This is the definite pur- .,,. pose for which it was founded. We make no i apology for emphasizing that this is its dis- tinctive feature. On the contrary, it would be necessary to apologize if this were not so. There is no lack of schools of the high school grade either in the Northwest or elsewhere, but there is a lack of schools that are positively Christian. The rapid growth of Minnehaha Academy has shown clearly that there is a real need to be met. In 1913-1914 the enroll- ment was 112, while in 1919-1920 it was 424. Minnehaha Academy believes that true education consists of more than the acquisition of knowledge. It stands for the training of the heart as well as the head and the hand. Knowledge is power, as the old proverb reminds us, but it is a power that may be abused. In fact, the keener a persons mind has been trained, the more dangerous it is if misused. but on the other hand the more valuable it is to humanity if used aright. Minnehaha Academy aims to give the right direction to the lives of the young people entrusted to its care. There are three departments in the school, namely High School, Business, and Music. The various courses are fully explained farther on in this book. The instruction in all departments of the school is in the English language. A characteristic to rbe noted, however, is the offering of four years of Swedish in the High School De- partment. The school is owned and controlled by the North- western Mission Society, a part of the Swedish Evangelical Mission Covenant of America. The Students Minnehaha Academy makes its appeal especially to boys and girls in Christian homes. It seeks to maintain in the sphere of studies and school life the same atmosphere as prevails in a good homeaan atmosphere of cheerfulness, in- dustry and sincerity, and also of reverence and devotion. X .C Egg??? D Tyndafzugsimkg 7 CATALOG, MINNEHAHA ACADEMY That there is a homelike, sympathetic spirit in the school is the appreciative testimony of hundreds of former stu- dents. The great majority of our students are young people in their teens. This is the critical age in any person's life. The habits of thought and conduct formed during these years are not likely to 'be changed later. It is a well established fact that the largest number of people who ever become Christians make this decision during these years. The right influences at this period in life may do infinite good; the wrong influences Will'certainly do incalculable harm. The Teachers The greatest factor in a school is not its walls of brick and stone, nor its grounds and equipment. These things have their importance, but in the last analysis they are not the supreme test of the worth of a school. It is the teachers that give an educational institution its real character. The members of the Faculty of Minnehaha Academy are men and women of Christian faith and Christian experience. In their professional preparation they represent well-known colleges and universities located in various parts of the country. The teachers are always willing to give sympathe- tic attention to the individual needs and interests of their students. By training, experience in teaching, and personal character, they are worthy leaders of the boys and girls en- trusted to their care. Bible Study No education can be complete that omits the Bible, the Book of Books. The world has not outgrown the need of its living truths and never will. It is the greatest Book in the world even from a literary point of view. In its redeeming and uplifting power as the Word of God it constitutes the most precious heritage of the human race, and its greatest hope. To instill its divine truths into the minds of the ris- ing generation is to sow seed that will surely yield a blessed harvest. At Minnehaha Academy every student in school is in some Bible class. This is one of the fundamental rules of the school. The Bible itself is the textbook that is studied. The instruction is plain and practical, aimed at the heart 8 CATALOG, MINNEHAHA ACADEMY as well as the head. The deep interest in these studies constantly manifested by the students is a mighty inspira- tion to all friends of the school. All the Bible classes are taught by the President of the school, who thus comes into personal contact with every student. An Accredited School Minnehaha Academy is on the list of the schools fully accredited to the University of Minnesota. This means that the graduates of our High School Department may enter the State Universityeand hence also other colleges and uni- versitiese-without any entrance examination. This recog- nition by the University is a guarantee of the quality of in- struction offered at Minnehaha Academy. A considerable number of our graduates are now pursuing studies at higher institutions of learning and are making an enviable record. Self- Help Students who are dependent on themselves for an educa- tion often wish to find part-time employment. The school tries to find such work for all who may require or desire it. During the past school year a large number of students made their own way through school, at least in part. About thirty earned their board or board and room during a part or the whole of the school year. Others were paid in cash, the sum thus earned aggregating several hundred dollars. Girls who are willing to assist with housework in return for room and board can generally secure such positions without any diffi- culty. Ordinarily we have far more positions than we have girls to take them. The Location Minnehaha Academy is located in the Twin Cities, the heart of