This fact is borne out by the evidence that more stenographers are employed in At lanta that attended tbe Southern than 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 stenographers and bookkeepers in the shortest time possible. That the business men give prefer ence to its pupils when in need of high grade office help.

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 p eter the Southern’s pupils.
