Many New Arrivals at the,
Southern Shorthand and|
Business University, the
School Noted for Its Thor
ough Course of Instruc
, tion.
It pays to attend a Business School,
of reputation—an institution that
makes thoroughness of preparation its
hobby.
That is ju • the reason so many
young people from various parts of
Hie country are now making theii wav
lo the Southern Shorthand and Busi
ness University, of this city, to master
its p aetical courses in Shorthand.
Bookkeeping. Banking. Typewriting,
etc.
Last night Miss Ethel Whitworth, a
most worthy and ambitious student,
left tlie Southern to accept a position
as stenographer and assistant book
keeper with a large manufacturing
concern in Florida, beginning on a
salary of $75 per month. This posi
tion was secured for Miss Whitworth
by the managers of the Southern,
whose vigilance in locating their grad
uates knows no bounds. This fact is
borne out by the evidence that more
stenographers are employed in At
lanta that attended the Southern titan
the combined number from all other
Business Schools In this city.
The people learned that the Southern
teaches the best systems known to the
world.
That it turns out the best qualified
Henographers and bookkeepers in the
shortest time possible.
That the business men give prefer
ence to its pupils w-hen in need of high
grade office help.
Some of the Southern’s pupils have
accepted and held shorthand positions
after one month’s instruction, and
quite a number after from fwo to three
months’ instruction, but. as is the case
in all schools, such records are excep
tions. The Southern prefers that its
pupils remain in school from three
to six months and better qualify for
better positions—that’s why the busi
ness men prefer the Southern’s pupils,
Tw;o pupils recently entered the
Southern, paying the regular rates,
with free scholarships in other schools
in their pockets.
One of the most common ailments
’hat ha 4 working people are afflicted
with is lame back. Apply Chamber
lain's Liniment twice a day and mas
sage the parts thoroughly at each ap
plication. and you will get quick relief.