the great Northwest. The campus lies on the Min- neapolis side of the majestic Mississippi River, one block south of the Selby-Lake car line, Which is one of the connect- ing lines between the two cities. The center of either met- ropolis may be reached in half an hour and for a single street car fare. In fact, there is only one fare between the school and any point in the entire Twin Cities. This strate- gic location just at the city 'boundary means that the school 9 CATALOG, MINNEHAHA ACADEMY THE SCHOOL OFFICE A CORRIDOR CATALOG. MINNEHAHA ACADEMY regularly receives a large number of students from both St. Paul and Minneapolis. It also makes the school very acces- ible to out-of-town students, as they can leave their train or board it at the station in either city. The Selby-Lake car going west runs directly past the Union Station in St. Paul and goes directly toward the Academy, running within a block of the school. This is the simplest way to reach the school, as it involves no transfer from one street car to another. The location of Minnehaha Academy in the Twin Cities gives it many other advantages. It enables the student to visit churches, libraries, museums and art galleries, to hear good music and good lectures, and also to attend various conferences and conventions. All these privileges are an education in themselves. There are also good chances for the student to secure employment when he is ready for a position. The Campus The campus of the school consists of twelve acres of ground, including a block of frontage on the boulevard along the brink of Mississippi River leading to the famous Minne- haha Falls. The huge dam recently constructed lby the United States government two miles below the school gives this whole stretch of the river the appearance of a lake. The beauty of the campus, sloping gently toward the river, is en- hanced by the large number of trees, to which the writer of the school song refers thus: Oaks majestic. ages old, Wave your branches proud and free, With your shelter kind enfold Minnehaha Academy! The grounds contain a tennis court, basket ball appa- ratus and a general athletic field. A big event every spring is the Campus Day, when all the teachers and students are mobilized and armed with spades, rakes and other weapons and the day is spent in a systematic effort to make the en- tire campus as clean and attractive as possible. The Main Building The school building, a handsome brick structure. was erected in 1913 and enlarged in 1916, due to the rapid in- 11 CATALOG, MINNlEHAH'A ACADEMY crease in the number of students. It provides class rooms, study rooms, cloak rooms, offices, music studios, chapel, dining hall, laboratories, library, and a girls rest room. The building is modern in every respect and is well equipped. The home of the President of the school is on the campus, directly across the street from the main building. The New Building When this catalog goes to press, plans are definitely un- der way for a new building fully as large as the present one. It will contain a larger chapel, a larger dining hall, a gym- nasium, class rooms, etc. Provisions will also be made so that the entire first floor can be converted into an audi- torium to be used for large gatherings, such as the annual conference of the Northwestern Young Peoples Covenant. The Library The library is located in a particularly pleasant room on the first floor, and is open to all the students. As a result of several generous donations it is well furnished, and has the beginning of a valuable collection of books. The Board of Directors has appropriated a sum of seventy-five dollars annually to be used for the purchase of new books. Among the reference works already in possession of the library may be mentioned the New International Encyclopedia, the Century Dictionary and Encyclopedia, Nelsonis Loose Leaf Encyclopedia, and the Standard Reference Work. Valuable works of history, biography, and literature have also been secured, such as Tarbellis life of Lincoln, Plutarchis Lives, Gi'bbonls Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, The Har- vard Classics, Groteis History of Greece, Riverside History of the United States, American Church History t13volumesy. Hartis American History told by Contemporaries, and edi- tions of the complete poetical works of Lowell, Scott, Long- fellow, Topelius, Tegne'r and Runeberg. There are also books for reference work in the various classes. An increas- ingly large number of periodicals is regularly received. hGiftS for the library will be gratefully received by the so 00. Historical Outline Minnehaha Academy has just completed its seventh year, but the educational work it represents has a history of more than a third of a century. The beginning of the movement 12 CATALOG, MINNEHAHA ACADEMY dates back to 1884, when Rev. E. Aug. Skogsbergh founded a school in his own home 011 Eighth Avenue South, Minnea- polis. Swedish immigrants were thronging into the North- west at this time and the school was designed to give them an opportunity to learn the English language, study the Bible, and fit themselves for practical life. The number of students was large and increased from year to year. The school was moved several times but was located in the Swe- dish Tabernacle most of the time. On January 11, 1905, seventeen men met in Minneapolis and began a new chapter in this history. Led by D. Magnus, they organized a school association and purchased the ground on which Minnehaha Academy is now located. In 1910 this property and a considerable sum of money were presented