Experienced Instructors of Advanced Scholarship
The fact that most men and women engaged in Commercial teaching in Winnipeg were trained at the
“Success” is a tribute of which we are justíy proud. It is of even greater significance to prospective students
to know’ that there is available in Winnipeg the College whose teachers have become known as “teachers
of teachers” and that without extra cost they can receive the superior instruction of The Success Business
College.
\
The Golleáe of Higher Standards
At The Success College you will associate with young men and women of Grade Eleven or University Edu-
cation. Grade Eleven (supplements allowed) is our minimum standard for admittance to Day Courses.
All Our Final Exaniinations are Independent of the Colleáe
The Board of Examiners of The Business Educators’ Association of Canada sets all graduation examinations for this
College. The Board is appointed by the Association and has full charge of all matters pertaining to setting, marking
and reporting the graduation examinations for all Colleges affiliated with the Association.
Day School Limited to 500 Stndents
If The Success Business College had set its 1936 maximum enrollment quota at 400, many of our students would
have been obliged to wait for six months or longer to enroll in our classes.
In 1936 the demand for Success Courses has been so great that our classrooms had to be enlarged in order to accommo-
date our Students. In March of this year 503 students were attending our Day Classes and our combined Day and
Evening attendance exceeded 700.
This College secures its large patronage through its ability to provide thorough instruction, broad courses, and effic-
ient service to students and employers.
A Wide Range of Conrses
Most of the following “Success” courses qualify for a Graduation Diploma of The Business Educators’ Association of
Canada: (1) Shorthand, (2) General Stenographic, (3) Civil Service Stenographic, (4) General Office Training, (5) Gen-
eral Secretarial, (6) Executive Secretarial, (7) Business Administration, (8) Accounting, (9) Dictaphone, (10) Compto-
meter, (11) Elliott-Fisher. Special subjects may be taken, if desired. Credit is allowed for subjects covered in High
School and University. Personality Development is taught in all departments of our Day Classes.
354 PLACEMENTS
ln FIRST HALF of 1936
Is the Record of Our Employment Department
Supply and demand regulate employment conditions and, therefore, no school can guarantee to place íts students; but a
good school will seriously endeavor to place every graduate and worthy undergraduate.
For the benefit of our graduates and undergraduates, we operate a Placement Bureau which registers students who
are qualified for various types of positions, and introduces them to business opportunities. There is no charge to the
business public nor to the student for this service.
Fall Term Opens Monday,
August 24th
Those who find it inconvenient to commence on or before
August 24th may enroll later.
Our system of individual instruction permits new students
to start at any time and to commence right at the beginning
of each subject.

AFMÆLISÓÐUR
(Til lestrarfélagsins “Gimli” að
Gimli, Man., í tilefni af 25 ára af-
mæli þess og byggingu húss yfir
bókasafn þess).
íslenzk bókhneigð er á brattann
sækin;
Eining f jöldans léttir þyngsla störf.
Bróðurhugur brúar margan lækinn,
Því bjarma slær á fjórðungsaldar
hvörf.
Hér lestrarfýknin léði krafta nóga,
Lestrarsafni að byggja eigi'Ö hús;
Það eiga fleiri grund og græna skóga
En Girnli menn, og jafnvel meir til
bús.
En fræÖaþuli áttir ótal marga
Öðrum meiri, bæði fyr og síð,
Er máls vors reyndu mestu djásn-
um bjarga
Frá imöl og ryði, handa bernsku lýð.
Heill þér, Gimli, vertu æ á verði,
Varnarmúr sért helgum feðra arf,
Mótbyr þér ei hár á höfði skerði,
En heiðurs njótir fyrir unnið starf.

AL CAPONE GRÆTUR
Einn af nafnkunnugstu glæpa-
mönnum á þessari öld, A1 Capone,
sem um langt skeið var illvigasti
bófaforingi í Bandarikjunum, hefir
nú setið í fangelsi um tveggja ára
skeið. Hefir hann verið þar eins og
ljós og hagað sér svo að það er talið
til fyrirmyndar. Hann situr í Al-
catraz-fangelsinu hjá San Francisco.
Fyrir skömmu var hann á gangi í
fangelsisgarðinum, en þá réðist einn
af föngunum aftan af honum, rak
skæri i bakið á honum og sparkaði i
hann.
Capone fór að hágráta og snökti:
“Hvernig stendur á því að menn eru
vondir við mig?”
Hann meiddist svo mikið, að það
varð að flytja hann í sjúkrastofu
fangelsisins.—Lesb. Mbl.
SEINASTA RIT GORKI
Nokkru áður en Maxim Gorki dó,
byrjaði hann á einkennilegri bók.
Það átti að vera saga eins dags, þar
sem sagt var frá öllum helztu at-
burðum, sem gerðust í heiminum.
Hann hafði valið sér 27. september
1035. Fréttaritarar um allan heim
höfðu sent honum langar skýrslur
um alt sem gerðist i þeirra heim-
kynnum þennan dag. Fjöldi ungra
rithöfunda aðstoðuðu Gorki við það
að skipa niður efninu. Er nú eftir
að vita hvort einhver þeirra getur
skrifað bókina.
Hvað skeði markvert hinn 27.
september 1935? Meðal annars
þetta:
í Englandi náði járnbrautarlest-
in “Silver Jubilee” 112 mílna hraða
á klukkustund. í Jugoslafíu fórust
10 verkamenn við námaslys. í
Abyssiniu hélt keisarinn liðkönnun,
og voru þar 28,000 hermenn. í New
York var rænt syni fyrverandi yfir-
lögreglustjóra.—Lesb. Mbl.
Tveir menn náðu 1J5
bjarndýrum í vetur
Tveir Norðmenn, Henry Rudy og
Gunnar Knoph, eru nýlegá komnir
heim eftir vetursetu á Spitzbergen.
Þeir höfðu legið i kofa á Hálfmána-
ey, og þarna skutu þeir 114 bjarn-
dýr og náðu einu lifandi. Þetta er
sú mesta bjarndýraveiði, sem tveir
menn hafa fengið á einum vetri.—
Lesb. Mbl.
Sákarnppgjöf í Austurríki
Nýlega voru gerð kunnug atriði
sakaruppgjafar austurrísku stjórn-
arinnar til handa pólitiskum föngum,
en sakaruppgjöfin var tilkynt í sam.
bandi við þýzk-austurriska sáttmál-
ann fyrir 12 dögum. Nær hún til
10,000 fanga, sem ýmist eru leystir
úr fangelsi með öllu, eða hegningar-
tímabil þeirra stytt að verulegum
mun. Aðeins 224 fangar fara var-
hluta af sakaruppgjöfinni i öllu
Austurríki. Sakaruppgjöfin nær til
manna af öllum flokkum: Nazista,
|konimúnista og socialista.
