The School of Your Cli oice
The Tyler Commercial C ol-
lege of Tyler, Texas, is posi-
tively the only business College
in the state which teaches a
thorough course of practical
Bookkeeping and business train-
ing. Other schools teach the-
oretical bookkeeping; some of
them call it actual business, but
it is not. The commercial room
of the Tyler Commercial College
is a community of business
houses of various kinds, engag-
ed in real active business work;
it teaches one to do by doing.
Every entry made by the studnt
during his entire coure is origi-
nated by an actual sale or pur-
chase, it may be grain, it may
be groceries, dry goods, real es
tate, or stock in a corporation ,
but the transaction is really per-
formed and every paper requir-
ed in the transaction, whether
check, note draft, receipt, mort-
gage, deed or what not, is filled
out by the student; contracts of
partner ship are drawn up and
agreed upon between the parties
forming the partnership; arti-
cles of incorporation are drawn
up, officers elected and a corpo-
ration formed a3 any large cor-
poration'jwould be formed in the
busineas world; banks are or-
ganized and operated just as a
National batik should be opper-
ated under the National laws.
Through these practical me-
thods, the student learns busi-
ness as well as bookkeeping,
they learn how to meet one an-,j
other face to face and transact
business in a business way in-
stead of coping theoretical
transactions from a text book,
as is done in every other com-
mercial school school in the
state. It takes more teaching
force and better teachers to
teach our system and methods;
our teachers are not only teach-
ers of bookkeeping but they
must be well informed on busi-
ness customs. When a student
learns to do a thing by actually
doing it, he learns it thorough-
ly, and with our practical face
to face business methods, we
are able to give the student a
thorough course of both book
keeping and business training
in less time than hs could pos-
sibly get the theory or so called
practical bookkeeping in other
schools.
We will giye a free scholar-
ship in the school of your
choice to anyone finding another
school in this state teaching
ooth bookkeeping and business
through practical business
transactions, as we do. Sim-
ilar practical methods to those
used in our Bookkeeping and
Business Training course are
used in teaching Shorthad and
Type writing and Telegraphy.
We believe in learning to do in
the school room that which you
must do when £?oing into the
business world, and it is this
policy that has made the Tyler
Commercial College the largest
school of the kind in America.

ling how we teach Telegraphy,

ing-Business Training, and the

gin an era of sidewalk building.
The ordinances provide that the

quired to build sidewalks when
so ordered by the council. Let
all property owners take notice,
and if ordered to construct side
walks, do not get mad, but get
about the work. Alderman

vide for a janitor at the cemetery
