The new management, under the direction of H. W. Henry and C. F. Boardman, infused new life into the school and it had a remarkable growth. In January, 1906, the school had outgrown its accommodations and had become such a factor in the city and the surrounding country that it was incorporated and the name was then changed to Central City Business School, as Syracuse is known as the Central City of New York State. In November of the same year a consolidation with the Henley Business School was effected and the Peck- Warner Building at 432-444 South Salina Street became the home of the school. l I The Henley This institution was founded in 1893 by Miss Susan M. Henley, who is no-w the principal of the shorthand department of Central City. This school had a humble beginning, but it also had merit, and grew rapidly in numbers and influence. In 1898 it was recognized by the Board of Regents of the State of New York and given Full Registration. It made an enviable record under the Regents and was awarded more State Steno- graphic Documents than any other registered school. Dakins' H Dakins' Business Institute was established in 1892 by the Dakin brothers, and conducted by them until October, 1911, when it was sold and became a part of Central City Business School. G. A. Dakin retired from the work of teaching, and A. W. Dakin, the well-known penman and pen artist, accepted a position as teacher of bookkeeping, penmanship, and pen art at Central City, where he is still employed. The Consolidated School Central City, the largest business school in all Central New York, embodies the strong features and employs the best teachers of all three schools. It enjoys the confidence and support of the business com- munity, and is the popular school with the young people of Syracuse and the surrounding country. 2 ' 4 r I PECK-YVARNER BUILDING, 438 SOUTH SALINA STREET Central City Business School occupies' the entire top iioor and a large part of the second floor of this modern building. It is directly Opposite the new Union Building, and has 100 feet frontage on Salina Street an:l is 100 feet deep, thus affording 10,000 square feet of floor space on each floor. The school rooms have light on three sides and there are many Skylights, and as ft result the roomsi are light and airy. Students study here under the most fivorable conditions. 3 H EADS OF DEPARTMENTS Th H W ll , The Henley, and Dakins' all consoiidat cl Three in One- e enry- a ace H. W.

