1338 of 244$ advertisements
for help specified a business
training, and 524 of the re-
maining 1107 advertisements
were for positions that office
assistants grow into- No oth-
er profession can claim one-
fifth as great a demand. In
fact this proves that there is
a greater demand for business
training than for all other
trades and professions; the
average income of a lawyer
is $1500, of a doctor $1800,
others in proportion, while
the average income of a bus-
iness man is $3000 a year.
There can be no question but
that the busipess world offers
you the best opportunities.
You can be sure of success
if you enter the world of bus-

mercial College. You must be

America, with an average an-
nual enrollment of over 3600
the last five years, is indisput-
able evidence as to the merit
of our courses, for no inferior
school could ever build up and

The old saying. “Jack of all trades and master of
■ none” doea^not apply to us. We do one thing only.
I; Think, work? study, investigate just one thing. Concen-
I trate all eur energies on one thing. And will not deny
that we believe we have mastered it. That one thing,
j k of course, is making abstracts of title that are accurate,
complete, unerring—Able to stand unimpeachable till
