A course costs less than idleness. OPEN DAY AND NIGHT Wake up! Get up!! Hurry up!!! Study up!!!! Work up!!!!! Time’s up!!!!!! Pay up!!!!!!! UP ’ S THB WORD! Are You Aiming - in That Direction? If so, a course in our institution will open up before you a world of new opportunities. There is a sense of independence in being uhle to say, no matter what comes, you possess an education that has a commercial value, and one that will endure and stand by you when everything else fails. The reason that the majority of young men and women fail to get, and hold good positions is expressed in two words—NO PREPARATION. When you go to a business man’s office to ask for a position, he will ask you the following questions; “('an you write a clear, rapid hand? Can you keep my hooks? Can you take my dictation? Can you write a good business letter? (’an you use the Typewriter? Can you add a column of figures correctly? Can you make out a receipt? A bill? A statement? A note? A draft?” If you can do these things correctly and well, you are wanted. If you cannot, there is nothing for you. In nine cases out ot ten, the answer will he: “Go learn them - I am ready for you as soon as you are ready for me, hut I have no time to teach you even if I could.” When you have mastered these studies in our school, you have solved the question permanently, More than that; you have put yourself in a position to rise to the top. The reputation of our school attracts young people from the most refined homes in the country, whose "parents know their surroundings here will be wholesome and congenial, and who also realize that, notwithstanding the moderate outlay of money required, the college affords the most excellent facilities fora sound, practical training. Will you spend a few dollars, and throe or four months to increase your earning capacity for a life time? / You risk your whole life’s success every day you delay getting ready for success.

Bond, the best teacher of that art 1 ever saw. lie is not only skilled in the art but imparts to others the knowledge necessary to make them skilled penmen. Some of the finest specimens of l’en Art 1 ever saw were the product of his unerring pen. In addition to Mr. Bond being a skill ed penman, he is a splendid disciplina rian. He would come quietly to a class of two hundred boys with a smiling “good morning", proceed to place the exercises on the black board; the re sult of which was. in less than a half- minute; each boy was not only orderly, but endeavoring to follow the drill or exercise. To, those desirous of obtaining the best training, to enter the business world, l would advise, that they let Prof. Bond prepare them for a position' of trust and remuneration. There has never t>een a time in the history of the world when so many good positions were open to trained young men and women as now and the number is con tinually increasing. Considering fortunate those that take courses with Prof. Bond, 1 am, Very trulv, * J. M. M.AKKEY. Ex-County School Commissioner \\ are County. VIEW OF STENOGRAPHY DEPARTMENT, WITH PICTURE OF PRO?. R. H. EOND AT THE RIGHT. -Macon, Ga., July 28. 1907. To Whom Concerned: ll affords us pleasure to state that the bearer hereof, Prof. R. H. Bond, for a period of nine years, was in our employ as instructor in the com mercial branches and Principal of the Penmanship department ot the Georgia-Alabama Business College, giving entire satisfaction during the time. Prof. Bond is quiet and dignified in manner, a good disciplinarian and a careful, methodical worker. He is uniformly popular with the students, who never fail to progress rapidly nnderhis instruction. We feel that Prof. Rond is entitled to special commendation on account of his exceptional skill as a penman, being recognized as Jone of the most expert in the entire country, an! he has unusual ability in imparting this skill to others. With advanced thanks for any courtesies or consideration extended Prof. Bond, we beg to remain, Very respect full v, E. L. MARTIN, President Ga. Ala. Business College. Since coming to the G. M. College, one year ago, as Principal of the Commercial Department, Prof. R. H. JBond has grea»ly enlarged and strengthened that department. He has z roved himself a good organizer, a thorough teacher, an enthusiastic worker, and a polished Christian gentle man. Under his management the department has steadily grown, and it is now drawing patronage from several Southern States. The Board of Trustees endorse his work und commend the department to any who are seeking a thorough business education. (Signed) Jr.o. Conn, Geo. D. Case, J. E. Kidd, Adolph Joseph, D. B. Sanford, E. E. Bell, Julius A. Horne, Miller S. Bell, R. B. Moore, L. C. Hall, J. T. Allen. During the absence of my stenogra pher, the past summer. Miss Katherine Tatum, who recently finished her course under Prof. R. H. Bond, filled the place very acceptably. Miss Tatum takes dictation with sufficient rapidity and she reads her notes readily, \\ ith a little* experience she will soon become entirely efficient. A good literary education gives her a decided advantage over many sten ographers. Wm. E. REYNOLDS. President G, M College. Prof. R. H. Eo.id. Dear Sir: 1 want to say a word of commendation for the efficiency of your pupils, lor 1 have employed one of them, Mies May Farmer, for sometime past with grout satisfaction.
