F WE COULD SEE YOU
 FACE ID FACE

If we could see you face to face, we could prove to you be- yond the shadow of doubt the advantages of the famous Byrne Practical Bookkeeping and Sim plified Shorthand. Our book. keeping is one of actual business from start to findsh and our shorthand may be written either with pencil or on the typewriter. We could show you clearly how it is that we can turn out a bet ter stenographer or bookkeeper, and do it in three months less time than we used to teach the systems that are now being us- ed in other schools. This saving of three months time means much to the prospective student; at a conservative salary of $50 per month, the three months time would amount to $50, three months board at SIP per month Wonld amount to $36, or a total saving of $l96, to say noth- ing of the fact that the student of our school gets three months practical experience, while the student of the other school is just finishing his course and has no experience.
 We have hundreds of gradu- ates holding the very best positi- ons to be found in our larger cit ies. We have more calls for our graduates of Bookkeeping, Short hand, Business Administration, and Finance, Cotton Chasing or Telegraphy than we are able to supply. You may enter with us at any time; our work is practic- silly all individual instruction. Thorough preparatory work in English branches is given free. Write for catalogue; make your arrangements to enter at once, that we may soon have the pleas ure of placing you in good posi- tion. Tyler Commercial College. Tyler, Texas.
