George W. Parrott, chairman of the business men's committee, will make a report on progress. It Is believed that the work of the past week will assure the organisation of the exchange as planned. The committee will ascertain the probable membership and make a defi nite proposition to the chamber of commerce.

Not Opposing Exchange. ”1 do not wish' to be placed In the position of opposing the market ex change proposed by the chamber of commerce. As a mattei 1 of fact, I started a movement for an exchange before ft wus ever thought of by the chamber of commerce.” This Is the statement of A. V. Cur ran, manager of the Southern Ex change, whose proposition to the grain dealers' association was given In The Georgian a few days ago. “ft was several months ago,” he continued, "that a number of my pa trons, men whose business requires that they know, the condltloh of the markets all the time, asked what ar rangement could be made to have quo tations furnished them. I made a personal visit to the of fices of tho V. P. Randolph Company. Philadelphia, and asked what could be done. The company said If an asso- elation was formed In accordance with the Boykin law, the wire could be had under the same conditions that I had It. "That Is. the office rent should be „ ild, the operator paid, with a nominal cost for the wire. The whole would amount to about 12,000. I had then decided to locate In Washington city, and, of course, had no Interest In the xised exchange personally, caring e whether the proposition of the Randolph Company be accepted or that of tho chamber of commerce. T notified those who had come to me, however, of what the Randolph Company offered. One can see that this did not affect me In the least, as would not be In Atlanta after Janu ary 1, when the proposed exchange Is to start business.” CITED TO COURT BY THE REVENUE AGENT Special to Tho Georgian.

To Whom It May Concern: I have been attending Bagwell'a Business College now six weeks, and can take rapid dictation with ease. I am satisfied that Chartler's Is the easiest and the best short hand system In existence; that It can be comprehended In . a shorter time, written faster, can be read more easily than any other sya- tem. Every character Is made so plain that one can not help but grasp It readily. I have found It to be all that It had been recom mended to be, and will advise any one who wishes to take up a busi ness course to visit this college by all means. • Very respectfully, ELLA BROWN. 187 Rawson street, Atlanta, Ga.

DORMITORY FOR YOUNG MEN, View Showing Interior of One of tho dooms in tho Dormitory. Atlapta, Ga., Oct. 25, 1906. To Whom it May Concern: This Is to certify that I have been attending Bagwell'a Business College for the past two months Asburn, Ga, Oct. 16, 1906. Professor J. O. Bagwell, Atlanta Ga: Dear Professor—You will per haps be pleased to learn that I The achool occupies-the hand some and historical LEYDEN HOUSE, situated In one of the prettiest resident sections of the city, next door to the GOVERN OR'S MANSION. There Is no unin viting side entrance; no narrow and dusty stairways to climb; no noise 'and publicity ot tho street. This feature will appeal strongly to thoso who appreciate the effect of attractive surroundings upon character and success, and espe cially to ladles of refinement, who, for various reasons, wish to take a business course. The school has superior conven- aywaSBKfcfcv TEACHERS. A college Is no stronger than Its faculty. Bagwell’s Business Col lege has teaohers of ability, spe cialists In their respective depart ments. Every member of the fac ulty Is a college graduate, and all of them have been highly trained In present-day business methods and In the art of teaching, both by special preparation and by yeara ot practical and successful experience. B. J. FERQU80N, Principal Bookkeeping DopartmonL boy or girl who Is entrusted to our \ care will not be neglected Jn tho things that pertain to noble, manly and womanly character. The dor mitory saves the pupils at least 28.00 to 210.00 per month on board, for the same accommodations at a boarding house which would cost from 220 to 225 per month. The school Invites the most careful In spection of tho dormitory through out. Where they may be placed un der the watchcare of the Presi dent. The object of the dormitory Is to furnish a pleasant and wholesome environment for young men, and to reduce their expenses by providing NICE ROOMS AND GOOD BOARD AT ACTUAL .COST, 212.50 per month. Many a bright and capable boy has been ruined |n character and his bright est hopes blighted by sending him away from home to the city with out placing around him the proper safeguards against Idleness, dissi pation and Immorality. To such young men the course becomes a curse rather than a blessing. Wo wish our patrons to feel that the PROF. C. O. HILL, Principal Shorthand Department. have a nice position paying me 260 per month and my work, so far, la giving perfect satisfaction. 1 believe that you have the beat school in Georgia and I will always recommend It every chance I get. Chartier Shorthand Is all and more than you claim for It. After I had been In school only ten days I could write short business letters read ily. I was In school only about three months when I accepted the above-mentioned position. V Sincerely youra, J. S. RAINEY. Atlanta, Oa., Oct. 25, 1906. Professor J. O.

Just sev en weeks from the day I entered your college I accepted a position with the Credit Record, 1428 Em pire building, and I experience no difficulty In getting out the corre- spondence. I always take pleasure In recommending Chartier Short hand and Bagwell's Business Col lege to any one who Is thinking of studying shorthand. .

No shorthand system has ever attracted such widespread Inter est and attention In so short a time; 146 of the biggest and best business colleges of the United States have adopted Chartier Shorthand during the past two years. This fact alone Is a liv ing contradiction of anything that may be said against It by (hose who are barred from teaching It. Our competitors are not expected to praise It; that would be bod business policy. The only thing they can do Is to "knock" It—to raise the cry, “No good.” GOODYEAR-MARSHALL BOOK KEEPING Cuts out all obsolete methods and all useless theory. Hence, students can complete the course In at least two months' less time than In other schools where they are required to copy over and over Imaginary ac counts from tablets and text books. A SCHOOL OF MERIT. There are four factors which de termine the worth and merit of a business college. 1. Its equipment 2. Its Instructors. 3. Its systems. 4. The time and «ne expense re quired.
