Ten years' experience, with all sorts and conditions of boys, have taught us how to do this...We bring out his especial points and strengthen the weak ones. There's a great deal in the school...There are a good many boys we have started off, started off right. They were right boys to begin with, and they are right boys yet...You have a boy; we have a Business School. We want to get together... |