to the Northwestern Mission'Society, the organiza- tion uniting the Swedish Mission Churches of the North- west. The third chapter in the annals of this movement begins in 1911. At the annual conference of the Northwestern Young Peoples Covenant, held in the summer of that year on the school site, the so-called Corps of Collectors was formed under the leadership of A. L. Skoog. This organiza- tion gathered a sum of over $27,000, by means of which the school building was erected. The first school year began September 15, 1913. Helping H ands Early in 1914, at the suggestion of the Board of Directors and under the leadership of Mr. A. L. Skoog a group of loyal friends of Minnehaha Academy formed an organization which bears the unpretentious but beautiful name of Help- ing Hands. This is an association whose members pledge to the school the sum of five dollars or more annually for a period of five years. The purpose is to defray as far as possible the current expenses of the school. Beginning with only a handful the membership has grown rapidly, and now exceeds fifteen hundred. A quarterly bulletin published in the interests of the organization is sent free to all the mem- bers. Any person who realizes the importance of Christian education and Wishes to have a share in it'as centered at Minnehaha Academy is invited to enlist in these ranks. Blanks for membership will be sent on application to the schooL 13 CATALOG, MINNEHAHA ACADEMY PRESIDENT'S PRIVATE OFFICE Alumni Association The first class that graduated from Minnehaha Academy t1914i had 14 members. The class of 1920 numbered over 100. The graduates of the school have organized an alumni association to keep in touch with each other and to promote the interests of the school. It has a membership 110w of about 450. The annual reunion is held in connection With the Commencement festivities in May. The devotion of our graduates to the school is a constant inspiration. Not less than 125 of them are already Helping Hands. Class Memorials The graduating classes of Minnehatha Academy have es- tablished the beautiful custom of presenting a farewell gift to the school. This expression of their devotion to the school is valued all the more when one considers that most stu- 14 CATALOG, MINNEHAHA ACADEMY THE LIBRARY dents have very limited means, especially at the end of a course that has meant toil and sacrifice throughout. The class of 1915 presented a sanitary drinking fountain installed complete; the class of 1916 an educational filing cabinet for the Business Department; the class of 1917 a filing cabinet and a stenographeris desk for the office; the class of 1918 a sixty-foot metal flag pole erected in front of the school; the class of 1919 an electrically operated delineascope; and the Class of 1920 a very high grade'and complete mimeo- graph. 9 Student ACthltleS The work of the students is not confined to classrooms or textbooks. Among the organizations offering opportunities for a broad and wholesome deveIOpment along various lines are the following. . THE PRAYER BAND This is an organization of students who meet at six o'clock on Tuesday evenings for prayer. Is is one of the fin- 15 CATALOG, MINNEHAHA ACADEMY est manifestations of the spirit that pervades the school. In keeping these students pure in mind and heart as well as in winning others for the Lord, this prayer band is a mighty factor, as the past years have shown. THE STUDENT COUNCIL In 1918 the Faculty arranged for the election of re- presentatives from the various departments of the school to constitute a council to have general charge of the in- terests of the student body. Elections are held semi-an- nually and every regular student is eligible both to vote and to hold office. The Faculty often refers matters to this council and frequently receives recommendations from it. THE SCHOOL ORCHESTRA The School Orchestra is one of the newer organizations of Minnehaha Academy. Its purpose is to train the students of music in ensemble playing. The organizer and director of the orchestra is Miss Ackerlun-d, our instructor in violin. THE MINNEHA'HA CHORAL SOCIETY The Minnehah Choral Society is an oratorio chorus, con- ducted by Mr. Burns, the director of our Music Department. It has a large membership, drawn from Minnehaha Academy and the Swedish Mission Churches of the Twin Cities. In Commencement week of 1915 the chorus rendered Haydifs itCreation, in 1916 it gave Handelis tiMessiah, and in 1917 a program from various compasers. Due to war and post- war conditions the chorus did no active work in the years immediately following these. TeHE HIAWA'THA DEBATING SOCIETY Realizing that the ability to think and reason logically and to present these thoughts intelligently to others is a valuable asset, the Hiawatha Debating Society has been organized by a number of young men of Minnehaha Acad- emy to develop such ability. All the men of the Faculty and student body are eligible for membership. The Society meets every Wednesday evening. In the spring of 1918, Minne- haha Academy debated Augsburg Seminary, Minneapolis, on the question of compulsory arbitration between capital and labor. In 1920 we debated North Park College, Chicago, on the question of government ownership of railroads. With the latter school an annual debate will be probably be held henceforth . . . 