ACCOUNTANT STUDENTS
At the annual meeting of the Wellington Accountant Students' Society, which was held recently, the president, Mr. H. L. Wise, in moving the adoption of the annual report and accounts, referred to the attempts of the committee to introduce lectures during the past session which would suit all members of the society. Several members made suggestions for a programme for the coming year, particularly with regard to activity in public speaking and debating.
Mr. Wise then gave an address on the promising outlook in the future for highly-trained men in the accountancy profession. He stressed the need of specialised training for the indiyidual, particularly in view of the Dominion's increasing industry and the trend towards self-sufficiency.
