bigger DEMAND FOR
COURSES IN DRAFTING
Graduates of the Columbia School Of
Drafting Have Right of Way" for
Government Appointments.
SOON TO ENTER FOURTH YEAR

| With a heavy enrolment already in
progress. the Columbia School OF
Drafting is about to enter its fourth
year. The fall term begins September
LA. though the classes have been run
ming all summer The demand for the
summer courses has been unprecedent-
ed this year, as demonstrated by the
| fact that the classes have been wei
filled all through the summer months
The demand for the graduates OF the
Columbia School Of Drafting has been
Increasing remarkably, owing TO the
splendid record that previous grad
yates have made. Just this week
large manufacturing firm sent its
agent TO this city TO secure six first
class craftsmen. These were selected
from among the students and grad
yates of the Columbia School OF Draft
ing.
The graduates of. this school have
been particularly successful in passing
the government examinations for the
positions of topographic craftsmen,
and passing the examination means
practically certain appointment The
Forestry Service, Reclamation Service.
Agricultural Department, the Geolog-
ical Survey. and Coast and Geodetic
Survey have recently received appoin-
tees who are graduates of the Column
bia School OF Drafting.
One of the secrets of the success of
the courses of this school is the fact
that they are thoroughly practical. 1t
has been pointed out that this is the
age of specializing and the Columbia
School has recognized this truth by
making its courses conform to the
needs of the day. The students are
prepared not only TO be able to secure
good positions. but to hold them and
become indispensable TO their employ
ers 1t is the rule that the graduates
of this school make rapid advancement
when they enter the profession for
which they have trained.