16 CATALOG, MINNIEHAHA ACADEMY NOKOMIS DEBATING SOCIETY Aroused by a challenge from the Hiawatha Debating So- ciety in 1917 and the favorable outcome of the debate that followed, some of the girls organized the Nokomis Debating Society. This society is now a regular activity, of Which any girl of the school can become a member. The work of this organization is similar to that of the Hiawatha Debat- ing Society. THE TIMOTHY CLASS Many of the young men at Minnehaha Academy are thinking seriously of the ministry orforeign missionarywork. They have organized the Timothy Class to equip themselves better for active Christian work, and especially to train themselves in speaking along spiritual lines. Regular meet- ings are held once a veek. The men of the Faculty are ad- visory members. THE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATIONS Some of the opportunities for healthful exercise offered by Mi-nnehaha Academy have already been pointed out in the description of the campus. It may be added that the school building contains two shower baths and a num-berof steel lockers for the use of the students. The athletic inter- ests of the school are centered in the boys' athletic associa- tion, and a similar organization among the girls, under whose auspices all interscholastic events are arranged. Their work is supervised by a Faculty director of athletics. For each organization a gymnasium is usually rented to be used certain afternoons each week. THE BOYS GLEE CLUB This is another of the newer organizations of the school. It is composed of boys from the student body, who possess ability and interest in singing. The director is Mr. Hult- gren, our instructor in voice. THE MISSION STUDY CLASSES . A mission study class is a group of young people, prefer- ably not over ten or twelve in number, that meets one e-vew ning a week to study some field of foreign missions. The series of studies continues through about eight weeks. Four such classes were conducted at Minnehaha Academy during the past school year, the following fields being studied: Asia, Africa, China and the Mohammedan World. Certainly these studies have aroused an intelligent and growing in- 17 EHAHA ACADEMY NN I L ! CATALOG HOHPme qmmdmo 4 E. CATALOG, MINN'EHAHA ACADEMY terest in foreign missions and have also deepened the spi- ritual life of these students. W hen to enter HIGH SCHOOL DEPARTMENT Students should enroll at the beginning of the school year, as all classes begin at that time. It is difficult to enter later, because the studies in this department are all class work continuing through the year. Every effort should be made to be at the school promptly on Registration Day. If prevented from entering at that time, prOSpective students should write to the school before coming, and learn whether they can still join their classes. New classes are also begun in January. - BUSINESS DEPARTMENT Students in this department are admitted at three differ- ent times, the beginning of September, about the beginning of November, and the beginning of January. Except by spe- cial pern1ission,students will not be admitted at any other time. MUSIC DEPARTMENT Students are admitted into .this department at any time of the year, as the studies are all individual work. General Rules 1.

High School Department CHARACTER OF WORK The studies pursued in this department are the same as those in a good high school. The important difference is the stress laid on instruction in the Bible. The courses are so arranged as to prepare students for entrance into college, university, or technical school, in the case of those who are planning such a career. Others, who do not contemplate advanced studies, will find the courses a broad education in themselves. ADMISSION Students who have graduated from the eighth grade of a public school are admitted into the first year of the Academy without examination. Those who have no such diploma are expected to show a mastery of the subjects taught in public school, or take preliminary work. Anyone who has pursued studies in some other academy or high school and wishes to enter an advanced class, will be given credit for the work done in another school. REQUIREMENTS FOR GRADUATION To complete the course satisfactorily and secure a diplo- ma as evidence thereof, a student must obtain 16 credits. This requirement is satisfied by carrying four regular studies through the year for four years. Mature students are occasionally able to shorten their course .by carrying an extra. subject or by attending our summer school. Ordinarily the student is required to follow one of the three prescribed courses: the Latin, the Modern Language, or the Scientific. Synopsis of Courses I.

The High School Preparatory Course These courses are planned for two classes of students: those who have not had a complete grammar school educa- tion and therefore need a drill in the common branches, secondly, those who have not received their education in America and therefore need training in English. Thorough, practical education is the aim. TIME OF ENTRANCE . It should lbe noticed that these courses do not begin un- til the first of January. This is the time to enter. REGULAR COURSE The Regular Course includes: Bible Reading Penmanship Spelling Arithmetic English Grammar The work in this course is similar to that done in the seventh and eighth grades of Public School. This course, however, not only offers opportunities to the person who WlSheS to enter our High School Department or Business Department, and has neglected his grammar schOol educa- tion, but also has a direct practical value for young people who plan to take Civil Service examinations that require a thorough preparation in the common branches, such as Railway Mail Clerks. 28 TAT :3 14 0 G , MINNEHAHA ACADEMY 7 .;,w...: I-IMJ'J .1 f$wgagtax r III.

