LIST OF PASSES. The following letter has been peered from the Home Study .Business Col lege, and speaks for itself: — ‘‘Dear Reverend Mother. 1 have finished going through your examination papers, ami now have inii'-h ph-e up- i" .submitting my report. In both grades of -hortliand, your pupils handled then papers except ionaßy welt. I ran see. froie the good work done by the juniors. that you have given these '-andi--i.-ites a very thorough grounding in the eieuiMit: of the ’m-r important subject. and this aecoonts for the and accurate papers of the intermediate students. In the typewriting section, the papers in all throe grades were , mueit above the average, and showed j clearlv the excel lent- in. t rue' ions you ; ;;p. g.jv’ug to these pupil ■ Ihe vari-
oils theoretical questions in bookkeeping were, well answered by the candidates. while the practical test was set r-u! in a manner which left nothing to be desired. Since all the pupils have done splendidly, it is rather invidious tu make comparisons, but 1 would call special attention to the very line work sent in by Miss Irene Dwyer. iiiis voung lady has an excellent knowledge of these important commercial studies, and from what 1 can'see of her present work, I feel sure she will give a good account of herself later on in the business world. I am sending the certificates under separate cover, and hope they will arrive safely. Ail your advanced pupils are now eligible for diplomas. Please see enclosed slip. With kind regards io yourself and the other Sisters, and again congratulating you upon your success.
