Excerpt:
If the universal interest this School has created, the ability of the instructors, the testimony of so many intelligent citizens, and the largest and best class of patronage of any Business School in Baltimore, count for anything, its superiority must be acknowledged.

is required till you are satisfied the Course of Instruction will be successfully accomplished.
NO OTHER SCHOOL
in the country dare make such a proposition. It is done in this School because of the original and successful system of teaching getting results.
TUITION.
Books, board, and other expenses of attending any business college, will cost hundreds of dollars, and in none of these schools do the patrons receive so thorough and careful instruction and drilling in the logic of Book-keeping. Many Business College students never learn the reason why they make a debit and credit in journalizing, or know how to close a set of books and make out of a balance sheet by themselves, and understand it. In this School it is guaranteed that you can do these things thoroughly.
