Don't Wait
Until the Fall
We are of the opinion that if you
are expecting to attend our school
you cannot give a reasonable excuse
for postponing entering until Fall
We can present sufficient proof to
convince you that the earlier you
start in to obtain a 'practical educa-
tion the better it will be for you. We
have now almost as large an attend-
ance in the Summer as in the Win-
ter. We offer every inducement in
Summer that we offer in the Winter.
Our past records show tha{ students
attending school In June, July and
August make as good progress as
those attending any other three
months of the year. This is due to
the fact that our school rooms are
cool and pleasant, and that our teach-
ers put forth the same effort in the
Summer months as in the Winter. H«
who enters now will finish in time
for a good position during the busy
Fall Season.
If you have what you think would
be a reasonable excuse for not at-
tending school before Pall, let ue
