Mr.. g. E. Spohn, President,
&C" College of Commerce,
Madison, Wisconsin.
Dear Mr. Spohn:
| feel greatly honored in being Civ
en- this opportunity to express my APP
probation for what the &C. has done
for me.
You will remembers that I am the
third member of my family to attend
your school, sister and a brother
attending a few years ago. l also
had the example of a &C" graduate,
Mr.. Frank Schunk, Cashier of The
Farmers State Bank, Waunakee, Wis,
my employer before | enrolled with
you. So the question of where |
would get my business education was
easily settled.
Under the supervision of your most
able instructors, 1 made rapid pro-
gress in my work, completing the
Bookkeeping and Accounting Cours-
es in six and one-half months You
offer modern methods of business in
struction and able and efficient in
structors who are willing to help each
student, and under such conditions
a student should be able to make
good progress.
After finishing the courses in July,
| took vacation. AS l was partic-
ular about the place where / would
be employed l turned down three po-
sitions. taking one you secured for
me with the Kennedy Dairy Company
of Madison. This is a concern that
is growing rapidly, and will soon erect
a much needed new and larger plant.
There is work enough to more than
keep me out of mischief but | am get
ting twice the salary l was getting
before l took your course.
Last but not least, Mr.. Spohn, l
gained many good friends while in
your institution. l will always recall
with pleasure the happy days spent
there with them. This, believe, is
one of the greatest benefits college
can offer.
You have my heartiest congratula-
lions on your step forward in erecting
new school and adding more adj
vanced courses. Your institution will
undoubtedly become one of the fore
most in the United States.
Wishing you continued success, /
am,
Yours sincerely.
