�MISS TALON JUDGE

We were very honored to have Ron Miller. News DireclOr of WDBJ-TV. to judge our Miss Talon contest this
year.
Ron spent several hours talking with the girls. both as a group and individually. Even though he could only select
a "Miss Talon" and a "Miss Talon Runner-up." he made the following comments. in writing. concerning all the
girls who were nominated by clubs and organizations of the College to run for .. Miss Talon":
"This has been a most enjoyable. yet difficult . task . All the girls are most impressive and fine representatives
of th e school. You should be very proud of their. and the College's. accomplishments. I wish there were a way
to include everyone - because I think they are all very deserving of recognition. I hope that I haven't made any
enemies. I would prefer to think I made nine new friends.··

Ten years from now, when you pick up this
annual , you will have access to at least 15
new electric appliances that don't even exist
today!
Electrical innovations will "make the scene"
(as we say in 1974) to benefit health, education, industry and our social lives. You'll also
see in the next decade more electronic equipment to purify, filter, recycle and generally
clean up America.
Electricity is do i ng a lot of things for you
now . It's going to do a lot more tomorrow.
Our prediction : Life will keep on getting better
electrically .

National Business College has been the doorway of opportunity for more
than forty thousand men and women who are now successfully engaged in
business throughout the nation and in foreign countries.
Look at us as we play, learn and develope- -for a NATIONAL education
is education of the whole man and woman through study, recreation and
cultural activities.
Each year the students of National Business College honor their own
through election to its Student Mirror. Election for the student means that
he is recognized by his peers as being the outstanding individual in his
area. We will present our Student Mirror, and then have our best, take you
on a visit of our school with their individual memories.

"Excited, confused, curious and a
little homesick" is the way Nancy remembers her first day at National. For
Alan finding his room, getting to meet his
roommates, and a housemother to know-all crowded together in one exciting day.
These are the events that mark your
first steps toward securing that NATION AL education.

National is one of the very
few business colleges that provides dormitories for its students.

IDEAL SECRET ARY

Gail Walker

I remember the classes, each designed for a particular purpose. The faculty members are
selected for inherent qualities of character and leadership as well as for educational background.
The School of Secretarial Science is designed to fit the graduate for employment at a designated
level. The School of Business Administration offers professional work in two major areas of emphasis, Accounting and Management.
Most of all the student is oriented in the competitive spirit of business by the training conditions
offer ed in the college.

Use of the dictaphone, the wiring of an
I.B .M . panel, the use of the electric and
manual models of the typewriter, along with
the customary lecture classes in Management and Accounting, all prepare the National
student for the business world.
Each course is designed to make the
student a well-trained graduate of National,
ready for the opportunity now offered in the
world of business .

Joe Capocc i
Ga il Young

The 1965 TALON, the school's
year book was my introduction to
National. Mr. Knobloch, the Director
of Admissions spoke at College Day
and was carrying a copy with him.
He mentioned the school paper, the
National News, the fraternities, the
sororities, the B.S.S., cheerleading,
and the Glee Club.
All extra-curricular activities
designed to compliment the work of
the class room. Excitement of the
big game, here at National its the
basketball program. Membership in
the National Junior College Athletic
Association, and the Eastern States
Athletic Conference, guarantees all
kinds of excitement during the winter.
Picnics, dances, bowling, softball, all kinds of events just waiting
for us. Because a National education
is the education of the whole man or
woman, through cultural, social and
educational activities.

��MOST ATHLETIC

Tom Napier

Gail Young shooting for a "spare" in the intramural duck pin
league.

Karen Schultz, one of the cheerlea ders really knows what competition can mean .

Bus ines s is the most competitive endeavor
a man can choose, so at National you prepare for
this through athletics. National has varsity programs for men and women in inter-c ollegiate bas ketball. Intramurals in bowling, s oftball, tenni s
and other sports are als o encouraged so that
everyone may find out about competing befo re he
is on the job.

10

�No school could be complete
with out a varsity sport for the
students to support. Attendance at
the home games for both Men and
Women's basketball is large .
Membership in the National
Junior College Athletic Association
has assured National Students of
excellent competition for its varsity
teams.