Students of Central City Business School Assembled on Steps of Onondaga County Court House TNS DiClflll'0 was taken in March when the uttendaiice was much smaller than earlier in the term. ln addition to several liunrlrcd from the city ol' Syracuse, students were in ztttemlaxiieo during 191748 from more than 100 other cities und towns in New York State, as well as several from other states and from tlzuuulu and Cuba. The enrollment during 1917-18 has been by fur the largest in the history of the school. 11 Location HE Peck-Warner Building, the home of Central City Business School, is centrally located on South Salina Street fwest sidel, Nos. 432-444, the number of the entrance being 438. It is only a short distance below Jefferson Street, a few doors south of the Clark Music Building, and directly across the street from the New Union Building. It is in the business center of Syracuse, and enterpris- ing business concerns, well known in Syracuse and vicinity, are on all sides of it. It is an ideal location for a business school, being easily accessible to all railroad and trolley lines and is entirely free from objectionable features, a point worthy of the con- sideration of the prospective student. A Modern Building 'Peck-Warner Building, erected in 1903, is a modern structure in every respect. It has a frontage of 100 feet on Salina Street and is. 100 feet deep, thus affording 10,000 square feet of floor space on each floor. The handsome 'quarters occupied by Central City were arranged for its use according to specially drawn plans, and as a result we have a suite of rooms that are almost ideal for a business school so far as arrangement is concerned. The proper heat- i11g, lighting, and ventilation received due attention, and nothing was left undone to promote the welfare of the students. School Equipment School equipment is an important factor in train- ing students for business. The furnishings of Cen- tral City Busin.ess School are in keeping with the modern, up-to-date building in which it is located. The study halls and classrooms are supplied with school furniture of the latest and most approved style. Every student is provided with a. desk in which books and supplies may be properly cared for. All class instruction and dictations are given in separate classrooms, so that the elegantly lighted and well- ventilated study halls are reserved for study and individual instruction. Typewriting Departments Our large typewriting departments always attract the attention of visitors to the school. Two ad- jacent rooms with accommodation for 130 students are equipped with standard machines of the latest models, 151 in all being provided for the use of the students. We use all the new visible or writing-in-sight machines, and these are kept in excellent repair and are replaced by new machines. when they no longer do good work. Our equipment includes L. C. Smiths, Remingtons, Monarchs, Underwoods, and .Smith-Premiers, and every graduate has an opportu- nity to become proficient in the operation of all these machines. The new copyholder device is a unique feature of this school, and has proved a valuable aid in teaching the touch method of oper- ating a typewriter. i OFFICE OF ,CENTRAL CITY BUSINESS SCHOOL This office is opvn from 8 a. m. to 6 p. m. every business day of the year for registering new students and securing D0Siti0ns for giiaduates. 13 WW Ult bookkeeping course covers the theory of accounts from the simplest transactions to the most difficult: the use of a variety of forms of books, beginning with the simple form of journal, ledger, and cash book and leading up to the more difficult books with special columns. Early in the course, notes, drafts, checks, invoices, etc., are introduced, making the work at once interesting and practical. Theory and Practice During the course the student is engaged succes- sively in the following lines of business: Grain, Grocery, Tea and Coffee, Carpet, Furniture, Hard- ware, Dry Goods, Produce and Commission. He opens and closes books in single and double entry. He is drilled in the principles of' debit and credit, the manner of handling business papers, and the use of the various books. He engages in business for himself with a cash capital, which is furnished him in college currency. He deposits money in thc bank, draws checks, keeps his bank account, proves his cash, buys, sells-in fact, conducts. a business which is a counterpart of the real one except for the value in the commodities and the currency. Banking The advanced Bookkeeping Course includes up-to- date work in bank accounting. The organization of National Banks, the Clearing House system, and the theory of banking are thoroughly covered. The stu- dent, acting as banker, receives deposits, sells drafts, discounts paper, certifies checks, protests notes, etc. Many students who have finished this course are successfully holding positions in banking houses. The Post-Graduate Business Course Includes Cost Accounting, Practical Banking, Auditing and Advanced Practice work. Special columns are used in the various books, and the balance ledger is illustrated in the use of a purchase ledger and sales ledger. Sets of books for the Bank, Commission House, Retail and Whole- sale Hous.es and Manufacturing Concerns are used, and corporation bookkeeping, the use of the voucher system and cost accounting are also taught. The card ledger and loose leaf devices are explained and illustrated and the student becomes familiar with all the more common legal documents. BOOKKEEPING STUDY HALL 15 V HE stenographer is now a necessity in every business enterprise of any great importance. No business man who has ever had the serv- ices of a good stenographer would think of getting along without one. The good stenographer is always in demand and no calling offers better opportunities for advancement than does stenography. The good stenographer must write shorthand rap- idly and be able to read the notes accurately. More difficulty is experienced in reading than in writing shorthand, and the business man when calling upon us for a stenographer frequently says, Give me a young lady who can read her notes. Under our system of instruction, 'where students are given dicta- tion from the first day and are required to read everything they write, this difficulty is obviated. Then, the good stenographer must be a rapid and accurate operator by the touch method, must spell accurately, and must have sufficient knowledge of words and English construction to produce a perfect transcript.- Our course is planned to develop these qualifica- tions. What System? You may have your choice when entering this school. We teach and recommend Gregg Shorthand, 3 16 the popular, up-to-date system, but we also teach all Pitmanic systems-Benn Pitman, Isaac Pitman, Graham, and Munson. We have capable, experienced teachers in all sys- temsi, use the most up-to-date text-books, and can guarantee the best results in -the shortest possible time. Every year several students come to us from other schools to take our advanced work or finishing course and to get the help of our Free Employment Bureau ln securing a position. It is very gratifying to all such to know that they can. continue their own system without any loss of time or confusion of systems. This is not possible in the small school where only one system is taught. What School? Good teachers of shorthand are an absolute neces- sity, and there are none better than those at Central City. They have been teaching this s-ubject for years, as a glance at the faculty page in this cata- logue will show tPage 67. and our students get the benefit of all this experience. The principles of shorthand are put before the students ln such an in- teresting manner that they acquire them in the shortest possible time. No time is lost in acquiring sipeed, as this department of the work is ln charge of teachers who have trained hundreds of stenogra- phers for business positions and whose aim is to have students make the most of every dictation.

