A BUSINESS EDUCATION NECESSARY TO SUCCESS IN LIFE. There is no other calling in the world so full of wonderful opportunity for the really-prepared as is the profession of business. Read the newspapers for the names of men and women who are making history and you will iind a great preponderance of business people ln your lists. An invention becomes worth while only when it is commercialized. A great book means little until somebody's money markets it. Churches, libraries, hospitals, schools, colleges, parks, play grounds, theatres, grand opera--all are made possible through the accumulation of money, and the accumulation of money is ONE of the great functions of business. Ask a lawyer lf in his profession a. business education ls necessary or important, and he will tell you that it is most important-he will tell you that the ability to understand the ramifications of business life is one of the highly important qualifications in the px-active of law. I-Ie will tell you that the lawyer needs to know bookkeeping and accounting in order to understand his clients' problems. that he must know business organization and management, and that he must understand trade principles and customs. Ask the minister if he needs a business education, and he will tell you that one of his biggest problems in the handling of his budget-the proper dis- tribution of the money upon which the church and its activities are supported. He will tell you that he needs to know how to buy, howlto plan systematically and how to get the most out of his resources. Ask the farmer and he will tell you that the day has passed when the farmer who cannot keep books, calculate profits and analyze business propositions can hope to succeed. And to verify the statement you need only to look about you to be certain that successful farmers are also business men. And so you might go through the various occupations in which men and women earn a living, and you would find in each of them a need for a. knowl- edge of business. The laborer in the shop who knows something of business has an opportunity to become a foreman, and from a foremanshlp he may graduate into a proprietorship. The housewife needs a business education because it is she who distributes the family earnings, and too often unchecked household expenses ls the rock upon which families are wrecked. Given a thorough business education the youns person of fair ability and considerable industry will invariably succeed. A nne thing about a business education is that it puts its possessor in the way of immediate employment at good wage with every opportunity in the world for advancement.
