This is an era of the greatest com mercial activity the world has ever known. The development of busi : ness is one of the marvels of the new century. A few years ago, science, as a factor in commerce, was little known and lesfc appreciated. The amazing advantages to business of intellectual attainments were utterly. without; recognition. Today, however, business has ; become ' a; con test in which the quickest .perception -wins, thus transforming the .counting room into, a battleground upon which' brain matches brain for supremacy and success. " ; Today the standard requirements of all men in business (old or young.) are higher than . ever before. Efficiency in business is demand " ed in every organization of men from clerk to president efficiency based upon exact know ledge of the fundamental or underlying princi ples of business. In answer to these demands have come ways arid means for business men and ambi tious young men to prepare themselves and to ' keep pace with the new order of things. ; The staff and faculties of great universities, m co operation with able and successful business men, .have been making a thorough study of business, to the extent that it has finally be come a science which has been reduced to a practicable teachable form. The LaSalle Extension University course offers the grandest opportunity for successful, achievements that the young man of the pres ent age has before him. It is the duty of every capable young man to investigate the possi bilities now. The Bee's Educational Offer For some time The' Bee i has .been deeply interested in the subject of greater efficiency in business, and has been making a study and, investigation of the benefits to be derived from courses of training, such as are offered by the leading universities, . The good work being done by the LaSalle Extension University of Chicago, in the interest of business men generally, and especially of the eager, earnest and anv bitious young man impressed us so favorably that we finally concluded arrangements for a limited number of twivyear scholarships in Business Administration of this University, . .. These scholarships will embrace a complete two year course in Business Administration, and will be pre sented complimentary by The Bee to those of its readers who are quickest to apply for them. A Diploma in Busi' ness Administration will be awarded by the LaSalle Ex tension University to those who complete the course and comply with the requirements for graduation, The Diploma is priceless to any ambitious young man it is a guarantee anywhere of an efficient business training, The only expense to those selected for these com plimentary scholarships will be for the special University text matter necessary to pursue the course, and The Bee has arranged with the University so that this text may be obtained at a nominal cost and upon convenient terms of payment, For the convenience of those applying lev these complimentary scholarships an application blank has been incorporated into this announcement, This application blank entails no obligation what' soever. In perfect fairness to all, on account of the limited number, applications tor Scholarships are numbered as received The LaSalle Extension University The LaSalle Extension University is an educational institution, char tered under the laws of Illinois. Its courses are utilitarian, cultural and professional. It places its educa tional facilities at the disposal of those who are now or have been denied resident instruction. The University is organized to bring to the largest number of inhabitants, with the mini mum expense and-inconvenience, the maxi mum amount of education and culture. It appeals for patronage solely upon the ground of fitness, ability, experience and good service. Its facilities are olfered to the following classes of persons: 1. Adult people who failed to secure the general edu cation they wished while young and who now desire to make up the deficiency. 2. The young man looking forward to a business career or, who desires to, equip himself for a professional pursuit, aud by reason of circumstances is unable t6 at tend upon, resident instruction. , ' Business and professional men who find the Uni versity's text matter, lectures and service bulletins suited to their special needs or who. wish to avail them selves of the" University's Bureau of Information and spe cial research facilities. . , .. . , j Before his University was established, it was necessary for those who desired a university training in business to attend such resident universities as Yale, Harvard or Dartmouth College. There were few, however, that were able to leave their positions or spare the time and expenses necessary for a two-year course. By the extension method of the La Salle University, however, this university course is brrught to each individual and a two-year scholarship in this institution be comes priceless to every earnest, ambitious and worthy young man.