We are in need of two male stenog- raphers wlho have had some little ex- perlence and can correctly handle mercantile correspondence, and would be pleased to be put in touch with them should you know of any. Thanking you for your favor and hoping to hear from you promptly, we remain Yours truly, Gregg shorthand is a comparatively new system but it has become very popular. It is written without position or shading and with the slant of long- hand. As it is taught at Central City by experienced teachers, success is assured.

Gentlemen: In reply to yours of the 21st inst.,' we will say we are as much in the dark as ever and we do not wish to take the responsibility of making up this order without your giving us just what sizes or half-sizes you want. We have enclosed the order as Mtr. Parker sent it to us, and you will find it calls for four pairs of shoes, sizes 2V2,' to 5, Should we give you one of each size it would take six pairs. Kindly put on this order just the sizes you want in each lot and we will make them accordingly. We think, however, you had better have at least one pair of each size and half-size, as you will then be able to Ht and please your customers. Kindly put in the sizes and return the order at once, and oblige, Very truly yours, Benn Pitman, Isaac Pitman, Munson, Gralham and other Pitmanic systems are taught in this school by experienced teach- ers. Beginners may choose the system they wish to learn, while those who have begun the work in other schools can finish here without changing systems, and when com- petent will have the services of our Free Employment Bureau in getting a suitable position. E consider typewriting equally as important as shorthand, and beli-eve that students can become good operators only by well-directed, systematic practice. Our students are at all times under the personal direction of an experienced teacher and no careless or haphazard practice is permitted. Typewriting by Touch This is the latest method ot teaching type- writing, and it means that students learn to operate the typewriter without looking at the keyboard. By this method students are able to write much faster and at the same time more accurately and with less strain upon the eyes. In addition to the handling of business cor- respondence, stud-ents a're taught to copy and tile letters, to make out lcgal and business forms, and to do tabulating and manifoltling. Candidates for ia stenographic 'diploma are required to have on iile a given number of perfect pages of typewritten matter, a given number of perfect copies of letters from short- hand notes, a number of legal papers transcribed from shorthand notes, to pass a copying test, and a test of speed in taking dictation direct on the typewriter. They are also required to do satisfactory work on circular letters for several hours' continuous practice.

Its faculty now includes two ot' the best penmen of this country, and that means of the world-R. W. Johnson and A. W. Dakin. Mr. Johnson is a graduate of Chillicothe Normal and Pen Art School and is especially gifted in the use of the pen. He has been with Central City for nine years, but is now on leave of absence for military duty. The management has several teachers under consideration and an excellent pen- Inan will be selected to till his place during his absence. A. W. Dalcin is a teacher of more than thirty years' experience. and has a national reputa- tion as one of the best penmen and pen artists that America has ever produced. lie has charge oi' orna- mental writing, pen art, engrossing, designing, and illustrating. t, C Without good handwriting young men and women in business are greatly handicapped, no matter what their other attainment:-1 may be. Indeed, it is often the passport to a good position, and many ol' those who secured employment during the past year owe their positions to their good handwriting. Business writing should be without flourish or ornamentation, and it should be written with ease and rapidity. Our daily drill develops a simplified style that is legible and uniform. as well as rapid in execulion. It ments the most exacting counting-room requirements, and is what the business man requires-as plain as print, This is the Siyll! of businvss writing liulght at Cl'1lll'l1l City Business Sc-lmol.

