gushing feature of the schools. A
bank and office as we'll as stores and
other business establishments are
run at the schools, so that each stu
dent may learn from experience the
practical workings of business insti-
buttons.
When the student becomes proficient
in his studies and receives his diplo-
ma the school guarantees Inn posi-
ton. If within six months after &C
cepting the position the student loses
it by the dissolution of the firm or any
other similar reason the student is
given another position within fifteen
days. The demand for graduates of
the college has always been greater
than the supply.
In this regard the schools offer
three propositions which are consid-
cred by some as being extraordinary
in the extreme. They are as follows:
First-If any bookkeeping grad
uate recommended by the Draughon
schools to a firm gets the books OF
the firm into bad conditions, the col
lege agrees to send an expert book
keeper at its own expense to straig-
hen the books.
Second-If after thirty days trial
one of the shorthand or telegraph
graduates does not prove to be as
competent as recommended to the
firm, the school will relieve the firm, OF
all responsibility Of paying salary
board or transportation, and the
school will arrange for the student
with this. Furthermore, another pc.
sition will be secured for the gradu.
ate.
Third-The school agrees to give
their graduates financial assistance IL
exchange for work until other posi-
tions are secured, in case they are out
of employment.

UNITED STATES AND GERMANY

The suggestion of an American
German alliance for the protection
of mutual interests in the Far East,
as against the special interests of
England, Russia, and Japan, meets
with much favor in semi-official cir
cles in Berlin. A high diplomat who,
for obvious reasons is not named said
on this subject:
"There already exists between the
United States and Germany an agree
ment that is tantamount to an UNI
written alliance for joint action and
mutual interests in the Far East, and
along the lines of which the two no
tions have been working since an
exchange of diplomatic notes in
Washington.
There are many reasons why the
United States and Germany should
stand shoulder to shoulder in the
Far East and progressive Germans
would welcome anything that would
bring closer the political relations OF
the two countries, so they may stand
alone in the Far East, as against the
grouping of other interests"
1t is stated in the semi-ofiicial cir
cles in Berlin that Germany will not
respond to the efforts of the London
newspapers to work up Il general
protest by the commercial Powers
against the action Of the United
States as to the tolls to be charged by
the Panama Canal
ut is only matter OF time, saiu
an official who is in close touch with
the German Government" until Eng
land, with her many possessions. will
clash with the United States inter-
csts and will find that the American
people do not always do what Eng
land wants. While the drumming
up of the colonies to come to the as
sistance of the mother country III the

cause Of the German danger, England
also has an eye on the American

are to be welcomed to the country
and the State.
The station, which it is said, the
Juniors will oppose,will be the means
of bringing more of that kind of peo-
pie to Virginia and the South, and
both need them. More than that, it
will advertise the State and bring in
creased shipping business to the Vir-
GINA ports.

be better conserving the interests

NOT A CURE FOR THE EVIL.

It is to be hoped that the reports
coming from Richmond that the
State Council of the Junior Order
of United American Mechanics will
oppose the bill to establish an immigra-
ton station at Hampton Roads are
without foundation in fact. We hard
ly think that the ground upon which
it is claimed the bill will be opposed
that undesirable immigrants are re-
ccived in this country-is material
for the reason that the defeat OF the
movement to establish the station in
Virginia will not cure the evil COM
planned Of, bcause the immigrants
will be received at other stations
and admitted to the country.
Many immigrants are now being
received in Virginia each year, anc
most of them are of the better class

in eighteen different states and terri:
tories, ranging from Washington, D

mendations from bankers merchants
and other business men. Mr.. Draugh-
on has made a point of making his
schools practical.
The Draughon school has a book
keeping and shorthand course, be-
sides which they offer special tele-
graph course and combined course
The bookkeeping course includes
bookkeeping, banking, business prac-
tice, pemanship, spelling, commercial
arithmetic, business letter writing
punctuation and commercial law.
Shorthand, typewriting business
dictation, penmanship, spelling, bus
mess letter writing, punctuation and
office practice are taught in the
shorthand course. The two courses
may be combined, if desired, forming
the combined course.
