SMMW In our offices we have dozens of letters from the great Typewriter Companies askinsr us for our EXPERT GRADUATES for positions with the biff business houses of the West. Unconsciously, but naturally, nearly every one of these letters begins by saying that they are referring us the "MORE ADVANCED CALLS." WHY should business firms thus single out the Mosher-Lampman Business College as the NATURAL, LOGICAL place to get young men and women who are trained for these more ADVANCED POSITIONS, where the biggest salaries are paid? It's because, as business men have time and again said, they have found Mosher-Lampman Graduates to be the best trained, most efficient, accurate and satisfactory. You, would be interested in hearing the story of how Mosher and Lampman laid their plans to found and operate a high-grade business school that should fit ambitious, brainy young people for the big, high-salaried positions, as Court Reporters, Expert Accountants, Etc-but YOU WILL BE MORE INTERESTED in knowing that, although the Mosher-Lampman Business College is less than five years old, the call for our graduates has become so great so far beyond the supply that the Mosher-Lampman College now absolutely guarantees you a good position upon graduation. Think what this means ! A few months spent in the Mosher-Lampman College, the school located in palatial new quarters, which are the delight of our students and the envy of our competitors pursuing to graduation a course that , is more interesting ana iascinaimg inan a novel ana tne stepping into a fine position with the training and opportunity necessary to sucqess. Then think of the company you'll be in surrounded by far-seeing yours: men and women whose pleas ure is their work, whose ambition is to climb a little higher than their predecessors, and association with whom will be an inspiration to you. Scores of young people from all part3 of the West have already enrolled for the Fall errii, Beginning iwionday, We have both day and night sessions, and we are prepared to care for students of all degrees of advancement, rooms and add your name to the long list of those who will start September 2d.
