Dear Sir:

/ire you not about ready to resume your law studies?We know you w il l never regret completing our Course and you w il l have accomplished one o f the b ig things in l i f e .

You cannot afford to miss the opportunity to do something more than the average man. Do matter whether you practice law or not, a legal education w i l l place you head and shoulders above the man who never studied law. The degree o f LL. B. has a re­cognized standard which no one can take from you.

You have made a good beginning, why not continue? Don’ t give up your ambition; don’ t be a qu itter.

I f i t is a question o f expense, we w il l arrang the tu ition to suit your convenience; w ill furnish text-books as cheaply as possible or w il l even loan them to you free o f charge.

.ssuring you o f our best wishes and desire to help you in every way possible, and hoping to hear from you by return mail, we are

Yours very tru ly,

S T A T E B A N K OF C H I C A G O

C H I C A G O .

June, 7, 1916.

Side Talks to Pupils4J The course consists of ten lessons, forwarded one at a time. Five require written work. The student sends in his Reply Sheet to be examined, cor­rected, and returned to him with the next lesson.

Try to set aside a certain period of each day for the study of the lessons. The morning is the best time for mental work. Pay strict attention to the directions.

Dear Mr. Skota:-

I have not yet received the Reply Sheet to the la s t lesson sent you.

I t is my great desire-to have you go on with the work STEADILY because I want you to reap the benefits that w i l l surely c6me to you a3 the re ­sult o f conscientious and persistent e f f o r t in im­proving your memory by fo llow ing the d irections given in my Course o f Memory Training.

41 Be content to learn a little at a time, but learn it thoroly. Be satisfied with a little gain each day. Failure may re­sult from attempting to accomplish too much at one time. Remember you are endeavoring to correct wrong mental habits of years’ standing;—do not expect to overcome them in a week.In time you will be able to master pages where now you cannot remember lines.

I know that i t is d i f f i c u l t fo r many o f my students to find the time required fo r the work, but I b e lieve that almost every person can find a few spare minutes each day. I would advise you to get up about twenty minutes e a r l ie r in the morning, as you w i l l find that you can do better mental work a f te r a n igh t 's rest. I t is tru ly wonderful what can be accomplished by regular, systematic, and pers istent e f fo r t in any d irection .

41 Do not take up the Second Lesson until you know the First. Perma­nent results are secured only by the complete mastery of each principle.

Trusting to rece ive a le t t e r from you in the near future, t e l l in g me o f your progress and requesting that the next lesson be sent you, I am with best wishes,

1} Enjoy your work. At first it may seem difficult, but good habits of study, once cultivated, give real satisfaction.

41 Study each lesson with the determination to re­member it for all time. It is folly to cram for a special occasion and forget every­thing later.

41 The habit of aimless read­ing of newspapers and magazines has destroyed thousands of good memor­ies. Limit your read­ing to what is essential. Read less and observe more.

My Friend,

I thank you very much fo r your le t te r o f

the 6th instant, the contents o f which I very mush

appf e c ia te .

I am glad to note that you followed the

Court proceedings at Lobatsi with so much in terest,

and although the press did not g ive you a l l that was

said, yet you gathered from i t some useful information.

I t was a hard f igh t we put up, the most that mortal men

could do, and although the Judge has reserved his

judgment fo r a la te r date, yet with your prayers and

good wishes we are hoping f o r the best.

I must again thank you for your kind o f fe r

o f assistance wehn I so need, and as stated before, I

shall not hes ita te to ca ll on your advice and assistance

when I need them. I t is so comforting to know that one

has friends who are ready to come to his assistance at

his c a l l . Up to the present I have not found i t

necessary to c a l l on you fo r advice and assistance, butthe

shall do so when/oppomtunity comes.

Regarding the financia l assistance to help

Advocate W ill Stuart to carry on his scheme, I regret I

am unable to do anything, as the receht case I have been

engaged in meant a great deal of expense. I regret very

much my in a b i l i t y to ass is t , otherwise I would w i l l in g ly

do. . . /

do so in view o f the good purpose fo r which this

assistance is ca lled .

Re la tive to your v i s i t to this te r r ito ry , I

can again assure you that you would he welcome i f only

you could l e t me know in time before you come, as

otherwise you might find me away from home i f you do

not write to t e l l me when you may come.

Again thanking you fo r your hice le t t e r , and

with a l l good wishes,

Yours s incerely ,

Mr. T. I). M. Skota, E06, Bree Street, Johannesburg.

.Rear Mr. Skota,

As I mentioned to Mr. Persson this afternoon, that you had been in for the manuscripts for the Hymnal, he regretted he was unable to see you. I assured him that your order from the Bishop was fu l l correct to fetch the manuscripts so this thing is a l l r igh t.

time Regarding your f i r s t payment can I in the mean-wkiig only give you an rough idea. I made an inquire to Rev. Persson about i t ana he w i l l probably suggest you put aown approximatesly 100-0-0 pounds, covering our own outpay for the paper. You w il l get. nore specified statement from Rev. Persson himself as soon as you are able to place the job a fte r hearing from your Conference.
