Pretty good returns for a few ;

so! And ,'we have many grad ,

The high standard set by our
graduates is often emulated, but
similar
institutions. The following para-
graphs will exnlain to you the
reason business men and profess-
ional men usual'y give prefer-
ference to Capital Ci'y Business
College graduates.
When you graduate from the
Capital City Business College,
you will be able to write 150
words per mi due for not less
than five minutes consecutively.
The highest average speed of any
other system used, to the best of
our knowledge, is 125 words a
minute. The better training
means the better pay.
In the teaching of Bookkeep-
ing and Business Training, we
have made a radical change from
the ordinary time-worn method
of teaching. We do not teach
bookkeeping by having you copy
accounts from text books, but