The desi r e t o compete--to win, can really
be seen in the face of Captain Ronnie Woods ,
(see l eft ) the 1965 -66 Basketball Captain. This
ability to go afte r the ball, will carry over into
the business wor ld, and make each student ready
for the competitiveness of the job situation.

"Excited, pleased and extremely happy" was the way
Nancy remembers her selection as Miss N.B.C. X:XX.
"Each of us, dream secretly of this happening, and here
I was getting my wish as Queen of the big social event
of National's year - The Coronation Ball."

The members of the Coronation

�The glee club performing at the Christmas Assembly for the Stud e nt body.

9/ee G/ub
The wonder of the school; with limited time to
practice, and only very few with musical training,
Mrs . Robertson's glee club year-in and year-out continues to amaze.
Appearing in seasonal assemblies and at the Coronation Ball the Club delivers melodic tunes which
depict the seasonal atmosphere.
This year a first- -a T. V. appearance over station
W.D.B.J .-T.V., Channel 7, Roanoke, Va. was added to
give the outside an opportunity to hear music at its
best.

One week after the start of the summer
quarter comes a day we look forward to all
year--the Summer Picnic at Bedford Lake.
The Student Council sponsors the Summer
Picnic and, therefore, supervises the "cooking"
of the food. Swimming, rides, the penny arcade,
volleyball, and, of course, the food--everything
t o make a perfect day.

Food, food, food!

The main contest was seeing who could stay
up the longest. Everyone agreed that the Skating
Party, sponsored by the Athletic Council, was a
success. Some , quite expert, performed for an
attentive audience. Others struggled to barely
roll along. Tired and weary, sore of muscle,
everyone chimed, "we'll have to do this again".

�Open Jfouse

The Get-Acquainted dance, held at the Elk's
Club, provides a wonderful opportunity for meeting and having fun with new friends.
This first, big, main event of the new school
year is filled with dancing to music by a local
band; games and sing-alongs led by various clubs,
and contests. The Student Council sponsors the
Open House and offers prizes to all winners.

The weather was perfect, the surroundings
beautiful, the games hilarious, the food good,
and the picnickers were in the mood. This was
the scene at the annual Fall Picnic held at
Fishburn Park. Contests included pie-eating,
sack and wheelbarrow races, and a tug-of-war
between the old and new students. Another
great opportunity to enjoy your favorite activity
with your favorite type of person.
The Student Council sponsored the Fall
Picnic, which ended in a frantic search for a
contact lens.

The Fall Dance is the "get acquainted" dance at N .B.C.
Coming three weeks after the opening of school, the boys
have had a chance to meet the girls; and this is the first
college dance for most of them.
This year Toby's Lodge was the site, and from all
indications, a big success.

The King and Queen and the Court were chosen
by popular vote from within the student body.
Pennies were the votes, and the student could
vote as long as his money held out.
The highlight of the evening was the announcement of Miss Gail Walker as Snow Queen and
Mr. Ronnie Woods, the Snow King.

1965~1966

Winning basketball takes more .than just five players--fans _yellin_g-cheering from the students led by 5 very pretty, very excited girls
always seems to bring that little extra effort.

''We need 2 points, we need 2
points ! " "Go, Go!" The roar of the
crowd, sparked by five excited, yelling
girls shows that N .B.C. is out to win
another game.
Long hours, hard practice and attendance at every home game is a
must for membership as a cheerleader. It's work, but fun and without
a group of cute girls to cheer you on
it's not really basketball.

A 29 game schedule; a post-season tournament and 3 returning lettermen was all that Coach
DeMunche had for 1965-66.
But the season turned out not just one "big
man", but2, 6'6" Pat Leach and 6'4 1/2" Phil Reynolds--both boys that came to play.
Ronnie Wood and Tom Napier played up to their

potential and Robbie Vazquez gives promise to be
a "good one" in 1966-67.
Twelve wins and 12 losses didn't give a winning
season, but gives promise for the coming year.
The boys can score and they play to win--next season with the experience gain--they'll put it all
together and come up with a big year.

The second team played a sixteen game city
league schedule, and only losing 6 games while
winning 10.
These boys gained that valuable ingredient-experience and figure very much in Coach DeMunche's plans for next season.
Basketball for 1966-67 is just around the corner
and we are ready!

