THERE IS NO BETTER BALLAST FOR KEEPING THE MIND STEADY ON ITS KEEL . . . THAN BUSINESS. Lowell The world is competitive and only the most highly trained people are likely to succeed. This being especially true in today's business world, Palmyra offers the best training possible to its students in the Commercial Course. Most basic and necessary to this training are Typing I and II. These courses not only instruct in the mechanics of typing, but also emphasize the correct typing procedures and new methods, serving to give a well- rounded background. The two related fields of Stenography and Transcription constitute an important phase of the student's commercial course. Taking dictation, then transcribing the shorthand notes into standard letter form are most necessary skills to the future secretary. The administrative aspect of business is covered by the subjects, Business Law and Junior Business Training. Real estate, banking, check ing, and insurance are all part of these complex drills. Oflice procedures are put into actual use in a special course designed. to simulate the demands of an oflice career. The challenge of operating typewriters, duplicating machines, dictaphones, adding machines, and the newly installed I.B.M. Keypunch, is what makes office practice and the business course most enjoyable. Commercial students learn how to operate both Typewriters and the IBM Keypunch. 'sxf
