FOR THE LARGER PUBLIC
SCHOOL STUDENTS.
There is no good reason why
young people anxious to be earn
1 ing something for themselves
! should be idle three to five months
! of the year absorbing all the
meanness in the country anc
! growing up like rag weeds.
Time is money and opportunity
too. He who will study only ir
i cold weather robs himself of his
j best chances of success by taking
! twice as long as necessary to gel
ready and beginning so far be^
hind in the race. It’s the fellov\
'j with nothing else to do, and nol
; the busy man, who suffers mosl
| from heat.
Taking a business course,short
hand or telegraphy during this
idle season is not half so hard or
health or morals as card parties,
socials, late hours and bad com
pany. Then, when the literary
course is finished, or the busy
season opens up your education
is not “one legged.” You can
earn a handsome salary.
It may not be out of place to
suggest that there’s no better
place to take such a course than
Memphis Commercial College, 46
N. Second street,Memphis,Tenn.
Here you can learn the famous
Byrne Simplified Shorthand in
three months or get the course
free.
