WOMEN BEING

 GOVERNMENT Stenographers and Type writers Are Wanted and Ready Service
 Offered
IS GREAT OPPORTUNITY
Juneau Night School 0f- fers the Chance For Students to Take
 Course

Prof. Mathews has received from John A. McIlheny, president of the United States Civil Service Com mission, a bulletin telling of the need of stenographers and typewrit- CTS for service with the government. "Women," he says, "are especially urged to undertake this office work training are urged to undergo in structions at once. Examinations are held in 450 of the principal cit ies every Tuesday.
 The Juneau night school is of fering. the opportunity to all citi- zens to secure instruction such as will fit them for this patriotic ser vice demanded by our government Never before has one been able to get this expert instruction at such is but about $250 month, and typewriters are free of charge to students.
 The classes in shorthand and type writing are now being conducted in the Juneau night school should be taken advantage of by larger number of people than at present are availing themselves of this op- portunity.
 The ''new rapid" system of short hand is being taught. In regard to this system the Bryant X Stratton Business College of Baltimore, one of the leading schools of it's kind in the United States says, that after Investigating all the systems of short hand, they consider that the new rapid" system is one of the most practical and up-to-date systems ev- CT published This system was es- tablished 30 years ago and is in general use in the East. In the past year it has supplanted other systems in five of the largest high schools in California.
 One of the main characteristics of this system is the easy running style of writing produced, and the great similarity it bears to long
The Alaska daily empire., 1917-12-07

hand. The nearer shorthand ap- breaches this style of writing the more natural will it be in execution. The principles of this system are based on this longhand style of writing.
 The success of anything depends upon it's foundation, and the alpha bet is the foundation of the whole structure of shorthand is so simple that a child can learn to write.
 The object accomplished by this system is to secure shorter road to stenographic success, greater leg ibility and speed and lightens ones labors. Every word is written from principle and is as legible as print. There are no words to memorize, everything being written from prin- ciple does away with the necessity for them.
 MT. Britain guarantees that a mastery of this system can be ac- complished in five months study, so that the student can do practical work at the rate of 100 words per minute. This is challenge wor- thy of consideration.
 The Van Sant system of touch typewriting will be taken up, this being the original method of touch typewriting and has won all the worlds speed records. This sys- tenn is endorsed by eleven of the largest typewriter companies in this country
 The class meets at o'clock to- night at the public school building This is an opportunity to prepare to do your bit.

The paper continues: In tho last

now has played such commanding
