We give our students instruction under a thorough practical Bookkeeper, who has had a large experience. Our terms are very little more than half the usual charge of schools of this grade. We turn out more good writers than any school in this part of the state. Our "German" Students learn rapidly.
In our primary and preparatory departments we keep the highest grade teach- ers that can be obtained.
