Thc Clinton School of Commerce
was At-Ilome on Thursday evening
and Priday afternoon to the citizens
of town and a large number took the
opportunity; of dropping in to see
what manner of institution it was.
The studentswere at work and tine
courteous instructors, Miss Ward and
Miss Stone, explained to the visitors
tine interesting stages of the course.
Students are allowed to take either
the Pitman or the Gregg system
of Shorthand and in the com-
mercial department thee) .131iss sys-
tem of bookkeeping is taught and the
school is fitted with offices where
buying and selling Is carried on ,just
as in actual business offices. Also
there is a complete banking system
and the students are taught to deseos-
it and draw money, write cheques,
stake drafts, etc, It looks like a
very complete 'business training and
students turned out from such an in-
stittition should be well fitted to en-
ter business life and should not be
frightened by the sight of a set of of-
fice books.
'l'hottgh those at the head of this
training school have a thorough know-
ledge of their work and a'high ideal
as to standards, they are by no mean
indifferent to the more social side of
life and after showing their guests
through the work rooms they invited
them into the tea room, which was
made beautiful with flowers and presi-
ded over by daintily gowned maidens,
where a cup of tea, sandwiches and
cake refreshed one for the further du-
ties, of the evening or the afternoon.
The staff ares glad to welcome visitors
any Wednesday afternoon ,but after-
noon tea is not the usual order.