The student gains a knowledge of words by drills in spelling and assignments in composition. Correct pronunciation will be insisted upon by the instructor before whom he reads. Sen- tence structure will be derived more from practise than from rules. Grammar is taught, first 1by correct usage, and only fgradually, as the work advances, by fixed rules. Business Department AIM . The purpose of this department is to give men and twomen through training along commercial lines, and to .Lprepare them to hold business positions successfully. . In recent years, owing to business rivalry and keenness 10f competition, and to the vast improvements in the proces- ses of production and manufacturing, far-reaching changes have been made in the conducting of the commercial and industrial enterprises of our country. These changes have necessitated corresponding changes and improvements in the accounting systems, and as a consequence, commercial training must be more thorough than was the case a few years ago. In arranging the courses in this department, our chief aim has 'been to select such as are practical in every respect and as will thoroughly qualify the student to fill positions as bookkeepers, stenographers, accountants, commercial teachers, and prepare them for civil service. The great business concerns of this country require an- nually the service of thousands of men and women to con- duct and assist in conducting the business of this country. Opportunity for promotion and advancement is always open to those who are competent. ADMISSION Students who have completed the common schools are admitted Into the regular courses of this department. Per- 30 CATALOG, MINNEHAHA ACADEMY sons who lack sufficient training in the common branches should take a through review of these subjects in our high school preparatory course. No person under sixteen who is not a graduate of the eighth grade will be admitted into this department. GRADUATION All students who enroll not later than the beginning of January and intend to continue in the Summer School to complete their respective courses, are considered members of that yearls graduating class. EQU IPMENT' With the addition built in 1916, the quarters of the second floor of the building occupied .by the Business De- partment are ideal. The rooms are arranged in a manner conducive to health, comfort and efficiency. The equipment is new and complete, including about thirty typewriters of the latest models, vertical filing cabinets, mimeograph, add- ing machine, dictating machine, modern bank and office fixtures, etc. The rooms and fixtures are arranged so as to correspond to a modern business office. Courses Offered The Business Department offers the following courses Bookkeeping Ty-pist-Clenical Stenographic Higher Accounting General Business Course .

MINNEHAHA ACADEMY BOOKKEEPING ROOM GENERAL BUSINESS COURSE This course is designed to give the student a broad train- ing in business in general. The subjects offered are such as will benefit the student, nomatter what line of work he fol- lows later. The person who intends to enter into business for himself or to become a salesman or a farmer will find this course of special interest. The bookkeeping training covers about one-third of the work offered in the bookkeep- ing course, and is sufficient to enable the student to keep an ordinary set 'of books. To the student who intends to be- come a farmer a special course in farm bookkeeping, income tax. etc., will be offered.The following subjects are taught: Bible Penmanship Bookkeeping Spelling Business English Commercial Law Correspondence American Government Arithmetic and Banking and Investments Rapid Calculation Farm Accounting Salesmanship Electives CATALOG, MINNEHAHA ACADEMY COMBINATION BOOKKEEPING AND STENOGRAHIC COURSE This course includes thecompleteStenographic Courseand the first four units of the Bookkeeping Course. It prepares students to till positions Where a knowledge of both Short- hand and Bookkeeping is required. The following subjects are taught: Bible Typewriting Bookkeeping Part 1 Commercial Law Shorthand Salesmanship Dictation Business English Office Training Correspondence Spelling Electives Penmanship TYPIST-CLERICAL COURSE Although the bookkeeping and stenographic courses will always meet the needs of the business world, there are many positions open where the knowledge of shorthand is not essential. The applicant must, however, be qualified as a typi-st and possess a thorough knowledge of office methods. bookkeeping, and the operation of dictating machines, mi- meograph, etc. The purpose of this course is to prepare students as dictating machine operators, typists, and general office clerks. The following subjects are offered: Bi'ble Arithmetic and Bookkeeping Part 1 Rapid Calculation Typewriting Business English Penmanship Correspondence Office Training Dictating Machine Practice Spelling Electives HIGHER ACCOUNTING This course prepares advanced students for positions as accountants and auditors. It is open to graduates of com- mercial schools who have completed a regular bookkeeping course. The following subjects are offered: Theory of Accounts Devising of Special Systems Accounting Problems Business Law Practical Accounting English Cost Accounting Typewriting Auditing 34 CATALOG, MINNEHAHA.ACADEMY We do not guarantee that persons completing this course can step into an office and fill a position as an accountant, without first having had some practical experience. When succeeded by a few years of practical experience, however, this course does lead to a position as accountant. SPECIAL COURSES Students who wish to study special subjects, but not a complete prescribed course, are enrolled in special courses. These courses do not lead to graduation. Such courses would include review in stenography, bookkeeping, banking, preparation for various civil service examinations, etc. EXPLANATION OF SUBJECTS BIBLE