POOR ENGLISHI

How much is it costing you in wasted opportunity!

Every day your associates are judging you. By what you say and how you say it. Hary ideas, fil-chosen words, halting sentences, crude, slovenly speech - these mark a man as loose in thinking. Thoughts clear-cut, words that give true shape and colour, sentences same with power and originality-these are the things that proclaim ability, that win for their users swift advancement ! ...

Make Your Words Reflect Your Trus Ability

Stop apologizing for poor English-It's inexcusable! In the quiet of your homo-with La Salle's help-you can learn to speak and write with real distinction, learn to make the words you utter, and the letters you compose stamp you'as educated, cultured, a power to reckon with in the business world {"