Eighteen men out for basketball for the 1965-66
season; two teams, one playing a 24 game varsity
schedule, including a post season tournament in
Baltimore, Maryland.
Finishing the year with a 12 win, 12 loss season, but what's more important everyone back
for the next season. A coach needs a team with
experience.

Deep thought, last minute planning--these games are played to be won!

seriousness as the pictures on the left

Struggling with only 3 lettermen
back from a losing team the Eagles
ended the season with a rush winning
5 in a row, losing only the last game
in the E as t e r n States Invitational

This gave the Eagles a .500 season

One job where being surrounded by your work isn't so bad.

After not having girls' basketball for the
past 3 seasons, Athletic Director E. R. DeManche set up a schedule involving the local
hospitals and other local teams, and called
practice himself.
The girls played preliminary games to the
boys' varsity games, thus giving a big doubleheader for the students' enjoyment.
Plans have already been laid for a 6-team
league for the 1966-67 season and the girls
are looking forward to it.

�Girls basketball is back at National and for those involved
it was fun . These girls really want to wi n and this year they
did it three times . Wait t ill next year.

MR.

ELBERT M. COULTER
President Emeritus

Reversing the trends of the early 1900's, which were made famous with the words, "Go West,
Young Man, Go West," Mr. Elbert M. Coulter came East to Roanoke, Virginia, for fortune and
fame.
He started as an instructor in the old National Business college and, exhibiting the traits th.at
have marked all the great men of this era -- determination, perseverance. a winning smile - - •he
moved forward and became its President and Owner.
Keeping in mind that the individual needs the best training available, he moved his school to
the new building, which now bears his name, and provided the best facilities possible. Thus, no
phase of the individual's education would be neglected.

NATIONAL BUSINESS COLLEGE has

become a model for schools all through the South. We, the staff of the TALON, know that National
is the spirit and body of this man, and in recognition we dedicate this '57 issue to him .

�MRS. MARYE. COULTER

Tilis is but half of the story of National; behind every great man there is a woman! In the
case of our President, she was not always behind the scenes. Exhibiting the new freedom accor ded
women of this era, Mrs. Mary E. Coulte r moved shoulder to shoulder with her husb and sh a ring
victory and defeat -- but always exhibiting the traits that have endeared her to those who have gone
before us.
We, the staff of the TALON, take great pleasure in dedicating our 195 7 is s ue to this man and
woman -- husband and wife.
by the following quotation:

They have shown that spirit of the Amer ican people bes t expressed

" Upward to success , but sharing one's life with l ove and affection for

each other. "

�On February 20th, the student body was brought back
to the good old days of "the eight-a-day" and the "gay '90."
Eight acts of good entertainment were present, with 5
of the acts being made up of members of the faculty, student
body, and past graduates. The balance of the acts were from
the Virginia Talent Association. W .R.O. V., the local radio
station, furnished JACKSON as the M.C., and he held a
"sock-hop" after the show in one of the class-rooms on the
2nd floor.
A large turn out viewed the show, and from the laughter and shouts the show seemed to be a success. The purpose
of it all was to raise money to help pay for this annual.

The 1956-57 basketball season opened with
only 1 veteran returning from last year's team. Jim
Brittan, recently graduating from college and a fine
basketball player himself, was given the task of
molding a fighting team from a group of inexperienced players .
The closeness of the scores showed how well
he accomplished this task. Each man showed fight ,
and determination, and the team gave each opponent
a rough battle.
These new men should form the core of a
fighting, winning, and exciting team for next sea son.

For the first time, the bowling Leagues were combined during the 1956-57 season. Eight teams were formed with 3 boys and two girls on the seven student teams,
andthe eighth team was composed of faculty members. A double round-robin schedule
was made up and the team Captained by Paul Setliff won, while losing only six points
all season.
The matches were held each Monday afternoon, right after school. For the first
two weeks the faculty team gave the students a fright, by holding down first p-lace,
but fell back when the pressure was applied to finally finish in sixth place. Listed below are the individual winners. Ed Stickly was ·the big man week after week, turning
in a 159 single, and match total of 392.

