The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-06-25

John A. Coe, president of the American Brass company, speaking last night at the exercises of Post Business College at the Waterbury Womenis club, told the Al gradu- ates that there are three eras in business life: the period of appren- ticeship; the journeyman stage; and the final stage of research and development of new and better ways to do a thing. He enlarged on the last era in his talk, pointing out that this one makes for progress insofar as the individual is con- cerned.
 Following the exercises last even- ing the annual prom was held at the auditorium and some 300 couples took part in the dancing.
