LEARN STENOGRAPHY
This war has opened up untold ad
vantages to men and women in every
branch of trade and business. You never
know when you may need the experi
ence of a business education. All up
to date business houses demand skilled
help.
Those who are holding' high positions
are many who began as Stenographers
and were so competent they soon prov
ed themselves invaluable to their em
ployers. We place our pupils just as soon as
they prove they are capable, and are
constantly being asked for capable
pupils to fill positions. Good steno
graphers were neved in greater demand
than at the present time. The odds are
too great against the incompetent.
New and rapidly expanding business
houses do not employ the unprepared.
Classes in SHORTHAND, TYPE
WRITING, BOOKKEEPING, FRENCH
and ENGLISH are being formed now at
the ELIZABETH CITY BUSINESS
COLLEGE.
