THE BLISS BUSINESS COLLEGE.

Bliss Business College, Lewiston, Maine,
has grown to be one Of the largest insti-
buttons of its kind in New England. The
total enrolment for the last year was
522 students, 80 per cent of whom were
taking the combined course of study,
which requires two school years for
graduation. Out of the great number
of the graduating class for the past year
not single one to date is unemployed.
The Bliss system of actual business,
which is the result of years of study of
its author, F. H. Bliss, published at Sag
NAV, Mich, is in use from the At
lantlc to the Pacific Ocean in the largest
business colleges of each State. The
Gregg system of shorthand is used in
the shorthand department and statistics
show that out Of fifteen hundred cities
teaching shorthand in it's public and pri-
vate schools, 947 of these are teaching
Gregg.
Stenotypy, which is machine short
hand, is taught in this department, Bliss
College being the OILY school east OF
Manchester, N. H., in position at pres
ent to teach this subject, which is the
latest acquisition to modern efficiency.

has Just been published and copy OF
