Jack of All Trades
VERSUS
Master of One
The old day of the " handy man " has passed.
The " jack of all trades " the chap who
knows a little of this and a little of that and a
little of the other thing is having an awful hard time find
ing a job of any kind doing anything these days.
That's why the "diversified education" has become so
impotent -so helpless in helping the rising generation to
take hold of and do one thing well.
The mastery of one ability should be the ambition
of us all. It means not only a greater money reward
but it means that we, who do master one element of the
world's activities, do more to advance the progress of
the world itself.
And to gain that mastery! How shall we go about
it? Do those who are masters of surgery gain their
superability in a school graduating country practi
tioners? If we are to become masters of the science and the
art of business if we are to develop ourselves into
taruly expert Stenographers entirely efficient Ac
countantsdiplomatic Private Secretaries keenly ca
pable Telegraphers, can we become such if our tutors
themselves are not persons whose ability has been
demonstrated right out in the practical business world
itself.
Can those who teach from text books only teach us
anything more than we can learn ourselves by merely
reading the text books.
They cannot.
Let us emphasize that they cannot and do notl
And right there is where I believe a thoroughly
equipped, properly organized and carefully supervised
private school offers immeasureable advantages over
the public school that promises to teach everything.
Perhaps I am prejudiced.
But let us see.
Take Boyles College for example it is a success, a
big success. Starting in two rooms in The Bee Build
ing 16 years ago it has grown until it is the largest col- .:
School is over for this year, and vaca
tion Is now well under way. But vaca
tion brings Its problems, as wU as
school, and one of the greatest of these
is In connection with schoofltself. If
the boy or girl, who has Just flnlsncd
the high school course Is to oonttnue
on the way to higher and broader edu
cation, to a greater pinnacle of polite
or useful learning, then comes the ques
tion of selecting the school at which
such education Is to be obtained. If It
bo that the preparatory school Is to te
selected, then the problem Is not the
less Important; and for the same rea
son tho choice of a technical school, at
which practical Instruction In the myster
ies of commerce or Industry Is to be
obtained must come up for serious choice
and much careful consideration.
University of Nrbrnskn.
For those who are seeking the hd
vanced courses in the arts and sciences,
tho University of- Nebraska offers un
usual opportunities and advantages, It
Is a state school, but It ranks with the
great universities of this age, and Is
well equipped for the thorough teach
ing of tho higher branches of learning.
It offers to the student all the various
cuueges jnai maxe up tno sum or a
great university, each well prepared In
Its own sphere to Impart the knowledge
necessary to the acquirement of scholas
tic distinction represented by any of the
degrees conferred on those who have won
tho right to them by study, research
and discovery. Its scientific: schools are
especially well prepared, and doctors,
lawyers, engineers and other scientifi
cally trained men and women, who have
studied at Nebraska, are making good
all over tho world today as a result of
the training secured at the great state
school of Nebraska. Agriculture In all
Its branches, domestic science, muiic.
tho liberal arts and sciences, and all
branches of modern knowledge are
taught at the University of Nebraska.
Jinny Speclnl Schools,
If a special school is sought, Nebraska
has many .of them. One of lesser i f
these, and yet one that Is properly noted
for Its thoroughness. Is Hastings college.
It has advantages for study and devclp
ment that, perhaps, are not to be ob
tained at the larger school. York col
lege also comes In this list, and many
others will be found within the state,
offering attractions to the student, each
and all efficient and commendable.
For the p repertory work, Nebraska
also has a number of schools, one of
them, Browne!! Hall, a school for girls,
with many years of highly creditable ac
complishment behind It These schools
fit the pupil for entrance to the higher
Institutions, and at the same time so
well train and equip them that frequently
further attendance at school Is not con
sidered necessary In order to fitly adom
a proper station In life.
Technical Training.
Technical training Is a branch of edu
cation that Is rapidly coming to be looked
upon as most essential. Especially Is
this true of the training for commercial
life. No schooi In the west takes higher
WWmffiSmm
lift sWWMilWl iHMii
lege of its kind in tho United States, west of Chicago.
Its growth has been founded on the growing success of
its graduates. And their success has found its root in
the soil of the special training obtained in Boyles Col
lege. NowSno reasonable person could expect the school
that "generalized" in its training to have grown as fast
as Boyles College has grown or to have produced as
successful graduates as Boyles College has produced.
For there nevor has been and THERE ISN'T
NOW an opportunity for young men and women to
learn all about the complete mastery of one or more
important business sciences and arts such as that of.
fered by Boyle3 College.
You have no right to expect the "generalized"
schooling to equip you with the same ability that Boyle3
"specific" business training will.
And you will have less right or ability to com
mand as high a salary in the1usiness world, after com
pleting a "generalized" course, as you will when you
have completed a Boyles College Course and have been
awarded a Boyles College Certificate of Efficiency.

Boyles College preference send for our New Year

Many Tenchem Arc Taking Special
Training There.
"Teachers of the regular subjects 1n
public schools are fast learning the ad
vantage of being able to teach a special
subject and train pupils for a practical
vocation," says Mlsa. lone C. Duffy, pro
prietor of tho Van Sant school.
"If our school were conducted purely
as a normal training school," she adds,
"we could place all graduates In attrac
tive, well-paid positions as teachers of
stenography."
Instructors In increasing numbers aro
taking special courses in shorthand, type
writing, penmanship and other uuslneg
subjects at the commercial colleges and
are studying other vocational pursuits,
such as domestic science. It has become
generally recognized among educators
that he who can teach a specialty has
an Immense advantage' over tho In
structor who can teach only ordinary sub
jects of the ordinary school.
Van Sant school, which specializes In
stenography, has already prepared a num.
ber of regular teachers to become in
structors In Its special subjects, Miss
Duffy says. As she puts it:
"A proper and scientific business train
ing brings double opportunities ami
doubly certain results to teachers. Tho
teacher Is then assured of employment
and satisfactory salary, cither as teacher
or stenographer, or, better still, by com
bining the two and teaching stenography,
the teacher raises herself far above lice
former place. It Is a well-known fact
that competent business school teachers
draw larger salaries than they could get
In publlo school work."
IVIUTTON-CARIilSLE SCHOOL.
Select School for Girls at Lincoln,
Hiffbly Commended.
The Whitton-Carllsle school at Lin
coln, a select school for girls, Is very
highly recommended for the thorough
ness of Its training, Its splendid atmos
phere, and the general estimable quality
of Its work. The principals, Misses
Mary E. Whltton and Julie M. Carlisle,
are ladles of the choicest culture, and
thoroughly understand the problems of
fered In the training of young girls. They
believe that a girl docs the best work
and develops the nobleBt type of woman
hood where discipline Is tempered by
sympathy and tender solicitude. ' Tha
ideal school is the' development of tha
Individual girl, an Ideal which Is possible
only In a school where the number is
limited. The alms of this school are to
ward health and happiness, sincere and
unselfish living, and for accurate and
systematic habits of thought and study.
The curriculum Includes all studies from
the first primary to tho fourth high
school year.
Tho department for the younger chlN
dren is especially designed for children
without mothers and for those whoso
parents wish to travel at home or abroad
without interrupting the child's school
work. Children under 12 are under the
care of a nurse, when not In school.
In addition to the regular branches tha
curriculum contains French, German,
art, gymnasium, music and dancing. Tho
number of girls In the home department
being limited to twelve, makes It a real
homelike school rather than one with tho
atmosphere of a boarding 'School.
