SPECIAL ADVANTAGES.

In the first place, we have an
ideal location for a school Of this
kind. Chickasha is a railroad cen,
ter and distributing point for South,
west Oklahoma. The fact that 1t is
business center, gives this school
an advantage in placing its gradu-
ates. More than twelve hundred
graduates from this school have been
sent out to hold good business posi-
tions throughout Oklahoma and ad,
Joining states. We have established
a wide reputation for excellent and
thorough business training. This is
a splendid asset to our pupils as we'll
as to the school.
Chickasha is clean city. morally
and otherwise. 1t is a city of good
schools and strong churches. The
attractions of large city life that
draw the attention of young people
from their school work. and some
times to their ruin, are not present
here. The city administration is
always diligent in keeping undesir-
able characters away. Pool halls
and gambling halls are not in evi-
dence. The shows which Chickasha
has are good and we also have
league baseball team that will afford
he necessary amusement and re-
creation.

THE GATEWAY TO PROMOTION

offers to men and women greater
opportunities than business. Every

ness world today has an opportun-
ity to climb to the very top. 1t is a
field of endeavor in which properly
directed effort is always rewarded.
There are openings fitting the capa-
cities of all classes OF men and
women. Business furnishes oppor-
tunities for the qualification Of every
type of ambition. There are no limi-
tations to the possible accomplish
ments in the business world, and a

FACTS THAT YOU MUST FACE.

Preparation and training is abso-
lutely necessary to success in any
line, and especially in business.
1t is very difficult to get the
average boy or girl to realize the
fact that the lack of preparation is
life's greatest handicap, and that the
time to avoid 1t is right now. Com
paratively few young people grasp
this fact, and from this small group,
we get our leaders in every voca-
ton
Every employer in the country will
tell you that 1t is extremely difficult
to get well qualified employees for
the better class Of positions.
People who are uneducated for
some special line of work must be
content to do unskilled labor.
If you think that you will be salts
fled to work hard all your life at the
commonest tasks with no opportunity
for promotion, then abandon the idea
of going TO school, What you do to-
day determines what you will be to-
morrow.

NoDFRATE COST.

Our rates OF tuition are printed on
this circular. We also state briefly
the advantages offered. such as
buildIng. equipment. courses, faculty
facilities for securing employment,
for graduates, low cost OK board
while attending school. etc. These
statements you can easily verify by
n visit to the school. These are tne
things that you will consider IN max,
ing your decision as to what school
YOU will attend. In all OF these
things this school will compare
favorably with the largest CONNER
ciaI schools OF the South and West
There is no school in Oklahoma
that has done more in the way of
training young people for business
and placing them In business posi-
tions than the Chiekasha Business
College.
The Chickasha daily express. (Chickasha, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1899-current, 1921-12-17

I We are aware OF the fact that
parents in considering place to
send boy or girl to school will
seldom decide In favor Of large city
providing school advantages are
equal In smaller city. therefore we
strongly urge that You investigate
our school and see for yourself. You
will be pleased that you have taken
the trouble TO investigate before de-
Gliding. If you cannot come yourself,
ask some friend to visit the school
and report to you. or write to the
Chamber of Commerce here. or to
any bank in Chickasha, or any re-
sponsible business or professional
man here. In these days OF tele-
phone, telegraph, quick delivery of
mail, and such facilities for securing
information. II will be an easy mat
ter for you to investigate and to
know.

COMBINED COURSE

We advise all who can afford the
small additional expense to take
both courses. Anyone with average
ability can complete both courses in
seven months. With thorough
knowledge of both courses any young
man or woman is fully equipped to
meet the demands of any line Of
business. This involves very little
more expense and about two months
more time, and the advantages are
incalculable as a much broader field
Of work is opened than by taking
one course.

THE BOY OR GIRL EQUIPPED
WITH TRAINING

The boy or girl that is equipped
with a training in shorthand and
typewriting, and has a thorough
business education, will find the
doors of opportunity thrown wide
open and success standing in the
doorway with open arms.
You may easily test the truth of
this statement
Apply for a clerical position in any
business or profession, and you will
always be confronted with the neces-
sity of having this special training.
Or you may be able to advance in

WHAT ABOUT YOUR FuTuREG

1t will soon be time for you to
earn your own way in the world
You will have responsibilities; you
will have problems you cannot
escape them. Usually these respon-
sibilities come to you when they are
least expected.
If, in your youth, you are doing
nothing TO prepare for the future;
If you are not taking advantage of
your opportunities for securing an
education that will increase your
earning capacity, you may expect to
be in a few years where most men
and women are whom you regard as
failures.
The kind Of future that you
+ look forward to depends upon
how you make use Of your
school opportunities.

DEMAND FOR OUR GRADUATES.

DEMAND FOR OUR GRADUATES.
The past year has indeed been the
acid test as to the value of a
thorough business college course.
During the war and for long period
after the war, we had more than
double the number Of calls for our
graduates than we could fill. The
demand for the past year has not
been as great, but even in the dullest
months we have been able to place
everyone who was qualified to do
both bookkeeping and shorthand
work. The greatest demand, not
only with us, but with all other com
mercial schools, is for graduates
who have completed the full course
of stenography and bookkeeping. It
requires a little longer to finish it
than it does single course, but it
is well worth the added cost.
Practically every authority on
business says that an era of bust
ness prosperity is just opening IN
and that the opportunities for young
people of education and training will
be the greatest this country has
ever known. Prosperity means little
to the one who does not prepare for
its opportunities.
In considering this question,
you can reach only one conclu-
sion, and that Is that prepara-
ton and education is best for
times of business depression as
we'll as for times of prosperity.
