JUNE 23, 1910, ft 1 A BUSINESS TRAINING The Methods That Are Used In the Schools of Germany. CLASS ROOMS AS OFFICES. The Pupils Aro Divided Into Firme That Carry on an Imaginary Trade With Each Other?The Courts From Office Boy to Director. No one will deny the fact that Germans are among the keenest business men in tbe world. And undoubtedly one of Hie secrets of their success lies In the fact that hi German schools boys are taught the practical details of business. The writer receutly returned from Hamburg after a year's course of education, and an outline of the system of training boys In business may be Interesting. On my first day's attendance I was handed a time tablo on which appeared, set out In formidable array, such subjects as commercial correspondence, laws of bills of exchange, currency, political economy and commercial law, none of which at the time conveyed much to me and raised serious doubts in my mind as to whether I should be able to understand aud ap preciate what appeared to be most abstruse subjects. At l) a. m. sharp on the fallowing day tho course began, prefaced by a couplo of hours' hard study, for the Germans are gluttons to work and think nothing of a twelve hour day. The flrst course was called "business training." We worked in two spacious rooms furnished as odices, each room representing a different business house. These two firms carried on nil imaginary trade with each other, and the routine adhered to was modeled exactly on the lines of a first class business establishment. Each firm had a director, and these two were the most eminent students In the academy. They had subject to their management and control a complete staff of correspondents, short hand writers, typists, bookkeepers, etc. The whole was supervised by a mas ter, to whom reference was made In case of dispute or difficulty. 1 > On making my appearand! I was in" * ' , ' * formed that my services were in re quest as an ofiice boy. I was some what taken back, not to snv n 1 It11?? humiliated, by the lowly position us signed to me, and I gave the master to understand that I considered I was qualified to occupy a much better post than that which ho had chosen for me He dkl not seem In the least perturbed by my remarks, but said: "You have already made a mistake?a mistake of diplomacy. One of the great maxims of business as taught here Is to do what you are told, to do It at once and do It well." With that ho handed mo a pile* of envelopes and a long list of addresses and told mo to set to work addressing them. I did so, but not with a very rrnrwl crvnnc* Hir. ??nc-fAi. l b"vtl n' ?*v-v,, *.? *. iijuoivi vuuiiiiji) luuiiu from time to time to Inspect my work. For two solid hours I plodded on until 11 n. in., when the course came to an end. Then 1 took the opportunity of going up to the master again and asking him If he did not really think I had been wasting my time in what I had been doing. "Not in the least," said he. "In everything, no matter how simple or how difficult, there Is always a good deal to learn. If you have paid attention while yon were working you will have learned something about the geography of the German empire, for eacu address contains tlio name of some Important town anil provlnco In which It is situated and tho name of somo firm celebrated for some particular class of goods." This gave me food for reflection. Ah ft matter of fact, 1 had not paid the least attention to what I had been writing; consequently I had failed to derive the benefit which It was the master's Intention I should obtain from what seemed to me at the outset a most senseless task. On the following day 1 resolved to follow out the mas ter's Instructions to the letter, und I was surprised to find how Interesting tho work became. ! continued addressing envelopes for two hours ii day for a whole week, and tho next week I received promotion. In this way I went through the whole routine, from ofllee boy to director, nud tho experience which I obtained in the various capacities has proved Invaluable to me In business. As director I had to sign checks, dictate letters, enter Into agreements with the other firm with referenco to tho sale and purchase of goods, keep an eye on the money market, work outurbltrngo calculations, draw up and Indorso bills of exchange and bills of lading, make out periodical statement)) y \ \of tftffairs, allow or dispute amount* placed to tho debit of thp firm on ac count oi general averago losses and generally supervise everything. Whllo wo were thus drilled In practical work tho theoretical sldo of business was not neglected. Lectures were given at fixed hours, ' ookkeeplng and mercantllo law. Tin we enjoyed the Inestimable advanta? of acquiring the theory and practico of business at the nanio time.?Detroit Free Press. In Bad. "I'll never offer any moro friendly advice."

A wide driveway extends along the lake front, and approaches to the building are formed by three flights of stepB, two of them twenty-live feet and one fifty feet wide, running from this driveway over ter races that add much to the natural beauty of the location. The building is lf.0 feet wide and 230 feet in length, two stories, giving ubout 30,000 square leet of exhibit Bpace. The lower floor will be agricultural products and displays that will be made by the cities and towns of the Southern Appalachian region. The upper floor, a section of which rests on solid ground?a ter lace formed in grading the Bite?will be filled with exhibits of all kinds, from heavy machinery to the moat delicate art work. In appearance the main building will surpass In beauty of architecture and finish the moat costly exposition building that has been erected in this country. It Is built with a view of housing permanent exhibits, and is, therefore, superior to any temporary exposition structures. The horticultural and woman's building, the forestry building, the cattle and live stock and pet stock building, and other buildings are being arranged for.

A number of cities have already applied for space, including Augusta, Oolumbus, Home and probably Macon and Atlanta, Cia.; Ashevllle, Charlotte and Winston-Salem, N.

The number of applications for information and space from states, cities and counties has surprised the management of the Exposition. EXPOSITION WILL BE PROFITABLE INVESTMENT. That the Appalachian Exposition at Knoxvllle, Tenn., Sept. 12 to Oct. 12, will bo a profitable investment Is now assured beyond a question of doubt. The selection of Knoxvllle tor the holding of this meritorious event In most Judicious. The wealth of her re sources, hei tremendous business, as well as geographical position, and the fact that It Is the center of a large population that haa not had au exposition or education, means a brilliant outlook for the artistic as well hh financial standpoint for this event. It is a fact worthy of note that within a radius of .'??? miles of Knoxvllle there lt< a population of 125,000; within a radius of 100 miles, of 900,000; within a radius of 200 miles, a population of ({,000,Ouo, and within a radius of 300 miles, a population of 10,000,000 people. The transportation facilities of the trunk lines leading into Knoxvllle and the affiliated lines are capable of rendering the most elllclent service. This added to the great Interest that is being taken by the railroads means that success is bound to rebound to I he work already inaugurated.
