IN CHARGE OF F. A. PARSONS, M. L.

The purpose of this school is to make expert professional book-keepers ; correct accountants ; rapid and elegant penmen, and intelligent business men. The advantages offered here are such as no commercial college can give, since opportunities are presented to those who desire special knowledge in particular kinds of business for additional study in all the departments of Language, Literature, Science and Art.

ADMISSION.

Applicants will be received on passing satisfactory examination in the common school branches.

CURRICULUM.

Two years, at least, are required to accomplish what is proposed in the prospectus and the course of study is arranged for that time, but with special view to accommodate a large number who can spend but one year and wish to acquire sufficient knowledge of book-keeping and business to fit them for the management of general commercial enterprises.