All students in this department are required to study the Bible. These classes meet once a week. There is nothing so essential as good morals and an upright character in order to fill a responsible commercial position successfully. Many persons :have failed to be promoted to higher positions, not so much because of deficiency in training and competency,as because of lack of a good character. We believe that a study of the Bible helps to build up strong characters which always makes for success. BOOKKEE'PING The Twentieth Century System of bookkeeping has been adopted as our text. We are confident that in selecting this text we have secured one of the most practical and up-to- date systems of bookkeeping ever devised. The subject is divided into three parts, all of which are required in the bookkeeping course, unless the student selects banking as substituted for the third part. In the Combination Course, Part 1 and Business Practise are required. A few of the special features of this system of bookkeep- iug may be summed up as follows: 1. It teaches bookkeeping as it is used at the present day. The student is not asked to learn the old-time methods which are not in use today. 2. The form of statements, balance sheets, etc., conform to those used by present day accountants. 3. It has the endorsement of leading teachers through- out the country, and of practical business men and ac- countants. c: U i CATALOG, MINNEHAH'A ACADEMY SCHOOL ORCH ESTRA CORNER OF DINING HALL CATALOG, MINNEHAH'A ACADEMY 4. We use standard bookkeeping systems such as are used for retail, wholesale, mercantile, manufacturing, and banking business. Every set is a model of constructive accounting. PART I. This set gives the student the fundamental principles of bookkeeping and trains him in the use of the Journal, Cash Book, Sales Book, Purchase Book, Ledger, the Financial and Profit and Loss statements, and complete closing of the books. The student uses the actual business papers and transacts his business with the general school offices, and in this way becomes familiar with banking practice, office routine, buying and selling, etc. The student who thorough- ly understands this set is competent to keep an ordinary set of books. PART II. This is a partnership set, and the student is employed as general bookkeeper. The work is more difficult than Part I, and compares very well with the average set of books used in a business office. The actual business papers are used, and the student transacts his business with the business college bank, sells his merchandise to the sales office, and purchases his merchandise from the purchasing office. The student is required to figure a great number of invoices, make up dif- ficult financial and profit and loss statements, adjustments, depreciation accounts, admission of new partners, complete closing of the books, etc. PART III. In this set the student fills the position of bookkeeper for a corporation conducting a manufacturing business. It is very important that the student should understand this class of bookkeeping. A large percentage of the business firms of this country are organized as corporations. The student be- comes familiar with the capital stock account, the transfer of stock, the stock certificate, declaring of dividends, organ- ization of corporations, etc. The voucher system of bookkeeping is introduced and the department system is also used; the use of special column is given special attention. The set prepares the student for making up manufacturing cost statements, trading state- 9- I U CATALOG, MINNEHAHA ACADEMY ments, and difficult financial statements. Cost accounting also receives attention in this set. NOTE The completing of Parts I, II, and III willgivethe student an excellent foundation in bookkeeping, so that he should find no difficulty in adapting himself to the various systems of bookkeeping in use. BUSINESS PRACTICE Our Commercial Department is equipped with splendid of- fices such as bank, post-office, purchasing and sales depart- ments, etc. Our business practice is not a Special or separate set, but Part I and Part II of our bookkeeping course are so arranged that the student conducts his business with these offices, and thus becomes familiar with actual business methods. The student is also given positions in these offi- ces, such as the various 'banking positions, also bookkeeper and cashier in the purchasing and selling offices. It has been our experience that the use of business offices in the school room gives the student a much better understanding of how actual business is conducted. The student also takes a great interest in this work. BANKING We believe that every person who intends to enter bank- ing should have a thorough understanding of bookkeeping and general business subjects, in addition to the banking practice. Therefore we offer no special course in banking but advise the student interested in banking to enroll in our bookkeeping or general business course. Banking practice may be taken instead of Part III in the bookkeeping course. Banking students will also be given opportunity to study the theory of banking, money and credits, investments. The study of the income tax will 'be given special attention. The student whose preparation is sufficient to enable him to take up banking without taking the complete bookkeep- ing course will be permitted to do so, but such student would be registered as taking special subjects, no diploma being given in such cases. A certificate, :however, will be given, showing the amount of work completed. BANKING PRACTICE Students wishing to specialize in 'banking should take this work instead of Part III in the bookkeeping course. This 38 CATALOG, MINNEHAHA ACADEMY is an up-to-date set in banking. The work is so arranged that the student fills practically every position in a bank, such as cashier, assistant cashier, receiving and paying teller, discount clerk, clearing