The fall term will begin Sept. 7 , 1903. Pupils ma.r
S enter at any time , but better work will be accomplished by be-
8 ing present the first day. Our school is complete in each de8
U partment. We have the best equipments that can be found 8
S m the state for good work. 'Ve own our own buildings , sitc 8
and equipmcnt , and we are here to stay. 'We employ none but
first-class teachers. Our school is different in many respects 8
S from the ordinary high school or university. 'Ve aim to de8
velope the mind by teaching subjects that can be used in our 'it '
every day life. Our school is not intendcd for those that have
S the time and money to spend six or eight years in getting an
8 education. We select those subjects that a 111 U1 or lady will : .1-
use in their daily life whether in professional work or on the .
8 farm. To those that wish to get work after completing our g
course and prcparing themselvcs for the work , we will say
that t11ere has been no difi culty in finding places. 'l'here is ' I
S no better place to secure an cducation that will aid you in a 1
practical way. There are mau ) ' reasons why the young men
, and women of this locality and abroad should attend this \
S school in Broken Bow. V'Ie have no saloons , no ga"lbling R 1
dens , 110 bowling alieys , 110 place for icllenc'm ! ' and vice. W e ' ;
