Choosing a School for Your
Son or Daughter
is a very difficult thing to 4o unless you have personally
visited and investigated a large number. In order to help .
you and save you a great amount of correspondence and
tiresome investigation, LEDGER CENTRAL sent out
a college graduate to visit schools and colleges. He has
spent several months visiting alkthe best schools in the ;
East, securing all sorts of information at first hand
and is qualified to help you find the school best suited to
the peculiar needs of your boy or girl, at whatever price
you can afford to pay. The service is free, and we suggest
that 'you get in touch with the Bureau at once, as many t
schools are registering pupils now, and will be filled to
capacity before June, Call, write or phone.
