YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED BY RADIO. Professor Hilton on November 19th, 1936, from the B.B.C. broadcast a warning. The warning was to the effect that while there are many really good and reliable Colleges teaching by correspondence, there are many others which are colleges by name only. He said some so-called colleges rented a couple of rooms in a large building in a well-known street. Some made great promises which they did not intend to fulfil. Some claimed successes they could not prove. In some cases the names of prominent men were quoted who were in no way connected with the working of the College. NOW BE ADVISED BY ME The big name of a College is no proof of its national standing. The Bennett College has been established over 30 years and our entire building is devoted to Bennett College work. No other business of any kind is either on or attached to the Bennett College. We have seating accommodation for over 10,000. We havea permanent staff “of over 190 people on the College premises. Our Professional Staff have all passed their examinations, and our tutors are all experts in their own specialised work. We do not send out any homework - to be corrected by tired, spare-time tutors. All students’ homework is corrected on the College premises the same day that it arrives, and is returned by evening post. This College is Technical, Scientific, General, and Commercial, thus enabling us to. cater for all requirements; this is important to Cost and Works Accountants, and all who have to deal with rate-fixing, machining-allowance, and it is also of great importance in many of the Civil Service Examinations. This is an entirely British College. Most of our textbooks are written on the College premises by our own professional staff, especially for tutorial purposes. Our tutors specialise in teaching students for the examinations they. themselves have already passed. THERE IS NO OTHER COLLEGE IN THIS KINGDOM THAT CAN CLAIM ALL THE ABOVE ADVANTAGES It is not necessary for students to attend the College; we can send exactly the same tuition to you by post for a reasonable fee, payable monthly. Anyone who reads the journals knows that there are many things advertised that one can study, and any kind of study is good, It is LET ME BE YOUR FATHER Let me tell you how to make a success of your. career. If your future is undecided or appears unsatisfactory, let us talk it over together. i want to help, and it will cost you nothing to get my help, you will be under no obligation whatever. training for the brain, but the best thing to study, surely, is a course specially prepared to teach your own vocation, or prepare ou for the examination which you have in view. owing that you are master of your job gives you self-confidence and personality, but a Diploma from a College is absolute proof of your efliciency. We have agencies in all English-speaking corners of the world. The nature of our business makes us keep in touch with employment requirements in all parts of the world. therefore we specialise in preparing students for the good positions which we know exist, and for all the worth-while examinations. THE ABOVE VAST ORGANISATION CAN HAVE BEEN CREATED ONLY BY THE SUCCESS OF OUR STUDENTS There is a tidein the affairs of man which, if taken at the flood, leads on to fortune and success. There are three things which come not back, the sped arrow, the spoken word, and the lost opportunity. This is your opportunity. If it is your desire to make prozress and establish yourself in a good cureer, write to us for free particulars on any subject which interests you, or, if your career is not decided, write and tell us of your likes and dislikes, and we will give you practical advice as to the possibilities of a vocation and how to succeed in it, You will be under no obligation whatever. It is our pleasure to help. We never take students for courses unless we fee] satisfied they are suitable. Do not forget that success is not the prerogative of the brilliant. Our experience of over 30 years proves that the will tu succeed achieves more than outstanding brilliancy. We are prepared to produce, on demand, over 10,000 unsolicited testimonials from successful students, or in default we will hand over £100 to charity.
