Show Training Women Tut Business. A business woman's college has been just opened in London, or, to describe the excellent institution's aims more exactly, a school for the business training train-ing of women has been established. The school is mainly designed to train women wo-men for clerkships and secretaryships. They are taught shorthand, typewriting, typewrit-ing, accounts and banking in a course extending over six rnilfcths. The opportunities oppor-tunities are offered gentlewomen who, suddenly thrown by financial mishap on their own resources, can catch up a profession pro-fession by which to support themselves. Besides this the school accepts as pupils women who wish to learn how to keep their own books and personally manage their own independent fortunea Then, too, women apply who have a chance for a government position and must be well up in mathematics and get through; Bpecial examinations. From its graduating gradu-ating classes the school supplies secretaries secre-taries to busy philanthropical ladies who need help in their work in the form of a capable head for figures and a neat hand at penmanship.