house clerk, bookkeeper, etc. The 'business papers are used, and the blank books are al- most identical with those used in banks throughout our coun- try. The study of the Federal Reserve Bank is given special attention. Adding machine practice is also given much at- tention. The student who finishes this set should find no difficulty in filling a bank position. In addition to this set, the student receives training in banking through the use of the offices in Parts 1 and II, and in the bookkeeping course. ACCOUNTING We are offering this subject as an introductory set to the study of accounting. The subject covers the fundamental principles in accounting, the study of different classes of ac- counts and their relation to bookkeeping as well as to busi- ness in general. A great deal of time is devoted to the finan- cial and income statements. SHORTHAND We teach the Gregg Shorthand System which is recog- nized as the best and most popular system of today. The theory and principles of the system must be fully mastered by the student, and no pains are spared to give him the most thorough instruction in this part of the subject. DICTATION The student is entered into the dictation class as soon as this is practical. A great deal of time is devoted to the die- tation of business letters. A large number of letters repre senting almost every business in existence is kept on file at the school, and in receiving this dictation the student will become familiar with different lines of business. Legal work and court reporting also receive attention in this class. TYPEW'RITING In order to become a successful stenographer the student must first become a good typist. Special attention is given to healthful position at the machine, the forming of correct habits of typewriting. To the beginner this is especially im- portant, as speed and accuracy cannot be acquired unless cor- rect habits of typewriting are formed from the beginning. 39 CATALOG, MINNEHAHA ACADEMY business coursesmay take typewriting as a special subject, The care and operation of the machine is given special atten- tion. Students registered in the bookkeeping or general business courses may take typewriting as a special subject, paying an extra fee, provided proper arrangements in sched- ule can be made. DICTATING MACHINE PRACTICE There is a large demand for operators of dictating ma- chines, such as the Ediphone and the Dictaphone. The stud- ents in our typist course are given special training in this work, as soon as their speed in typewriting permits. This machine is also used by our shorthand students in taking dic- tation directly from the machine. BUSINESS ENGLISH This includes a review of the fundamental principles of grammar, a thorough training in the correct usage of words. the writing of compositions, etc. No pains are spared to make this work clear, practical and comprehensive. COMMERCIAL CORRESPONDENCE Persons entering into business must know how to write business letters. Special training is given in the arrange- ment of business letters; letters of application; letters of recommendation; circulars; telegrams, etc. SPELLING Correct spelling is very essential for filling a commercial position. The student is trained, not only in spelling, but also in diacritical marks and in definitions. OFFICE TRAINING This class is organized for the purpose of studying the different methods used in a business office, such as the pro- per arrangement of an office; systematizing the work so as to reap the best results with a minimum of labor; proper method of filing letters; use of adding machine, neostyle, etc.; office efficiency in general; and caring for those minor things in an office which are so often overlooked, but which. if practiced, enable a person to receive rapid promotions. It also includes an advanced course in letter writing. The student must construct his own letters following much the same method as is used by an office correspondent. The student is also taught to write various business forms, to 40 CATALOG, MINNEHAHIA ACADEMY handle negotiable instruments, the bank account, and office appliances. In fact, almost every possible phase of office work receives attention. As a result of this training, the student Will know what is expected of him when he enters upon the duties of the business position. ARITHMETIC Next to bookkeeping this subject is, no doubt, the most important. It includes thorough training in fractions, decis mals, weights and measures, interest, profit and loss, wages and pay-rolls, commercial and bank discount, insurance, savings banks, partial payment, exchange, stocks and bonds, equation of accounts, adjusting of partnership, corporation accounts, etc. RA'PID CALCULATION The purpose of this subject is to drill the student to solve business problems rapidly, easily, and correctly. The entire business department is given this training. These daily drills assist the students in their regular work, and are of inestimable value to them When they enter business life. PENMANSHIP The value of a legible and rapid handwriting cannot be overestimated. We teach the Palmer Method of Business Writingea plain business penmanship. This is a style of writing commended by business men. Students who follow this method always acquire a good hand. Stenographic students receive training in shorthand penmanship. COMMERCIAL LAW This study is very essential to the business student. Stu- dents usually find this one of the most interesting subjects in their course. The subject covers especially the study of contracts, bailments, negotiable instruments, such as checks, notes, drafts, banking; also the study of agency, sales of real and personal property, partnership and corporations, insurance, income tax, as applied to business, etc. CIVIL GOVERNMENT A business student should understand the organization or our national, state and municipal governments, election laws, how our laws are made, etc. All these things directly affect business conditions. This course is a practical ex- planation of the operation of our government. 