Free Scholarship In
School Of Your Choice

The Tyler Commercial College
of Tyler, Texas, is positively the
only business college in the state
which teaches a thorough course
ofpractical, modern bookkeeping
and business training. Other
schools teach theoretical; some
Of them call it actual business,
but it is not. The commercial
room lof the Tyler Commercial
College is a community Of busi-
ness houses of various kinds,
Banks, Wholesale, Commission.
Real Estate, Retail, Insurance.
etc. Each student is engaged in
real active business, learning to
do by doing. Every entry made
by the student during his entire
course is originated by an actual
sale or purpose; it may be grocer
les, dry goods, realestate or stock
in a corporation, but the trans
action is really performed, and
every paper required in the trans
action, whethercheck, note, draft,
receipt, mortgage, deed or what
not, is filled out by the student:
contracts Of partnership are
drawn up and agreed upon be-
tween the parties forming the
partnership; articles Of incorpo-
ration are drawn up. Thru these
practical methods the students
learn business as well as book
keeping; they learn how to meet
one another face toface and trans
act business in a business way.
instead of copying theoretical
transactions from a text book, as
is done in every other CONNER
cial school in the state. 1T takes
more teaching force and better
teachers to teach our systems
and methods; our teachers are
not only teachers Of Bookkeeping,
but they must be well informed
on business customs. When a
student learns to do a thing by
actually doing it, he learns it thor
oughly, and with our practical,
face to face business methods we
are able to give the student
thoroug course of both book
keeping and business training in
less time than he could possibly
get the theory, on -so-called prac-
tical bookkeeping alone il other
schools.
We will give a free scholarship
IN the school of your clalea IL
any one finding another school IN
this state teaching both book
keeping and business thru prac-
tical business transactions as we
do. Similar practical methods
are used in teaching Shorthand,
.Typewriting and Telegraphy.
We believe in learning to do in
the school room that which you
must do when going into the bus
mess world, and it is this policy
that has made the Tyler CONNER
cial College Of Tyler, Texas, the
largest school Of its kind in
America.

Liberal party convention, which was

lined up for the impending struggle.
Alfredo Zayas, the present vice presi-
dent, is a candidate for the Liberal
presidential nomination, and has a
large following. The friends of Zayas
allege that Gomez promised to be sat
isfied with one term, and that he
would support Zayas for president
this year, but many of the followers
of President Gomez are today de-
handing that he be renominated. The
Conservatives have nominated Gen,
Mark Monocal for president. Monocal
is immensely popular, and the Mundo,
in an editorial alleged to have been
inspired by the President, declared
that Gomez is the only man who can
beat him This is believed to indi-
cate President Gomez wants another
term. If his old enemy, Vice Presi.
dent Zayas, is nominated by the Lib
erals it is probable that he will get
little support from Gomez, as the lat
ter would prefer the Conservative
Monocal to Zayas.

While the club house proper'is not
likely to be carried away, all of the
deer in that section of the country
have been hiking for the hills, and it
may be two or three years before club
members can enjoy this class of
sport.
Gen. Fridge and Maj. Craddock had
strenuous experience in escaping
from the oncoming flood. having walk
ed about fifteen miles to get aboard
train for Jackson, closely followed
by the rising waters, and as a result
both have about the largest and mos