E 00 Arithmetic O course of commercial study is complete un- less an important place is given to arithmetic and rapid calculations. Accuracy and rapidity are essentials in this work, and cur course is so arranged as to secure these results. Daily drills are given in rapid addition, and in the shortest methods of bill-making and of computing interest and discount. In our regular classes students are given a thorough review of the principles of elementary arithmetic, and are taught, in a most thorough way, the prin- ciples of percentage, interest, discount, partial pay- ments, exchange, stocks and bonds, equation of accounts, partnership settlements, etc. Commercial Law This subject is presented in a manner so novel and interesting that it is relieved of the monotony that usually attends its study in commercial schools. Many make the mistake of trying to t-each too much, and because of the volume of' matter presented to him, the student fails to grasp the really essential points. By a series of graded lessons, Spelling, Correspondence These s.ubjects are closely allied and they often receive too little attention in business schools. The ability to construct a good letter and to spell cor- rectly are qualifications very valuable to anyone who would enter business life. We give daily drills in spelling and test the students' progress by semi- monthly reviews. Our drills, on punctuation, capital- ization, the correct use of words, the practical rules. of grammar, business phraseology, and the form of which have been prepared by an experienced teacher and reviewed by an eminent lawyer, the student is enabled in a short time -to acquire a clear and definite knowledge of the principles of business law, and ls not compelled to waste time in wading through a voluminous text-book. and Practical English a business letter are sufficient to prepare the students for practical work in correspondence. Not only are model letters written, but each student is led by easy steps to construct letters on a variety of business matters. The manner of making enclosures of various kinds, the postal regulations regarding the different classes of mail matter, and the nice ques- tions ot' business etiquette, are a few of the matters tnat make up our course in business correspondence. Duty lt ls your patriotic duty to do your best for your country durlng these strenuous times. Excellent Opportunities Few people realize the number of excellent positions ln the government service, even when conditions are .lor- mal, but at the present time under war conditions the demand is so great that it has been quite impossible for the Authorities to meet it. The Governments Need One of the most urgent needs of the Government ln these trying times is for stenographers and typewriter operators in NVashlng'ton, D. C. BookkeeP0l'S IEW-l Clerks are also very much needed. An olilolent clerical force is necessary to the Government for the successful pl'0Se- eution of the war. A Message From the President of the U. S. Civil Service Commission In a recent announcement the President ol the U. S Clvll Service Commission states: The U. S. Government is ln urgent need of thousands of sten01-TFIWYIBFS and typewriter operators. All who pass examinations for the departments and oillces at Washington are assured of certification for appointment. A Patriotic Duty The some authority further SH-YS!

Come to Central City. Opportunity , D Clvll Servlce offers stenographers, typlsts, and clerks excellent oppor- tunities, as the Government pays well. Special Preparation Needed Experience has shown that even wlde, general education is not usually sufficient to enable a candidate to pass these examinations. but he must hecome familiar with the .peculiar features of them in order to get a high standing, The system ol' ratlm: papers ls technical, and one who has been thoroughly prepared in the certain features pertain- ing to -a particular examination and has been instructed in the avoidance of specillc errors, hos I1 great ildV1tl lUlR'0 over one of broader preneral educaton who has not had such preparation. Speclllc, not freneral, knowledge ls the essential thing. Central City Preparation Vxfe aim to prepare students in the shortest possible time and at the least possible expense. ln many eases this is simply an extension course with us, being a con- tinuation of one of our regular courses. Our pupils are assured painstaking: individual instruc- tion. As in every other department of the school, students get just what is promised. Students are thoroughly trained in the subjects of an exnmlimtion to the extent required by the Commission. This method eliminates the great waste in time and effort that would otherwise he necessary. You will find that contact with an experi- enced tencher is far more effective than correspondence instruction. Night School--Learn While You Earn Mnny of our Civil Service candidates are employed dur- ing 'the day and make their preparation in night school. This night school is conducted during: the entire year on Monday. Wednesday and Friday evenings. Individual instruction in the subjects for the various examinations ls given as in the day school.

This institution is an old established s.chool and is the largest business school in this part of the State. We make a specialty of training candidates for civil service examinations. fSee pages 35 to 40.7 Good teachers make a good school. Six members of our faculty represent a teaching experience aggre- gating one hundred and seventy-seven years, an average of more than twenty-nine years. Each of the proprietors is a specialist in his line of teaching, and students come under the direct influence of men and women who have had practical business experience. Remember this, the principals teach. The calls upon us for competent bookkeepers and stenographers. continue to exceed our supply of first- class candidates. We want ambitious young men and women of good character to train for these desirable places. ' This school maintains, at considerable expense, a Free Employment Bureau to place its graduates. Central City is known throughout the State. In addition to hundreds in Syracuse, positions have been secured in Massena, Potsdam, Pyrites, Gouverneur, Richville, Carthage, Watertown, Canton, Edwards, Hermon, Benson Mines, Malone, Altmar, Wanakena, Fulton, Phoenix, Baldwinsville, Wolcott, Weedsport, Canastota, Oneida, Ilion, Herkimer, Utica, Albanwy, Kenwood, Cortland, Ithaca, Groton, Norwich, Niagara Falls, Detroit, Michg Cleveland, Ohiog Washington, D. C., and several in New York City. This school has full registration under the State Board of Regents and prepares students for Regents examinations in all the subjects, of its curriculum. We are anxious to have all former students con- tinue their friendly relations with the school. We shall always be glad to be of service to them. We frequently have opportunities to secure fine positions fo'r4t.l1ose w'ho have had experience. When you want a position register with us and very likely we can place you satisfactorily. Time is money. If you intend to take a course, do not delay. We invite everyone interested in business educa- tion to visit us. We shall be pleased to show you our equipment and explain our courses of study. A careful examination of this catalogue and a perusal of the matter contained therein will make clear to everyone our ability to teach well, our up-1.o'date methods, and the good feeling of former students toward us.

