SATURDAY. NOYEilBER 10, i:«< BAGWELL BUSINESS COLLEGE Bagwell’s Business College will show that It has prepared and placed in positions a greater number of competent since June 1st than The Southern. Agrees to contest three students of the Chartier Against any three of The Southern. Again challenges The “Southern, ’’and proves su periority of Chartier Shorthand over Graham. stenographers Bagwell Business College has written the following letter to the president of the Southern Business College: Mr. A. C. Briscoe, President, Atlanta. Ga. Dear Sir: We note with much amusement your belated circular which you have distributed over the city in which you attempt to explain to the public why you failed to back up vour 11,000 challenge which we'accepted in June. Since you have gone to so much trouble and expense in attempting to explain why you refused to enter the contest under your own proposition, will you now be kind enough to still further explain why you refused to accept our subsequent proposition In which we repeatedly proposed to con tests six weeks pupil of the Chartier system against any threa months pu pil of your school. After your refusal to enter the contest under your own proposition, we made you the above proposition in order to prove that your challenge was not made in good faith, and that you had no Inten tion whatever to enter a contest which would enable us to demonstrate the superiority of Chartier shorthand over the Graham system. We even went so far as to 6ffer you $100 to accept this proposition. Now, Mr. Briscoe, If Chartier Shorthand is as inferior as you would have the public believe, why did you refuse to accept that proposition? Are you really afraid to contest a three months* pupil against a six weeks' pupil of the Chartier? You. recently published a list of students who you claim mastered your system in from one to two months. They why should you hesitate to enter such a contest, when you have been given every ad vantage both In time and in the number of students fr^m which to select? •*“ *“ BAGWELL RENEWS CHALLENGE. You state In your belated circular that the Chartier school has been in operation since June 1, and ask "Where are Its graduates?” Now, in order to prove that Bagwell Business College has prepared and placed in positions more pupils. In proportion to the number enrolled, than your school, and in order that the public might know definitely whose pu pils are best prepared, we make you the following propositions; PROPOSITION NO. 1. Each school will place on deposit $190. If you have prepared and placed In positions more competent stenographers since June 1 In propor tion to the number enrolled than we have, our deposit will be used in purchasing scholarships. In your school. ' If we have prepared and placed in positions more competent stenographers since Juno 1. In proportion to the number enrolled, your deposit Ir to be used In purchasing scholar ships In our school. Atlanta, Nor. 10, 19-36. To Whom It May Concern: It gives tne pleasure to state that I at tended Bagwell's Business College and School of Shorthand fifty-seven days, at tho end of which period I was able to take dic tation ln^ the ordinary transaction of busi ness and have" been doing so ever'since leaving the school. I take pleasure lu cutuuiendjug chanter's system of shonhnud to any one desiring quick mud satisfactory results. JOSEPH II. DONNELL. The sttfteiuent of Joseph II. Donnell Is lit erally true, he being able to fill the place of onr regular stehogrnpher, who was off on leave, without difficulty. I know he attended Bagwell's Business College only fifty-seven days. . Fourteenth Judicial District Court. Markvllle, La., Oct. IS, 1906. Bagwell Business College, Atlanta, Ga. Gentlemen: Replying to your favor, beg to sny that T have l>oeti using Chartier Shorthand for Court work for almost it year, and find that It meets every require ment. from the point of view of speed and legibility. I am tislug the system Just ns I learned it while a student, without any additions lu the way of word signs or contractions. I hare never studied any other system of shorthand, and. therefore, atu not lu a po sition to pass Judgment upon relative mer its of Chartier ami other systems. How ever, I have taken testimony side by side with writers of other systems, and in each Instance met wltl) less difficulty in read ing my notss. I recommend Chartier Shorthand to you highly. ,It Is easy to learn, easy to writo and easy to reud, ami at the tame time It, Is so perfect that It meets every demand made upon It. Very truly yours. M. A. 8T. ItOMAIN. If you desire to enter a business college that teaches the most practical and up-to-date systems, and vhere you will receive courteous treatment, we would be glad to furnish prices and full particulars. BAGWELL BUSINESS COLLEGE, 198 PEACHTREE STREET/ ATLANTA, GA. If you really desire to know where the-"graduates of the Chartier system are," accept the above proposition. Proposition No. 2. « , Each school will deposit $100 us above. The Southern Business College will select any three of Its pupils who enrolled since June 1, without a pre vious knowledge of shorthand, to con test publicly against three -pupils who entered Bagwell Business College since June 1, and who had never studied shorthand prior to that date. I^ the Graham pupils are more proficient In speed, In writing and In accuracy in reading shorthand, our deposit will be used to purchase scholarships In your school. If the Chartier pupils excel the Graham students, your deposit will be used to purchase scholarships In our school. A committee who will* have full and final authority will con duct the contest, rending entirely new matter selected by them. This gives you five months’ time, and will, there fore, avoid the necessity of your ,"vio lating the rules of pedagogy',” which you have claimed would make you lia ble to the rldlctib of the public. Now. Mr. Briscoe, you have written a voluminous circular denouncing Chartier shorthand—a system you have never taught and cannot teach. You are called upon to test the relative merits of Chartier and Grahutu short hand not by patented phrases, but In a manner which the general public can understand and appreciate. You have spared no effort of In sinuation or denunciation. We have made you offers us fall* «s \ve know how to word them. We now demand that you give evidence of -the courage of your convictions. We owe it to ilir'v.Ming p.'npl. i.f thi- » -imiiv !■» have this matter settled once and for all time. What will you do about it? In Justice to Bagwell- Busin**-•< lege and to the public whom we both serve, we hope to receive an Immediate acceptance of th* above offers. Respectfully. BAG WELD BUSINESS COLLEGE. J. O. Bagwell.

The anonymous card, however. Is of such a character that to Ignore It and leave it unanswered might leave the Impres sion on the minds of some people that shore was some truth In the charges or Insinuations contained In It. or that there tv as some foundation on which to base. these charges. It is unneces sary for nle to go Into a defense of the enter department bn this.line, for to nil uf,Prejudiced people of ordinary Intel ligence It . will at once be seen that there could be no possible Incentive for anyone connected with the department •to act dishonestly as between the pub lic and the department. The water works Is owned by the people; It Is their property, und ruri for their bene fit., Tho hoard of water commission ers, who are the managers of this pub lic service, are all gentlemen of high standing and of unblemished character In this community. They serve the city faithfully and unselfishly, and re ceive no compensation whatever for their service. So far as I know, no complaint has ever, been made to the department that has not received prompt and careful consideration and been corrected. The writer of tills card suggests that you open your columns to anonymous writers to deni with these questions. This Is the way of the assassin. I such a policy was adopted by any rep utable paper, no one's character or reputation would be safe In this com munlty. If anyone has a complaint against the department, let him be mail enough to make It known to the au thorities, and then If he does not re ceive tho proper treatment, he cun lay It before the publlr and sign Ills name to It, without resorting to-tho cowardly alternative of assassinating the char acter and reputation of people under a nom de plume. The writer of the-card published in your paper endeavored to explain to tne what he really meant, but I must cr .lless that what he said to me and what he wrote In Ills original card, and also in his letter of explanation to me, Is so much at variance that It Is Im possible for me to recoliclle one with the other. I furnish you herewith the original card, together with the letter or ex planation, which I,request that you publish In parallel columns together with this card of mine, and let the peo ple draw their own conclusions ns to What he did mean.
