Miss E. Z. S., writes: " Accept thanks for Diploma, I am very pleased with it and have greatly benefitted from the instructions given in your institution."

From Miss E. A. J., Brighton: "Thanks to the excellent teaching received at your Academy, I am appointed teacher of Svenoaks as well as at Tunbridge Wells."

Miss B. P. writes : " 1 am pleased to say that I have benefitted from your judicious care in teaching me, and I thank you very much for your patience, and should I have an opportunity of recommending the Tailor and Cutter Cutting Academy I shall not fail to do so."

Mrs. H. writes : " I have attended with great interest and pleasure the Tailor and Cutter Classes, and consider that I have gained very much useful information, and wish to thank you for the particularly patient and painstaking way in which you have explained it. I have made a garment for a child from measurements during the time I have attended the class, and it was in every way a success."

Miss M. P. B. writes : " Having finished my present course of tuition at your Academy, I wish, before leaving, to express my warm thanks to you for the careful and patient way in which I have been instructed. I consider your system a most thorough one, and shall only be too glad to resume my lessons again in a higher branch as soon as time and circumstances will permit "

Mr. A. C. G. writes : " In leaving your Academy, and taking with me a Diploma, I beg to express my sincere thanks for the courtesy, patience and excellence of tuition I have received from the teachers during my term of study. Your system of cutting gives me every satisfaction, and especially as regards cutting for abnormalities, Ac. One of the Special features of your course of tuition are the lectures to which I attach the highest value, because of the interesting and instructive matter they contain, the excellent business principles they impart, and of their high moral tone. Should an opportunity occur, I shall not fail to recommend your Academy with every confidence as a first-class institution for a young man to learn the Art of Cutting."

From G. S., Cambridge : " I consider it to be a matter of duty that I should write to let you know how I have been getting on since I left the Academy. The systems taught are almost perfection ; I have used them for 3 years and they fit splendid. I can safely recommend any young man who wants to learn cutting to go at once to the Tailor and Cutter School of Art, 93 & 94, Drury Lane, London, W.C.

Mr. G. W. W., Plymouth, writes : " Gentlemen,—I cannot leave this Academy without expressing my hearty thanks to the teachers for the attention and kindness that has been shown me during my stay. Also my entire satisfaction with the method of teaching, and the very instructive daily lectures. Everything has been done that could perfect me in the Art of Cutting, and it would have been my own fault if I had not got on well."

Mr. A. P., writes : " I thank you for the Diploma which I received quite safe ; and I wish to say that I feel quite satisfied with the instruction I received during my six weeks stay at your Academy."

Mr. R. K., writes : " I am almost three months in the situation I now hold, and I have not had a misfit, and never more alteration at a time than a button, or some trivial thing of that sort, since the start.—Your old student.

Mr. T. W. S. writes : " My Diploma duly to hand, for which accept my best thanks. I may also say I am finding the system to work first-class. The first coat I cut was for a man that could not get one to fit him about the shoulders, the one cut fits splendid. I have cut for stooping and disproportionate too, I find it to work first-class."

F. W. writes : "lam pleased to say we are full of orders, and since my return home—thanks to the valuable instruction received at the Academy—business has almost doubled."

F. E. W writes : "lam perfectly satisfied with the course of tuition I received at the Tailor and Cutter Office, and cannot sufficiently express my thanks for the great pains taken with me."

I have got on well since I was under your teachers. I am in the first situation over three years.—S. P.

W. C, Northampton, writes : " I must say the lessons I had at your office have been of immense service. It has reduced coat cutting to a pleasure. "

Mr. J. B. writes: "To day my course of study at your academy comes to a close, but before leaving, I desire to bear testimony to the kindness, patience, and ability of the teachers, and it is with a feeling of deep sincerity that I offer the teachers my best thanks.

I desire also to say how highly I appreciate the weekly lectures for the useful information they contain. And if I ever meet with anyone desirous of learning the cutting I shall certainly recommend them to the Tailor and Cutter office, 93 and 94, Dury Lane."

, The Citadel, Cairo, writes : " Sir,—I expect that your surprise will be great in hearing from me again through the hand of a friend, but an opportunity presented itself to me to send that friend to you as a pupil of our art, and being thoroughly satisfied after a large practice of two years with what you taught me, I have much pleasure in recommending him to you, as a man likely to do credit to whatever you might teach him, feeling sure that he will be as much satisfied with your systems and teachings as I have been myself. I especially commend him to you as a friend of mine, and as one in whom I take a great interest. Mr. Phillips (that is his name) is unfortunately not a practical tailor, but your long experience of teaching non-practical men will, I do not doubt, make as good a cutter of him as most practical men that Ihave come across.

Mr. G. C. writes : " I cannot leave without thanking you for the manner which you have attended to me during my stay here at th6 academy, and don't hesitate in recommending any intending to become cutters."

J. M. writes : " Gentlemen,—As what is usually termed a non-practical man, I am pleased to testify to the value of the instruction imparted at the School of Cutting at the Tailor and Cutter Office. I am in business for myself as a General Outfitter, and ten years since had some small practice as a cutter, but since that time have been in business where no bespoke work was done, until two years ago I took a business where a fair bespoke trade was done, and then determined to do my own cutting and save the expense of a cutter. Three weeks only at the Tailor and Cutter Academy was sufficient to enable me to do this with satisfaction to my customers and myself. I would also like to bear witness to the painstaking and courteous manner iu which the instruction is imparted.

Mr. T. T. T. writes : " Gentlemen,—To-day my course of tuition at your Academy comes to a close, but before leaving, I think it my earnest desire to bear testimony to the kindness patience, and ability of the teachers, and it is with a feeling of sincerity that I offer my beit thanks, I desire also to say that anyone having the ambition of learning the art of cutting I strongly recommend them to the Tailor and Cutter's offices, 93 and 94, Drury Lane."

F. H. P., Leicestershire, writes : " I have been here at your Academy six weeks, and many thanks to all concerned in the art of teaching cutting, I have found everything very pleasant and nice during my stay, and referring more especially to the lectures and debates I have heard which have been very interesting and instructive. The teachers I must say are ever ready and willing to tell and explain to the students anything they wish to know. As I always take the Tailor and Cutter journal in weekly and read the contents, I generally know how things are going on, and shall now ever think of the six weeks of learning the art of cutting, and the kind way towards me."

F. W. P. writes : " I have been four weeks a student at the Cutting School, and I am highly pleased with the attention paid to me ; and beg to thank the teachers for the instructions which have been so satisfactory to me."

S. A. and H. S. write : " We have been at your Cutting Academy for four weeks, and we are highly satisfied with the attention paid to us by the teachers. We have made excellent progress, and consider the arrangements first-class."