January 31, 1957

To the Student Body:
Keeping pace with the growth of National Business College, the 1957 edition
of the Talon is the largest ever published . We have tried to record for y ou
the _events of the past year as they happened, and to preserve some of the
achievements of you and your classmates. This has been a full and wonderful
y ear' and it is the hope and the wish of the Talon Staff that this yearbook
will help you reminisce the good old college days·
Words cannot adequately express my gratitude and appreciation to all who
have_ helped to make this annual possible. A million thanks go to all the
section editors for assistance in scheduling pictures and writing copy. To
the typists who spent much of their free time in working for our staff. To
Frank Kennedy, who gave gladly of his vacation time to prepare the hundreds
of pictures appearing in this book.
To the Talon Editor, Sylvia Willard, my sincere appreciation for all y our
ever-ready and willing assistance. Putting out this annual was an exp erience
I will long remember. It has been rough at times but it was made easier and
more pleasant by the association and co-operation of so many fine p eople . To
all of you I can say nothing more than Thanks from the bottom of my heart.
To you the readers, may you enjoy the Talon, as much as we ha ve enjo y e d
compiling and publishing it.
Respectfully,

C;/&amp;~

�Foreword

HERElJER business men gather for discussion of the
problems of production and distribution, the talk will
turn to the amazing development of the South.
Startling as the growth of the South must seem to
other sections, it is but the logical outcome of the grow . .
ing realization of the overwhelming natural advantages that
are here.
qhe great trek Southward of Capital, lndustrl]
and Population was inevitable.
Here is a great and easill] accessible market for
commodities of all kinds. Business is good in the South.
People can and do but]. Automobile registrations gained
23 per cent as against the national increase of 13 per cent
during the past l]ear. Building in the South last t]ear m. .
creased 45 per cent over the preceding l]ear.
Here is Opportunitl] 1
vantage of it?

How can l]OU best take ad . .

lt is the l]Oung men and women of the South who

must sooner or later face this question as an individual prob . .
lem. Upon their shoulders will fall the responsibilitl] of
leading this prosperous countrl] into the greater prosperitl]
ahead.
q o l]OU, Southern 1J outh, this Book of Business is
dedicated in the firm conviction that it will aid l]OU as it has
others in properll] meeting these issues of progress.

MARSHALL FIELD, that great nzerchant prince, once said: " The man who
puts $10 ,000 additional capital into an
established business is pret~y certain of increasing
returns; and in the same waJ', the man who puts
additional capital into brains-information with
dfrected thought and study of possibilities-will as
surely, yes, mo1'e surely, get increased returns. There
is no capital, and no increase of capital safer and
surer than that.''
Your brain is your capital in life. You are ambitious and interested in the development of your
brain, or you would not be reading this book .
You realize that the world is calling for that brain
of yours if properly prepared. You realize as Charles
M. Schwab has said, ''The captains of industry in
America are not seeking moneJ1; they a1'e looking for
brains-specialized brains.''
To the y oztng men and y oung women who are able
to visualize the future that business offers th em, we,
believing that what follows will aid in constructive
and intelligent planning fo r the future, dedicate this-

I believe that every )'Ou ng
man and woman who wants
to su cceed in business should
do as I did-take a course al
a comm ercial college.