The object of this registration is to raise the standard of business education and to enable the public to discriminate more readily between small, inefficient schools and those having ample facilities for giving a thorough business training. Advantages of Registration l The following are some of the' advantages of the registered business school as set forth by the State Education Department: An annual inspection by a representative of the New York State Education Department who will cooperate in every legitimate way to help the registered commercial schools. State certificates are granted to pupils of registered com- mercial schools who pass the Departmental exam- inations in the commercial and shorthand courses. Graduates of registered commercial schools who have completed an approved one-year course will be allowed 15 counts towards a qualifying certificate- law, medicine: etc.--upon request accompanied by a certificate of the principal showing in detail the work covered by the applicant. Graduates of registered commercial schools who have met the academic requirements as to education and who have been licensed to teach in the high schools of the State, are eligi-ble to appointment as commercial teachers. Department examinations for the beneiit of those who desire the commercial or shorthand certificate may be held in the registered commercial schools. Central City holds Regents examinations regularly in January and June every year in tl1e various sub- jects of its curriculum. Optional, Not Compulsory h While this ist a registered school, the Regents examinations are optional, not compulsory. We have no entrance examinations, and those who prefer may take any one of our complete courses and win a Central City diploma without taking any of the Regents examinations.

Central City Service lt is the aim of this school never to forget :1 student. livery graduate has a life membership in Central City Free lfmployment Bureau, and the managers of that bureau are always ready to exitend help when new positions are wanted. 'l'hey are always on the alert to help graduates to advance to better positions, and those who desire promotion are kept on the active list. No charge is made to either employer or employee. Central City is a permanent, reliable, Syracuse institution, and it has been under the present management for years. You need such a school back of you to win success in business. VVhy attend a small school with unstable inan- agement, little or no prestige, and few teachers, when you can enjoy such facilities at Central City at no greater expense when time is considered? You will atteird a business school but once. You owe it to yourself to attend the best.

It is well known that many men who have risen to prominence obtained the greater part of their edu- cation by attending night school. Many pupils who attended our evening school in past years are now holding good positions through studies pursued under our direction. Two Young Men working side by side earn the same salary. One pays for a six months' -course in our night school, spends his time profitably amid pleasant surround- ings, acquires a good knowledge of bookkeeping and learns shorthand and typewriting, and at the end of his course finds that he has saved considerable of his earnings, because he has been so busy he has had no opportunity to spend them. His employer admires his determination to get up in the world, and before a year has passed he has been given a better position at an increased salary. His fellow- workman has spent his evenings in idleness, acquired bad habits, squandered his money, and lost the respect of his employer. He loses his position and a more deserving man takes his place. Which of these courses will you pursue? Items TTRACTIVE rooms, well lighted, comfortable and convenient in every way. The same ex- perienced teachers as in the day school. The same subjects taught as in the day school. Students are permitted to take such subjects as they need and are advised not to attempt too much. Students may enter on any school night. Instruc- tion is largely individual. Students of all ages attend our evening school- some for advanced work, others for elementary sub- jects. Our individual instruction saves you from all embarrassment. An excellent opportunity is afforded to learn short- hand. We make a specialty of typewriting, have all the standard machines, and teach the touch method of operating. We teach good penmanship, the kind that business men require-as plain as print. Short methods of arithmetic and rapid calculations receive careful attention. Civil Service preparation in all its branches thor- oughly taught in our night sichool. Ask for terms.

