do but drink, had they desired, there
was practically no drunkenness and
very little disturbance noticed any

you see on holidays, everybody was as
quiet as If ths day had been Sunday.'

Graham System Of

Shorthand in four weeks!
World-breaking records by the best
system of shorthand tn the world and
mule at the old reliable Southern
Shorthand and Business University, the
leading business school of the South:
located In this city; the school that has
double the patronage of any other busi
ness college In Georgia.
Students are enrolling dally at this
big school, forty having entered dur
ing April, while twenty-five or thirty
Is considered a good number for that
month.
If you want to stand In with the busi
ness men, you should attend the popu
lar Southern Shorthund and Business
University.
CLARENCE J. HURST.
A former student of the South
ern, who holds an Important posi
tion In Pelham, Ga.
The Graham System of Shorthand,
besides being the mdat scientific and
philosophical system' In existence, and
being capable of the highest rate of
speed, la also capable of producing
shorthand writers within a shorter
period than any other system known
to the world. We produce below a
partial list of Graham students who
studied at the “Southern/’ and who ac
cepted positions at tho expiration of
the time Indicated. We could add hun
dreds to this list. At the same time,
we would not crente the impression
upon the minds of the public that all
students make these remarkable rec
ords. A system worth learning should
be thoroughly mastered, so ns to reach
the highest demands of the business
and reporting world. To do this re
quires time and close application. It
Is because of the Southern’s Insistence
upon a thorough knowledge of the prin
ciples of shorthand that It has estab
lished such an enviable reputation.

Graham System at the

The Southern .Shorthand and Busi

Is accomplishing every day what has
never been done by nay other system
or school In the South.
If the so-called quick-easy new sys
tems wophl be honest enough to ad
vertise their "over-three-months" grad
uates It would be seen that nothing
unusual can bo done by them.
L. F. JOHNSON,
A former student of the South
ern, now with the Chattanooga
Car and Foundry Company.
Sir. Johnson says: “I derived
more actual benefit during one
month I spent at the Southern
than In three months spent at an
other college."
To show the popularity of tho Gra
ham system, according to authentic :
of the United States, 330 use tho Gra
ham system, which Is more than tho
combined number using Isaac Pittman,
Ben Pittman and the Munson systems,
and more than those using alt the other
remaining systems combined. It Is be
cause of the capacity of tho Graham
to meet the highest demands of court
reporting and general reporting that it
Is adopted by *o many.
It Is, therefore, the part of wisdom
for beginners to learn a system of
shorthand that may bs as quickly
learned as any and at the same tlms
meet the highest demands of tho re
porting profession.

the big school without delay. Many
are arranging to begin In -May. Ad

would save his money. He confessed
that, like thousands of young men In
Atlanta today, he did not see the ne
