But after twenty-two years of continuous and beneficial educa- tional work, the International Correspondence Schools are no longer an experi- ment. They have proved themselves to be so valid’ and effective in disseminating instruction and providing training that many unscrupulous persons have tried to gain profit by similar enterprises which lacked ether a legitimate financial basis or a sound educational foundation. The newspapers of the count have recently given wide publicity to the efforts of a group of former employees of the International & or’ ndence Schools to discredit the financial management of the institution. A bill was in- troduced into the M duce assachusetts General Assembly pu: activities of Correspondence Schools in that Commonwealth. rting to late the e International pi ogg | Schools have no objection to this measure nor to similar ones in other ates. Fully conscious of doing a perfectly — business, they are anxious that the public should be protected from solely to market stock or furnish inferior instruction. ogus enterprises designed But at a public hearing upon the bill held in Boston, March 18th, it was obvious that the measure was introd luced simply to give certain men an oppor. or- tunity to discredit and depress the financial standing of the Internationa respondence Schools. on their own -account. This was proved c by the fact that those who urged the passage of the bill were former employees of the Schools who are at engaged in trading in the securities of the International Correspondence resent hools Their purpose in attacking the institution is personal profit. We are, therefore, taking every possible precaution to protect those who are interested financially or Correspondence Schools. ucationally in the work of the International For this purpose we lay before the public the following facts: The International Co dence Schools had their birth in a humani impulse. The first course of it ion was in coal mining, designed to saf the lives of miners by educating mine - foremen and superintendents. That course was quickly followed by others until now there are 275 courses of study. During the past twenty-two years no fewer than 1,651,765 students have been enrolled in the United States and Canada, and enrollments are now being at the rate of 100,000 a year. The preparation of the textbooks by the Schools for the use of students has cost: more than $2,000,000. These texts are prepared solely for the work of instruction by correspond- ence and form the most up-to-date library of by tie fat ies Cy tave bawe pentoeend eon y the tl ve are being used for classroom work or for reference purposes in 167 universities, colleges, institutes of technology and other well-known institutions of learning. The University of California has just discarded its textbooks dealing with the strength of materials. It has had I. C. S. in- struction Papers on that subject bound into volumes and adopted them for the use of its students. The United States Navy Depart- ment is oe 15,000 textbooks in the new na’ shipboard schools, and this is about one-fifth of what will be required when @hese schools are in full operation. The International Correspondence Schools are now the greatest teaching institution inthe world. They have become a powerful factor in enhancing ind efficiency. They have in- creased the earning power of hundreds of thou- sands of men andwomen, and, more than all. they have become a t social and moral influence by creating ambition, stimulating hope. and preaching self-reliance to their student body. In Scranton, the International Correspond- ence Schools transact their business in buildings valued at $1,159,280.29, while their copyrights and plates are conservatively estimated as worth $1,864,404, after a liberal annual allow- ance has been made for depreciation. Every effort is being made to keep the students at their studies in order that they may receive thefull benefit of their courses. During the year 1918 no fewer than 805,079 or Me ual, letters ware pant ot to seaderr, ith no other purpose than encourage an inspire them . their work. Besides these, 208,813 special letters were mailed to students Gealing with particular difficulties encountered in the progress of their studies. The Interna- tional Correspondence Schools are faithfully, earnestly and persistently trying to convey in- struction and create efficiency by every possible method, and that they are succeeding is attested by the multitude of students who have risen to positions of power, affluence and honor as the result of their training. One feature not always understood by the public is the en ic manner iw which the Correspondence is enroll their students. Hundreds of agents or representatives go into the homes, mills, factories and shopa to persuade men that they can be benefited by a course of instruction. These agents create ambition and stimulate a desire for education. They tell men, and they prove their point by innu- merable examples, that they can make them- selves more efficient in their present occupation or qualify themselves for other and more con- genial and more remunerative occupations by a course of study at home in their spare time. The cost of establishing these agencies has been very great, but the results have amply justified the investment from every standpoint. lp to the present the International spondence Schools have spent $1,703,965 in agency establishment. More than one million dollars ot capital now ‘in the treasury of the Company will be used to develop still turther the facilities for offering education to the peng, Hitherto the largest part ot the work of the I. C. S. has been in the cities and towns, but the rural districts of America are to be opened immediately by establishing automo- bile and motorcycle routes. It will be seen at a glance that the $8,500,000 capitalization of the International Textbook Company, which operates the Inter- national Correspondence Schools, is really modest when the cost ot creating the institu- tion, carrying on the business and i the tacilities tor education are considered. Fj the institution had not been upon a sound financial basis, under careful Be busi- ness management and turnishing bona fide education and technical training it would have broken down long ago. Twenty-two years ot ever-widening business, untl the Schools now have 6000 persons in their em- age are seliiewnns evicenice ot the valid- ity and permanence of the institution. Since their foundation the Schools have done a gross business amounting to $85,753,140 and have distributed. cash dividends. amounting to $7,025,872 and stock dividends of $1,875,000. The International Correspondence Schools are not interested in any enter- priae that is not organically connected with their work of providing sfonton or the people. They are free from entanglements that might weaken or injure thei " cational efficiency, and they gladly court the inspection or invertieatine otal proper authorities. Their sole purpose is to give special training to all who can- not acquire it by any other means, and in doin; this they place their cost plant d their valuable facilities at the disposal of the Government, the i i corporation or the individual who desires to profit therefrom. © Industrial Scranton, Pa., March 16, 1914, vp Pr ‘4
