Great Opportunity For
Men
The demand for telegraph
operators was never so greaj
as at the present time, The
largest telegraph school in
America—equippep with over
a hundred sets of instruments,
miniature traiu system,
and train wire of a
main line railroad, all tele-
graph and freight blanks, tick-
ets, infact just as complete as
found in the best equipped
rail road offices, the best prac-
tical teachers to be obtained,
thoroughly experienced in
commercial and railway tel-
egraphy, station and freight
work—the Tyler Commercial
College of Tyler, Texas, is
unable to any ways near sup-
ply the demand upon it by
rail roads and telegraph com-
panies for operators. So far
this year we have had thirty
per cent more bona-fide calls
for graduates than we have
had students to takr up the
study of telegraphy. Just as
surely as a young man will
complete our course of teleg-
raphy and station work, just
so surely will he be placed in
a good positiou. The same
is true where our course of
bookkeeping, shorthand, sten-
otypewriting and cotton class-
ing or business administra-
tion and finance is completed,
Write for free catalogue.
Our studeuts are all ou the
leading South Western roads,
aud are holding high posi-
tions in the commercial world.
