WILL MAKE IT PRACTICAL

Department of Commercial Education in University. 

LABOR SAVING DEVICES And All the New Card Catulogues, Filing Devices, Cash Registers, Adding Machines, Being Used.

The department of commercial education is making another progressive move. This time it is in the nature of time-saving instruction that will interest the business men of the country. Office devices of every kind and description made for the purpose of facilitating work, saving time and doing away with certain liabilities of error, are to be installed in the University. It is the purpose of Prof. Janes and Dr. Glover at the present time to fit up an ideal office room, containing types of the best desks, filing devices, card catalogues, cash registers, adding machines, time recording machines, letter files, printed forms of various typical industries and in fact everything that is available for an up-to-date office.

Prof. E. D. Janes said this afternoon: "This state produces such a quantity of the very things we want in this line that it will be practically an easy matter to carry out our intent. We already have an adding machine, cash register and other modern office and time saving conveniences and from letters we have received we are positive that the manufacturers will continue to respond to our call for samples of their best devices. It seems that they readily realize the advantage of having students trained in the practical work as well as in theory. They have always preached practicality and are willing to stick to their text.
