EVERYBODY KNOWS Meyer
Jacobs. His acquaintance among
people in Civil Service is literally
tremendous. His 30 years in New
York City’s employ have given him
the opportunity to participate in
many enterprises and to form some
interesting opinions about Civil
Service.
Meyer Jacobs is a friendly man.
He greets you, upon first meeting,
in a manner th a t puts you immedi­
ately a t your ease. And as you
speak to the man, you feel com­
pletely free with him—even when
you leai-n th a t he’s been a Latin
teacher, a tennis champ, a school
principal, a lawyer, a world-wide
traveller who spent three intimate
days with General Almazon in
Mexico last year during the cru­
cial election there.
His position in the city service
is th a t of Chief Clerk in the New
York Supreme Court, F irst Dis­
trict. But he reached this post
through an amazingly circuitous
route. A born New Yorker, edu­
cated in New York City’s schools,
he began his career as a play­
s i
O N E OF every four success­
ful candidates on the For­
eign Service exams comes
from Hai-vard. . . . That attorney
has decided to bring th a t elected
city official up on disbarment pro­
ceedings. . . . Federal hospital em­
ployees are paying for meals they
don’t eat. . . . The DPUI is becom­
ing more and more mechanized.
Experts have just discovered that
the seal on the dollar bill is only
an appro.ximation of the seal of
the United States. . . . That Ellis
Ranen article on management-employee relationships in public serv­
ice will appear as a pamphlet. . . .
N ew
pulled down many a tennia ♦
But he felt that his
work provided no steppj,,;,^ ““'’'I

nation netted an appointment
abstracter and verifier in the P
ister’s Office, and it wasn’t
before Mr. Jacobs found
clerk in Surrogate’s Court Hp
he served until 1920. Since jjw'o
he has held his present po«=iUon
and now receives top salarv in h,'
title.
^
Not content to remain tied down
to the .humdrum duties of a cing]
• job, Jacobs has taken on a dizzir,!
round of activities. Early in h
career as a city employee ha
served as chairman of the Civil
Service Department in the Kron
School, evening session. He has
held a Board of Education poi^ition
as principal of the Eastern Park­
way Community Center. He has
written a volume on legal practice
contributed articles to many pul>I
lications, organized and aided a variety of philanthropic and reliffious
ventures. Those who know Jacobs
say he has never hesitated to give
of his energies for any desirable
cause.
A fter so many years in the .cerv.
ice, Meyer’s knowledge of Civil
Service procedures is, a.<5 may be
expected, vast. And the kiiowledge has been of real aid to him
in his work. He has great reganl
for the merit system, and feels
th a t it could be extended even to
certain policy-making positions.
Still a comparatively younp: man,
w hat’s ahead for Meyer Jacobs?
To this interviewer he would only
say th a t he’s intere.sted in doinj?
as good a job as he can in his
present work. But as we left his
office, a policeman winked to us;
“ We’re plugging him for judge,”
said the cop.

As stated above, our graduates spend from two to four weeks Irt
our offices preparing themselves for general office training. They,
are taught how to talk with the prospective employer. We ask them
questions which the prospective employer would ask them and telt
them how to answer. Above all, we teach them to show an interest
in their work, just as though it was their own investment. Our em*

The NEW YORK BUSINESS SCHOOL, by a careful study,
learns exactly what sort of girls the better employers want and what
qualifications they require. To obtain a desirable secretarial position
today the gii4 must meet certain requirements.
The NEW YORK BUSINESS SCHOOL requires that every
girl, before entering, take an I. Q. test to determine whether or not
she is likely to develop secretarial proficiency. If the test reveals
that she is not, this school advises her to take up some other type
of work. Otily, 1< she has a particular aptitude for shorthand and
typewriting witl we accept her as a prospective student, unless it is a
case that she just wants a short course on her own responsibility, or
what we caH a brush-up course.

Because our girls are superior to start with, we are able to pre­
pare them in a relatively short time, nine to twelve months, for sec­
retarial positions with organizations of high standing like the Vogue
Magazine, Mutual Life Insurance Company, Advertisers Magazine,
Chase National Bank, etc.
BEING INTELLIGENT ISN’T ENOUGH
A*ain, being a superior girl, isn’t of itself, enough to obtain
a good secretarial position. We cannot place our girls, how­
ever attractjlve, unless we give them special training. Most
secretarial schools fall chiefly into one of two groups: Schools
which emphasiee just shorthand and typewriting, and schools
which In addition to these stenographic subjects also teach
subjects like commercial law, economics, etc. The really wellpaid secretary spends an average of less than three-fourths of
the day in taking or transcribing dictation. The rest of the
time she performs other dufeies which qualify her for a secre­
tarial position. This expe*i««ce is obtained by the NEW YORK
BUSlNHfilS SCHOOL students by training them in our general
offices after they have obtained a reasonable amount of speed
in ^lictation. These office duties consist of mailing, editorial
work, communication duMes, llling, announcing visitors to th#
