' 24: RAVELINGS. BUSINESS LOCALS. At present the demand is so great for commercial instruction, in the business branches, that the teachers in the public and private schools find their value a necessity and upon the the knowledge of these branches, many in the past year have greatly en- hanced their salaries. In fact, almost all the schools of the country are re- quiring of their teachers, a knowledge of the Commercial branches: and they are not requiring a mere knowledge of them, but they expect them to handle these subjects successfully: and if you are not a teacher, and expect soon to enter the profession, you can do no better than to take a business course at once. Besides, a wide and profitable field is open to all who may desire to follow some commercial persuit. and if so, no wise and prudent man can afford to enter upon his life calling without first fitting himself for the duties in- volved. If you are intending to lead the profession of a doctor or a lawyer, you will be all the better prepared for your work, by first taktng a business course. If you are a farmer, you neen a first class business education. The false notion that the most limited education is sufficient for the farmer, is no long- entertained by thoughtful people, but all will admit that one of the most es- sential things of a farmers education, is a thorough knowledge of business affairs. So man needs to know more concerning contracts, notes, and their endoi ' .sements, payment and collection of bills, the rules of business, the forms of banking and the laws of banking paper, more than the farmer. A knowledgs of book-keeping , is one branch of a young man ' s education. that he cannot afford to be without. Of such an education, Henry Clay said: Young men educate yourself for busi- ness; the professions are full and the age demands it. A business man for the farm, the counting house or the commercial pursuits, and you will suc- ceed now and hereafter. The Monmouth Business Colleg-e offer to the public, an education that well fit you for business pursuits, and make you strong and firm to battle with the ways of commerce. Do not delay, get a business education as soon as possible and join the throng that moves the wheels of commerce, and carries you forward to fame and for- tune. For Journal address T. F.