T

HE ROANOKE NATIONAL BUSINESS COLLEGE,
for a period of fort y- three years, most of the tim e und e r
the same managem e nt, has gone forward o n its own worth
in doing one thing well. That one thing has been the proper
education of young men and young wome n in the fundam e ntal
necessities of business. It has educated along the line of bus iness
and placed in lucrative positions literall y thousands o f young
m e n a nd women who are emp loyed in local busin ess concerns
and other firms from Main e to Orego n and from Michigan t o
Texas.
v\7ith an aggrega te of over 20,000 alumni scattered throughout
the length and brea dth of the land, it is in fact and not m e rely in
name a national institution of business education .
The R oa noke National Business College is a private institution, receiving no State aid and having no endowment fund. Its
success has been due entirely to its own m erits, for no institution
without endowment funds, without support from the public
treasury, or other similar sources, could exist fort y-three yea rs,
if it did n o t genuinely m erit success.
Due t o the success that it has made, The R oa noke Nationa l
Business College is one of the bes t know n institutio ns of its kind
in th e entire South, and is frequently referred to m ere ly as
"That splendid busin ess college in R oa noke ." Thi s designation
is a tribute t o its supe ri o r work.
Following then upon its record of s u ccess which in turn ha s
made it m ost favorably known, The R oa noke National Busin ess
College must of necess ity be an established instituti o n. In its
work it places the student above the dollar. Its cornerstones are
h onesty, thoroughness, virt~1e ~nd justice. _It has not hing in
com m on , and ca n have not h111 g 1l1 co mmo n with schools offerincr
ch eap and inadequate courses of stud y which prove in the e nd
o nl y a detriment a nd disappointment to all concerned.
The R oa noke Natio nal Business College ow ns a nd occup ies
its own building, valu ed at mor e than $ 300 ,000. Thi s building
h as bee n espec iall y planned for the purposes of the coll ege. The

department of The Roanoke National Business College, you see
a modern, up-to-date and properly conducted business office
full y functioning.
The advantages of a large school are similar to the advantages
offered by any large enterprise. Anyone who will stop to reason
intelligently will recognize at once that a large enterprise can do
many things, secure many benefits and afford many advantages
not possessed by a smaller concern.
The large school attracts and secures better teachers.
The large school maintains a better equipment.
The large school is, because of its extensive acquaintance,
ca ll ed upon to fill more and better positions with its graduates.
The large sc hool can, for economic reasons, give greater va lue
than any small school can possibly give.
The inspiration that comes from numbers, the e nthusiasm that
comes by association with willing workers, the training afforded
by competitive effort are of a value that cannot be expressed or
estimated in dollars. This va luabl e training is only possible in a
large school and alone is sufficient to recommend a large school
to any intelligent person.
The Roanoke National Business College is one of the largest
schools of its kind in the South.

College has th e advantage of being co ntinuall y abreast o f the
fast-moving times, thus graduating its students with an ed ucation
that is modern. It does not teach its students the m e th od s o f
business dis ca rded five ~· ea rs ago, but it teac hes th e m e th ods
required for th e present and those w hi c h wi ll be req uired in th e
future .
Dr. B. H. Va n Oot, Supe rv iso r of Trade and Indu s trial
Education for Vi rgini a, says: "The business coll ege is perhaps
th e mos t perfectly orga ni zed vocational institution in ex ist e n ce
today. It is th e one voca tional institution which has not as yet
been hid ebound by tradition and artificial barri e rs. Its rnrriculum is definite, its o bj ec ti ves are clearly seen and large ly unde rstood, th e training and education are specific and lead t owa rd
we ll-de fined fi elds of work. Each unit of ins tructi o n is so
orga ni zed that th e tim e required b y a n y average s tu de nt to
co mpl ete any given unit is approximately determined. Th e
curriculum is st ripp ed of all nonesse nti als so that th e st ud e nt
receives the ma ximum of practical skill and inform at io n in the
minimum of tim e commensurate with his abilitv."
"The business college occupies a fi eld which is peculiar to
itself a nd th e standards which must be se t up must be determined
by th ose factors which co ntrol the activities o f th e business
coll ege."
That is Th e R oa nok e National Business College!
Happ y, prosperous careers await eve r y yo ung man and yo ung
woman of today-bountiful lives o f success, achievement and
distinction, if thes e young men and young women only demand
it. This is th e golden age of oppo rtunit y, but oppo rtunit y for_o'.1ly
those who a re prepared to grasp it. Lincoln with his amb1t10n
but minus books or eve n a li g ht with which t o study; Jackson
holding th e high position of President but e mbarras sed for lack
of educatio n; Ford a m ec hanic but t oday the world's ri c hes t m a n;
A.l Smith a product of th e eas t side of N ew Y or k but rece nt_J y a
cand idate for the high est offic e within the gift of th e Amenca_n
people- th ese men of achievement would hav e given half th eir
lives for th e opportunities that today confront our youn g m en
and yo ung wo men.
The Modern Busin ess College is the medium which mak es
such achi eve ment possib le for ou r Amer ican yo uth. It has
ope ned a new vista to th em and us hered in a new era. The very
nature of the orga ni zatio n is conducive to progress . Onl y am~ng

