Our students have been uniformly successful in passing Civil Service ex-
aminations. In many cases, the instruction offered and the school’s stan-
dards tor graduation are beyond those required by the government. Those
who make the most of their opportunities should pass examinations with
distinction and rate high on the eligible list.
Those who are interested in government employment are invited to send
for information; also those who aspire to employment and career-opportu-
nity in private business.
Information will be sent without expense or obligation to those who re-
quest it.
