AMERICA IS FACING A GREAT CRISIS— but many of our people do mot realize it. ....Thousands of Boys and Girls are facing a turning point in their careers but fail to see the path leading to the ambition-crowned heights of success. Trained workers are needed today as never before. The future of America may depend upon their united efforts. Boys and girls who are equipped for efficient work can “help win the war,” while securing better positions for themselves and making rapid personal advance ment. The only thing standing in your way is lack of training. You will never get very far in this world at manual labor. Muscle is always re latively cheap. Brains are always at a premium and especially at this time, when so many po sitions must be filled quickly. You can learn our system of shorthand and typewriting in 8 to 12 weeks, and we will secure for you a good position. We have started thous nnds of young men and women on the road to success in the Business World. Let us do as much for you. We give free courses, along with Shorthand or Bookkeeping, in Typewriting, Penmanship, spelling, Business Law, English and Arithmetic. Our system of Bookkeeping is up-to-date and, when learned, can be used in any modern bus iness office. Don’t let any light obtacle prevent you from entering our Fall classes, September 3rd. Call and discuss your problems with us, or write us freely. You must remember that “Where there is a will there is a way”. We have shown the w’ay in thousands of cases. Our years of ex perience is at your service. Give us the oppor tunity of showing you how you can secure the necessary training to fit you for one of the many good positions open to ambitious young people. Act definitely. Call or write today. Decide that you will train for efficient service—that you will hold a much better job next year than now—that you will make the most possible of your life. We will glady help you.