T SHOULD NOT take the ey e of a prophet to see that
history is being made in the present day development of
the South. At o ne time we were wont to think of the
South as a land of laziness; miles upon miles of rolling and
unproductive plantatio n lands; petted and pampered youth of
an aristocratic division of the country growing up into indifferent and irresponsible men and women. Today, we see in the
South a new land. It is not today the Old South but the
New South that is calling its attention to an amazed world .
Fields that were once unproducti ve are lade n with crops;
towns and cities that ha ve produced little are hummin g with
the buzz of industry ; yo ung men and women through proper
preparation are taking their st and in the forefront of the
nation's leaders.
The entire South is advancing at a s t a rtlin g ra t e. Never
befo re have the ad va ntages which lie in its natural resources,
its unlimited suppl y o f domestic labor, its proximity to num ero us ports a nd its un equal ed markets bee n full y reali zed .
The Sou th has s tarted toward its fullest development. T he
burden of thi s co ntinued development rests upo n the shou lders
o f th e yo unger generation . For those young men and y oung
women who are prepared to tak e their pla ces in this great age
o f indu s tri al development, a nd to m eet the keen competiti o n
of th e twentieth ce ntury, unlimited oppo rtuniti es are awaiting .

It is the desire of ever yo n e associated with T he Roan oke
:\l"ational Busin ess College to aid in th e preparation of these
futur e leade rs o f the nati on. Your su ccess in life is our g reatest
co nce rn. To see you properly trained for the responsibiliti es
that li e before is our objective .

BUSINESS DEPARTMENTS
lSINESS today is the greatest of all professions. No one shou ld expect to qualify for a sucB l cessful
career without a business education. It is impossible in a few weeks or m o nths to master
thoroughly t he subjects which pertain to commercial life. Thirty or fort y years ago, three months'
attendance covered the usual course, but as business requirements became more exacting, business
m e n d e manded better and more thoroughly trained assistants. The Roanoke National Business
College is an institution giving such training.
This work is given in four departments; namely, Introductory Commercial, Actual Business
Aud iting and Accounting, Banking and Finance, A.ccountancy and Business Administration . Th e
work is designed not on! y to make good bookkeepers and efficient office help but successful business
men and high-grad e accountants. These departments are explained and outlined on subsequent
pages.

is believed that the principles which will lead to success
in the Acco untin g D epartment of a busin ess enterprise will
be equa ll y vital to the success of a young man who accepts a

position in th e Accounting D epa rtment will kno w what
information shou ld be furni shed th e heads of other departments , and he wi ll know the form in which th e information
shou ld be provided to be mos t use ful. The s tudent who
accepts a pos ition in any ot her department wi ll know what
information ma y be obtained from the Accounting Dep artment, and what use to mak e of the inform at ion furnis hed.
l n other words, the stud ent with a thorough training in t he
operation and supervision of accounts ma y choose betwee n
two broad p a th s of prog ress ; name ly , first, Accounting as an
occupation in itse lf, with the p rospec ts of stead y advancement to responsible and remunerative positions; second ,

SALESMANSHIP COURSE

T

HIS COURSE gives the student a cl ea r idea of business ethics. It clearly shows that ch aracte r in com bination with brains, efficientl y trained, is the highest
priced, best paid product in the world; t ha t ch aracter is th e
basis of all business success; th at a man who attempts to
take advantage of another in a busin ess tra nsac ti on is not a
salesman but a robber; t hat a man who resorts to sharp
practice is not only dishonest but foo lis h, si nce such practice
inevitably leads to failure .
T hi s course h as aro used in ternationa l en thu sias m because
it teaches an individua l how to deve lop his perso nalit y an d
how to s tudy human nature. It teaches the philosop h y of
leadership, mental and business efficie ncy, as well as the
essentials and art of salesmans hip. T h is s tudy reaches down

SECRETARIAL DEPARTMENTS
OFFICIAL in answering the question, "Why should young men study shortA RAILROAD
hand?" made the following reply :
"For instance, in railroad work, a stenographer comes in contact with officers more quickl y
through the stenographic route than through any other route, and if he has a desire to work and the
ability to absorb, there is no limit to his opportunities. I have run across quite a number of big
railroad m e n in the last few yea rs who started as stenographers."
Th e Co mplete Secre tarial and Stenographic Courses of The Roanoke National Business College
are designed not for the purpose of producing mediocre stenographers who are capable of filling only
secondary positions, but cover sufficient knowledge and training to make of an intelligent person
an efficient, thorough, capable stenographer and lay the foundation which with experience and
practice will develop private secretaries and court reporters.

