THE POLY but we would advise each student to secure as a solid foundation, a liberal education. In other words, even a specialist should have a knowledge of all common branches in order really to succeed in his chosen linc. The growth of the entire department has been of greait interest to the directors of music. XYe started three years ago with only four or live pupils in Piano. Today one cannot wallc through our buildings without hearing from one side pianos, from another, vio- lins. and still farther on, a guitar, clarinet, or perhaps a horn 'and even a friendly mouth organ: all mingling their voices together, and of course in grand harmony. Such is the industry and ambition of our musical fraternity. XYe have no music hall as yet, but through one of the school's greatest benefactors, -lohn ll. lqiselcainp, we are to enjoy very soon every advantage of a modern conservatory building, lo be known as l.osekamp Hall. This will contain a magnilicent auditorium for public recitals, a smaller hall for class recital worlc, besides many studios and practice rooms. ln time, a tine large pipe organ will be installed in the auditorium, which will complete the Polytechnic Conservatory and malce it one of the very best. Besides the vocal and instrumental instruction, we can offer classes in History of Music, Theory, and Harmony for those who desire to make music their profession.

U ilffommercial eparimeni El lVe are living in an age of great commercial activities. As competition in busi- ness becomes more keen from year to year, business methods become more and more complex. The largest and most successful business establishments everywhere are offer- ing a premium for efficient service. Business firms are placing the emphasis upon the ability and character in selecting those who are to manage their affairs or to do their clerical work. lVe believe that there are three very gooql reasons why a young person procuring an education for the duties and responsibilities of life, should get a good business train- ing. First, it prepares for useful and leading citizenship: second, it is the training which gives the practical knowledge necessary to conduct successfully any profession or life work: and third, it prepares young people for clerical positions. Wfe believe these reasons are given in the order of their importance, with the most important first. Because of what is demanded of young people as they go out into actual life, We CllMf'lflifIHL kwa?- A-Q9 WHWNT' R , 1 '-746562 H - n .

Our greatest concern, therefore, is not to prepare young people for this or that oflice, although we cer- tainly expect them to be able to do creditable oilice work. XVe train them for business, or, rather, equip young people for citizenship and business and thus make them ready to face commercial problems and stand up under the ever-increasing responsibility to be imposed upon them. XYe learn from a mere casual observation that mental ability alone is not 'sufficient for young people, with which to climb to the top and stand among the fore- -3 2-
