TELeGRAPHY FOR YOUNG WOMEN
 AS WELL AS MEN

Knowledge of IelegrapnY ana skill in it's use makes man val uable in many lines today. The large number of experienced cp- orators drafted and volunteering for service in the army ranks as well as in the signal corps have drawn heavily from the tele- graph operators and have left many vacancies in the railroad and telegraph offices. Likewise many have been diverted from entering these offices as opera tors, thus cutting down the nor mai supply of operators, which have always been available to fill the usual vacancies. This sudden and steady increase in vacant positions and the alarm ing shortage in operators to fill them, has drawn from the com mercial schools every advanced student. The Tyler Commercial College is placing their opera tors m responsible positions be- ginning at S75 % and more, with a general increase in salary now Tn prospect all over the United States, this increase to te largest for beginners. The Ty- Ter Commercial College is visited personally by officials of differ ent railroads and is asked to SUI : ply many more operators than is possible. MT. Loutz, Supt. Mid- dle Division, Sante Fe Railroad, in a visit to this school, recently asked for six if possible. We could not refer him to even SIX who did not have other positions already in view, and may not 7 able to send any more later. In fact, Mr P. F. Frenger, Supt. Tel, Union Pacific R. R, came in person to visit our school ar q wrote us, We can use all you can send of such high class stu- dents as you have sent us here tofore. :" The St Louis South western Railway Co.,, whose general offices and shops are To cated at Tyler, Texas, give Us their strong endorsement and hearty support. We have q main line train wire over which our students can get the opera tors messages just as they come to the offices of this great raj road. We are allowed to use every blank, form, report .boof, etc., used in railroad telegraphy and station work. just as this great railroad uses them. as well as all the blanks, record books, rate books. and sheets of tie Western Union Co. Mir. R. D. Cobb. Aud. St. Louis Sou Invest ern Railway Co.,, says, There $ a shortage of clerical hep, par ticularly at large freiqh ht and ticket stations, and any young man or woman proficient in rail road clerical work will, no doubt, find 1t easy to obtain employment on the railroads both in Texas and elsewhere, as similar cond . tions prevail throughout the en- tire country" " MT. w. J. Vii liams, Supt. Telegraph of the same road gave us good rec ommendation. With the support of this great railroad, We have built up an excellent school of telegraphy snd station work, teaching under their direction everything their operators need to know and use.
