Nine hundred and thirty-sevrn students enrolled in the Y. M. C A evening school during last season, Thirty courses were offered. The aggregate attendance for the year was nearly 50,000. This is one of the largest evening schools in this part of the country and is attracting 8 great deal of notice on the part of young men as well as. older men and employers. i'lans are now being made for the next season which will " begin September 6. In addition to ,the courses offered last year, a course in foremanship will be offered. This will appeal particularly to those who are interested in large industrial plants and those who are looking for ward to a foreman s position in any organization. . 4 i Salesmanship, public speaking, ac- , countancy, commercial law, drafting, mathematics, advertising and elemen tary subjects will probably be among .the popular courses. , . Spare-time education is one of the greatest opportunities for young men. A great man has said that an individual's success or failure de pended on what he did with his spare time. It can be used to pay dividends or it can be used for mak ing debts. f ,-w. . r;A young man's leisure time usually begins about 7. If .he uses it for personal advancement and self-improvement he will develop rapidly. If he uses it for indulgence and phy sical pleasure, he will not only keep himself from advancing, but he is likely to drop back." Most all suc cessful men are those who have used their leisure time for self-improvement. ; The Y. M. C. A. evening school offers to any young man an opportu nity for self-improvement. Make your plans to attend school and choose your courses early. Students may enroll at any time.

But let us not close our eyes to facts on the optimistic side, such as these: The records of the Van Sant bu reau show that even in the dullest months of the past year it has aver aged two calls daily for permanent office workers. The best months averaged about four calls daily. This docs not take into consideration cans for short-time work, from which stu dents trained experience and revenue. The total number of permanent calls received was 60 per cent in excess of the total number of students enrolled during the year. While all agree as to the unpre cedented character of the past year, all agree likewise that this condition is but temporary, just as the abnor mal postwar acceleration of business was but temporary. s In order to be able to fill the certain future increase in calls business schools must have an immediate increase in number of students. Enrollment this month means preparation for a position sev eral months hence when conditions will have returned to prewar condi tions of healthy, normal prosperity. With the. poorest year in history Placement Bureaus providing a 60 per cent margin of safety of employ ment, young men and women will readily recognize that with increas ingly better conditions ahead they cannot make a better investment of time and money than in securing the training which will insure a well-paid position for them and a - competent worker for some employer of the future.

Address ADRIAN NEWENS, Director, 1103 R Street Small Classes 1 Solve Problem Of Instruction Omaha Institution Plans to Assist Backward and Shy Pupils by Individual Attention. Are the parents of Omaha per plexed about the selection of a school for their childen in September? Do your boys and girls require a tutor to "keep up" in class? Do they learn how to study? At the School of Individual Instruction, 3507 Har ney street, these problems are all solved. This institution is a non sectarian school for boys and girls and features intensive study, short hours, carefully supervised study and play periods, luncheon service and proper individual attention. That the restriction in the number of pupils in a class be made small as convenient, is an established factor in the education of the child. At the School of Individual Instruction the classes never contain over 10 pupils. The conclusion is logical that chil dren can grasp more in a class of this size than they can in a class numbering 40. Many times the child is bright but shy and backward. Such a child will be greatly helped by individual encouragement. This has made bright and energetic stu dents out of what appeared to be dull children. "Every child recites every day," is the motto of the school. The cur riculum for the year includes first and second years of high school, grammar, primary and kindergarten.
