GUES RIGHT OUT OF THE SOUTHERN BUSINESS COLLEGE INTO A $75 POSITION, WHILE OTHERS ENTER THE FAIL TERM 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 jus: the reason so many young people from various parts of the country are now making their way to the Southern Shorthand and Busi ness University, of this cit.v. to master its practical courses In Shorthand. Bookkeeping, Banking. Typewriting, etc. ixist night Miss Ethel Whitworth, a most worthy and ambitious student, left the Southern to accept a position as stenographer and assistant book i keeper with a largp ipanutapturiug I oneern in Florida, beginning on a [salary of $75 per month. This pasi- I t ion was seemed 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 tile evidence that moiy stenographers are employed in At lanta that attended the Southern than the combined number from all other • Business Schools in this city. The people, learned that the Southern leaches the best systems known to the world. That it turns out the best qualified stenogi aphers and bookkeepers in the shortest time possible.. That the business men give prefer ence to its pupils when in nded of high grade office help. Some of the Southern’s pupils have Jat eepted and held shorthand positions after one month's instruction, and quite a number after from two to three months' instruction, but, as is tile 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 p efcr the Southern’s pupils. Two pupils recently entered the Southern, paying the regular rates, with free scholarships in other schools In their pockets. One of the most common ailments that hate working people are afflUteu t4ith is lame back.