WHAT MoNEY I s NEEDED?
Do not hesitate to start a course because of lack of sufficien t fun ds to pay expe nses for the entire cou rse. Onl y a
co mparati ve ly small a mou nt is needed to begin studies.
St udents of co urse must have enough money to pay for
books and sta ti one ry, one month's tui tion a nd one mon t h's
board, all of whic h wi ll amount to less t han $7 VJO t he first
month. Afte rwards it need not exceed $55.00 a month.
Mo ney may be sent from home mont hly as needed. Pupils
may at all times deposi t money or va lu ables in the Coll ege
safe and withdraw it when desired.
SHOULD MONEY BE BORROWED?
We are ofte n asked if it is advisable to borrow the mon ey
with which to secure a bu siness ed ucation. To t his questioi1
we answe r: I f you, yo ung 1nan or young woman, have the
elemen ts of success in yo u and believe that a business education is all tha t you need, more than you now possess, to
enabl e yo u to ea rn success, and if you have not t he mone y,
we say borrow it. By the elements of success we me an
health, honesty, willingness to work , an ambition to succeed,
agreeab leness of manne r and determination of purpose.
Hu ndreds of yo ung peop le have taken our advice in t his
matter and have neve r regretted it, re turning the borrowed
money withi n a few months afte r graduation.
W HERE Do I SECURE Boo Ks?
T he boo ks and other sta ti onery are kept in the Coll ege
Book Store. T he cost of t hese mav be found in t he outline of
co urses elsewhere in t hi s carlog. Th e textbooks used in the
Natio nal hav e bee n verv carefull1' selected for t he ir acc uracv

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
It gives me pleasu r e to state that I have known of the National
Business Col l ege for a number of years and that my good opinion of it
has been strengthened during the past session or two in which my son
has been a st u dent there . All facts that have come to my notice
ind i cate that good work i s done in the courses of instruction , that
the life of the schoo l is wholesome, making for good c i tizenship , . and
that the various memb ers of the facu l ty are men and women of ab i li ty
and character who take a personal interest in the progress and general .
we l fare of the students.
Very respectful ly,
(S i gned)

Mr . M. A. Smythe,
,Nat i onal Business Co l lege,
Roanoke, Va.
Dear Mr . Smythe:
I just wi sh to state a few facts and try to express to you my
app r eciation for what your college has done toward the development of
my two g i r l s.
.
When these gir l s completed their high school course , we began to
discuss in the family c i rc l e what cou rse could be pursued to further
their education and to t r ain them for masterin g the prob l ems of this
l ife .
After some t i me, it was decided that the g irls should take a
course at the National Business Co l lege, partly because it would take
less time and l ess f inancing to compl ete your courses t han other
co ll eges, but ma i nly because of "The National's" eff i c i en cy.
.
After the gir l s entered the Nationa l , I was deli ghted to_ f ind
that you combined with the intellectual training a daily routin e of
l ectures by good men and time l y advice b y the facu l ty that develops
character and personal ity i n the l ife of the student.
.
.
Since the further i ng of my acquaintance with this ins t i tut ion , I
find that the man agement and faculty are men and women of great minds
and nob l e cha r acters, who are worthy to be in t rusted with the t rainin g
and development of any boy or g i r l .
_During the stay of my g irls at The National there h as grown
.
within me a strong social tie for the above management and faculty,
which I fee l shal l l ast as long as I live.
I wish I had words to
really express my appreciation , but al l I know to say i s, "I am
sa tisf i ed."
Yours very truly,
(S i gned)
W. W. Likins.