41 CATALOG, MINNEHAHA ACADEMY SALESMANTSHIP AND BUSINESS EFFICIENCY Every person has something to sell, and the sales pro- blem is about the most important of all business problems. This is not a complete course in salesmanship, but will give the fundamental principles used in selling. In business efficiency lectures are given on how to be- come more efficient, the importance of personality and character in business, systematic arrangement of the work in an office, etc. ADVERTISING Advertising is closely associated with selling, hence it follows salesmanship in our course. This is a brief course in the elements of advertising. The student will become familiar with the planning of an advertisement, the cost of advertising, advertising campaigns, and the importance of advertising in a business. ELECTIVE SUBJECTS Should a student desire training along special lines, he will be permitted to take up such work, if the necessary arrangements can be made. Such subjects as farm account- ing, real estate, railway accounting, income tax, 1umber,'in- surance, investments, business and office management, may be offered. The number of such electives a student is per- mitted to take will depend on his schedule. The theoretical part of the work in these subjects will be given in the form of lectures. Time Required to Complete the Courses One serious mistake made by young people attending a business school is that they do not spend enough time in school to become thoroughly equipped for the demands of business life. The students who attend a business school will succeed practically according to the amount of time they spend in preparation for their chosen work and fail in pro- portion as they try to get through in the shortest possible time. The students who thoroughly master the courses as outlined should find no difficulty in filling the various posi- tions for which our courses prepare. The students who find it possible to finish both the bookkeeping and the shorthand courses have four chances to one when they are ready to seek employment, first a shorthand position, secondly a bookkeeping position, then a 42 CATALOG, MINNEHAHA ACADEMY position with bookkeeping as the principal work and a slight use of shorthand, fourthly, a position where shorthand is the chief work, but where a fair knowledge of bookkeeping is required. If students take only one course, only one kind of a position is usually open to them. The graduate of both courses has broader and better preparation for his future work, he commands better pay from the start and his education is broad enough to enable him to take responsibility as it comes and thus steady ad- vancement is assured. If, however, time and means are so limited as to make the completion of both courses difficult or impossible, one should at least make the effort to add to one's shorthand education a fair knowledge of bookkeeping. This can be done without much, if any, increase in the length of the course. It is difficult to state the exact time required to complete the courses. We have students Who can finish the shorthand course in 18 weeks or the bookkeeping in five or six months, but these are exceptions. The approximate time required is as follows: Bookkeeping Course ......... 7-9 months Shorthand Course ............ 6-9 months Combination Course ......... 7-10 months General Business Course ...... 7-9 months Typist-Clerical Course .......... 7 months Other courses depend on the studenti-s previous prepara- tion. Approximate Cost of Books for Comercial Courses Regular Bookkeeping Course, about ................. $12.00 Regular Shorthand Course, about ................... 12.00 Combined Course, about ............................ 14.00 Typist-Clerical Course, about ....................... 12.00 General Business Course ........................... 12.00 CATALOG.

BERKS, Director This department aims to benefit every student of Minne- haha Academy, in whatever department he may be register- ed, by trying to create a musical atmosphere and to cultivate a craving for what is good in music. This is accomplished by recitals, concerts, etc., as well as by making song and music an essential part of every devotional, literary, and social activity of the school. By offering superior opportunities for the study of vocal and instrumental music, it also aims to serve the pupil who pursues the study of music both as an art and an accomplish- ment, and for the purpose of teaching it to others. Deviating from the order of thorough and practical cour-sesonlyenough to meet the special needs of individual cases, this Depart- ment strives to produce efficient and devoted teachers. Our instructors are men and women of recognized talent and ability in their respective fields. Prof. Jos. E. Burns, the head of the department, has won distinction as a successful teacher in pianoforte and organ, and is a recognized choral director. The other teachers also are able and experienced. PIANO JUNIOR AND ELEMENTARY COURSE In this first stage of the study of music, it is important that fundamental principles be made clear and emphasized. The student will then understand why ear-training, mind- concentration, and conscientious and persistent practise in acquiring .technic are essential. He will strive to make his elementary work thorough, so as to lay a good foundation upon which he may afterwards build. From the following an idea may be gained of the work that this course offers. Hand culture; rudiments and theory of notation; mech-- anism of piano-forte; instructions as outlined in the follow- 111g: Lambertis Piano Method, Norris Syllabus, book one; Schmitt or Herz Technical studies; Diabelli and Kuhlau So- natinas; Concoe and Duvernoy Studies; pieces graded by thle1 progress of the pupil; etudes by Burgmuller or Loe- sc orn. 47 CATALOG.
