CHOOSING A PAYING JOB.

Better Bookkeeper and Accountant.
There was a time when the work OF
the old gray-haired bookkeeper was
not very attractive one. He sat
bumped up on his tall STOOL making
ont accounts, and credited or debited
hie life away.
Today the better bookkeeper, the &C
countant, is a man to be looked up to.
He is the adviser of business kings:
the state recognizes him and upon ex'
aiming him and finding him pro-
ficient. grants him degree Of certified
public accountant.
He often opens his own Office and
works for himself or for his own
clients Just as a lawyer does. To the
young man interested in this kind Of
work, accounting offers a great field,
There are from four to FIVE thou
sand accountants in England, and only
about one thousand five hundred &C
countants in the whole United States.
You can see what demand for &C
courtants there must be-a demand
that cannot possibly be supplied for
years to come.
An annual or eemi-annual audit is
taken by the majority OF incorporated
business concerns, In the United
States there are about five hundred
thousand such concerns With only
a very limited number of accountants
in the whole country it is easy to see
that the supply of competent men Is
totally inadequate wonder that
the leading firms CT accountants com
