time ;o business training is shown by
an examination of the enrollment at,
the Hamilton Business College. Last
year 47 students took business train-
ing in connection with their University
work. Of this number about three-
fourths were women. There were also
13 University graduates enrolled at
the business college, most of whom
were full-time students.
"Typewriting is the subject most
frequently studied by the college wo-
men," says Mr. F. G. Hamilton, head
of the business college. A number of
University students also take short-
hand, and a few enroll in bookkeep-
ing classes.
According to Mr. Hamilton, Univer-
sity women usually take business
training for one of two reasons. They
study shorthand and typing either for
their own personal use, or with the
intention of getting a position later
on. Journalism studerj s and those
planning on doing library work form
a large percentage of the total num-1
ber taking business training. Not in-
frequently, the stenographic training
received enables women to help put
themselves through the University.
"A large number of college women,"
says Mr. Hamilton, "feel that the

bined with business training is more
interesting and also more profitable
than work in education."
Another group of women who en-
roll in the business college is com-
posed of those who have taken a year
or two of university work and found
that they were not suited to it. These
women turn to business college for
their training. As a rule they make
more rapid progress in commercial
studies than do women who have had
only high school training.

"It is best to arrange a lighter
schedule of University work if you are
planning to take business training
also," concludes Mr. Hamilton. "Short-

courses offered in universities, never-

women are capable of rapid progress,
if they will devote enough time and
interest to their commercial work."
