Tbe citizens of Aun Arbor and vicinity wlll be plensed to know that tbe business department of the High School has been fitteel up with business offices of the most modern style, incladlng a bank, railroad oftice, real estáte and Insurance offices, commission and jeb house?, wholesale and retail mercanlilo houses, and in fact all the appliances for carrying on business as it is carried on in Ihe outMde business world. These offices are all supplied with large bnsinesa books, where the business transacted with the students is ree rded in the most practical manner, illustrating all forms of book-keeping from the simplest to the most complete, includlng joint stock and Corporation bookkeeping. Instead of copying from a text-book as heretofore, students buy and sell, deposit money In bank, pay bilis, give and take recelpt.0, ship goods to other merebants to be sold on commission and in fact go through the entire routine of an active merchant which he is m fact.
