SOUTHERN BUSINESS COLLEGE SHOWS
, WHITE FEATHER,
f ifil
Arnold Backs Down on His Own Proposition
to Contest Students.
Bagwell Business- College
Insists That Mr. Arnold
Either Contest or Admit
Defeat.
In order to establish unquestionably
the superiority of Chnrtler Shorthand
over the old system* nnd to prove onto
for all that It can be ma»tercd In one-
half the time, Bagwell Business Col
lege hn* on numerous occasion* pro
posed to contest It* three month*’ pu
pil* ngafnMt *lx months’ pupil* of the
old system*.
On November 23, through the col
umn* of the press, L. \V. Arnold, rep
resenting the Southern Shorthand and
Business College, which teaches the
Orah tin system, offered to contest three
months’ pupil* of hi* school against
three months' pupils of the Chartier
system. In bdth The Constitution and
The Journal of November 24, Bagwell
Business College accepted and was pro.
f eeding a* rapidly as possible to take
up with Mr. Arnold the arrangement
«J detail* for the contest. On Novem
ber 2ft, just two day* after Bagwell’*
acceptance, Mr. Arnold, fearing the
r< suits of the contest, suddenly called
It off for no sensible reason whatever.
Bagwell Business College Will Allow
Mr. Arnold To Make Hit
x Own Terms.
Now, Mr. Arnold, we propose to prove
once for nil that your proposition was
not made In good faith; that you have
never Intended and do not now Intend to
enter any content that will give u* an
opportunity to prove the superiority of
Chartier Hhorthand, and that you have
endeavored to mislead tho public. *
The only provision which Bagwell
Business College will make In the
term* of the contest 1* that it be do-'
elded by three Impartial and disinter;-
ested Judges, each school selecting o-
and the two so selected choosing
third; that the contest will show
relative merit* of the Chnrtler and i .
Graham System* of Shorthand, and
thut it will prove or disprove the claims
made by Bagwell Business College,
namely, .that the Chartier System can
be mastered In one-half the time re
quired for the Graham System; tho
judges shall decide all points of dif
ference.
Bagwell Will Deposit $500.
Now, Mr. Arnold, I will meet you at
any time and place you may designate
and we will go to any bank you may
select and each of us will deposit $500
as a guarantee of good faith.
Thl* leaves you no loop-hole through
which to crawl. The public believes In
a square deal, and unles* we are mis-
taken, your attacks on Chartier Short
hand and your personal Insinuations
will receive the contempt they Justly
merit. You can not now honorably
avoid the contest, when we are making
every concession that could he reason
ably asked. _ ...
Maine to California.
During the past three years more
than two hundred of the leading com
mercial schools, from .Maine to Califor
nia. Including the great Eastman school
at Poughkeepsie, N. Y„ have adopted
Chartier Shorthand, discarding Graham
and • many other old-llhe systems.
Whcrevor it has been Introduced It has
awakened Interest to the point of en
thusiasm.
In the face of this accumulation of
Indisputable facts. In the face of the
evidence offered by the thousands of
delighted Chartier graduates holding,
responsible and lucrative positions all
over the United Slates in every "line
of business and' In every profession 1 :'
In the face of the enthusiastic testi
mony" of the hundreds of Chartier
graduates who have been sent out from
Bagwell Business College to positions
of responelbllty and trust here in At
lanta and throughout Georgia, ' Ala-,
bama and South Carolina: In the face
of all tills mass of evidence, some of
our competitors In Atlanta, suffering
with the pangs of- Jealousy, stinging
with the sense of defeat, unable to
teach the system because of our ex
elusive right, have had the effrontery
to attack Chartier Shorthand and the
sincerity and honor of those who teach
it. If they really believe their otvn
statements that Graham Shorthand Is
■nual to Chavtler Shorthand, would
they not be willing to submit the two
systems to such a test as would settle
their relative merits forever?
, J. O. BAGWELL.