As a manufacturing city, Syracuse takes high rank. It is one of the great centers of the steel industry. The Solvay Process Company and thc Semet-Solvay Company, just outside of the city, fuinish employment to thousands of men and women. It has excellent shipping facilities and is the great distributing center for Central and Northern New York. The city has grown rapidly and the extension of the business district during the past few years has been very marked. Central City is situated in the heart of the business and shopping district and is one of the real factors in the business life of thi: busy ci-ty. Its graduates make up the office forces ot' these large industries. Education and Employment The City of Syracuse and the prosperous surround- ing towns afford unusual advantages to the ambitious young man or woman. The business activity of the city and its many institutions of learning make it an ideal place in which to obtain a business educa- tion and secure a remunerative position. Health-The Purest of Water To young people attending school in a strange city, a question of great importance is the general health- fulness of that city. Syracuse can boast that its sanitary condition is excellent, and that its water supply is the finest in the country. The fact that there has never been anything like an epidemic among 'our students ist largely due to the pure water with which the city is abundantly supplied. This water is brought from Skaneateles Lake, a distance of 17 miles. Attractive Features Nor'is it alone from a business point of view that we have reason to be proud of our city. With its fine churches, Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C. A., a great University, new Carnegie library, and art museum, it offers many attractive features. For those who take pleasure in outdoor recreation there are nu- merous public parks and squares within the city, and many points of interest nearby which may be reached easily.

A reputable school that enjoys the confidence of the businessi men of the community can render valuable assistance to its worthy graduates in the matter of securing positions for them. The aim of Central City Business School is to give its pupils a preparation so thorough that Central City' ' Central City as at present constituted enjoys the combined influence of three well-known and long- established institutions- The Henry-Wallace ffor- merly Meads' Business Collegel, The Henley, and Dakins', and businessmen turn to us when in need of office help. It is gratifying to us to fini the scope of our influence widening month by month, not only in Syracuse, but in the surrounding country. We have several calls nearly every week that we cannot they can do the work the business. world wants done, and then to use every effort to place them satisfactorily. We are proud of our record in this respect. On tl1e pages of this prospectus we present the portraits of a few of our students who are now in positions secured by us or through their own efforts. We wish space here would permit our giving more, but we will be pleased to furnish more com- plete information on this point to anyone interested. Facilities fill, because we have not the right applicant to recommend. At the present time the demand is greater than ever before in the history of the school, and the calls for help will far exceed the total enroll- ment for the year. Our experience has been such that we will undertake to place in a position every young man or woman who will complete one of our courses of study and prove worthy of our recom- mendation in all respects. Out-of-Town Employment Every year we have students who desire to locate in New York, or in some other large commercial center, after completing the course. Through our connection with the typewriter agencies and the National Association of Stenotypists, we are enabled to assist all such to secure positions. Former Graduates We wish all graduates of the consolidated schools would keep in touch with us. We can nearly always secure another position for you when you need one. We are pleased to do this without any expense to you. ,X WMI! -F ff IQ Syracuse Firms that Employ Central City Graduates On this page is shown a partial list of Syracuse Firms that employ our stenographers.

We urge young men from out of town to avail themselves of the advantages offered by the Y. M. C. A. Its gymna- sium is equipped with the very latest and most approved apparatus, so that every proper form of exercise may be had. Swimming, boxing, wrestling, basket ball, indoor baseball, and other games add enjoyment as well as benefit to the training received. Members also 'have the use of the reading room, game room and baths, and are invited to the social meetings and entertainments. It is a well understood fact that the Y. M. C. A. is non-sectarian. All creeds are embraced in its membership. The Young Men's Christian Association is the friend of the young man who is a stranger in the city, and here he will find a hearty welcome at all times. The Y. W. C. A. A kindred organization, the Young Wom.en's Christian Association, is build- ing a new home at 317 E. Onondaga Street, which will be one of the finest in the country. In the meantime our young ladies are welcomed to the temporary home and rest rooms. The social features are at- tractive and the environment the best, and our young lady students will always, find a welcome. r -'Af , .. THE Y. M. C. A.
