Success to it.
The parcel post system is of great
convenience to the public. It fills a
long felt want that express companies
could or would not meet. As an
adjunct to the rural free delivery,
alone, it is of inexpressible benefit.
That the usefulness of the system
will be increased, there is not the
shadow of a doubt.

will be pulled off by the students of
room four of our public school and

help her eat it, so don't disappoint
her.

The Students of room four will

Atheleti: Society. There will be a

Warning.
Do not make the mistake that
those who FAILED have made. Do
not hesitate and postpone. How
many people do you know who are
dreaming the best part of their lives
away, always intending to do some-
thing but always putting it off when
the time to start doing it arrives.
Hesitation and putting off are the
lign posts on the road to failure.
Now you have good intentions.
You want to eucceed. You would
like to enroll in our school and make
a success, but do not over look the
fact that good intentions cannot be
cashed unless they are carried out.
In a few short month our practical
systems and methods of instructioa
actual business drills will make you
a thoroughly competent bookkeeper
and stenographer. Master one or
more of these courscs and you have
assured yourself a prosperous future
Our graduates are in great demand,
not only because of their true skill
and proficiency, but because our
school has a wide reputation for giv-
ing its students a practial knowledge
of office routine.
We can point out to you one hund -
red of our graduates who have suc-
ceeded as you are longing to suc-
ceed. You can succeed. Other
people—those who are succeeding
already—did not possess any more
ability than you.
If you cannot enroll now, wrije us
why. We have helped many to ac-
complish their aim. Write us aeon-
gdential letter at once. Capitial
City Business College, Guthrie, Ok
lahoma.—Adv.
