If the local school were an ideal place for your boy or girl, you wouldn't think about sending him away from home. Under present con ditions, they doubtless need more self reliance, because they lack the power initiative, are wanting in breadth the scope of vision, haven't learned how to study, can't make for themselves and are ignorant of the fine art of business career. If so, their education should be continued in a school where discipline really means something, where person al supervision by the faculty is constant, where our service is rendered above everything else, and where manly and womanly character and condnct are held paramount to all other consider ations.
 Our school offers many advan- tages that no other commercial school can afford. It's location. excellency of environments, it's student body is made up from the best homes of the country, the faculty is second to none, it's discipline Is the outgrowth of long experience, tempered to conserve individual needs, just, sane and firm. One or two hun dred dollars spent on your boy or girl now may mean an un- bounded success for their future life. There is a time in every young persons life for them to consider an education, and if that time goes by, unheeded | by the parents, and they fail in the future, you are, in a meas ure, responsible for that failure.
 On the other hand if you en- courage the seed thought of an education when your son or dau- ghter is interested, it may mean the turning point in their lives, and will cause you much joy and happiness in the future. One or two hundred dollars spent on them is one of the best business you ever made. It will pay greater dividends in their future than anything else yon could bestow upon them.
