The area around Odessa offers the highest paid secretarial Jobs in the state, with some 500 oil and oil supply firms employing from one to fifty full-time secretaries, with salaries ranging from $200 to 4325 per month. The opportunities for accountants, bookkeepers and auditors in the Odessa area is unlimited, and they earn from 4350 to $450 per month. The Odessa area also employs approximately 30 business teachers. 1 The. high school graduate is often at a loss as to whether to take advantage of a business course in a private business college in Odessa or whether to study business administration for one or two years at the local junior college, either in preparation for a job or for additional education at another college or university. A great deal of time and money may be wasted if a potential student attends the school that does not fulfill his needs. In view of the above, the purpose of this study is to make comparisons between the two types of schools in an effort to determine the type of school most suited for each student, and to pave the way for improvements in business education in that area. These facts will be helpful in planning the future curriculum and expansion of Odessa College and the possible establishment of a business school in connection with Odessa College.</p>A Study of the Retail Trading Area of Denton, Texas2015-06-24T09:39:17-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc663829/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc663829/"><img alt="A Study of the Retail Trading Area of Denton, Texas" title="A Study of the Retail Trading Area of Denton, Texas" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc663829/small/"/></a></p><p>"The purpose of this study is to find what information is available from secondary sources on retail trade areas and to assemble and analyze it so that the information will be of value to those interested in the economy of the area...the following general conclusions are drawn: 1. The Denton retail trade area is primarily agricultual. Indicators of this fact are so many and so definite that there is little doubt but that agriculture and the rural population of the area will affect, to a considerable extent all business activity. 2. In 1947, the Denton retail trade area was not highly industrialized. The trading center is not centrally located within the state of Texas, but several markets are a few miles away. A good supply of labor is available within the area. With the present trend toward decentralization of industry, these facts point toward an expansion of manufacturing in the trade area. 3. In 1948, retailing in the trade center and in the area as a whole indicates a strong retail trade center. 4. The fact that the retail trade center would be a good sampling area for companies introducing new products is indicated by the youth of the population of the center. 5. A good market for fashion goods is revealed by the large population of females in the area. 6. In 1948, wholesaling in the area had doubled in number and tripled its sales in the past ten years, and with the trend toward decentralization of industry the wholesale trade of the area should continue to increase."-- leaves 1,63.</p>An Investigation into the Characteristics and Causes of Monthly and Yearly Price Fluctuations of Spot Cotton at New York, New York, During the Period, 1911-19532013-06-04T22:29:06-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc163838/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc163838/"><img alt="An Investigation into the Characteristics and Causes of Monthly and Yearly Price Fluctuations of Spot Cotton at New York, New York, During the Period, 1911-1953" title="An Investigation into the Characteristics and Causes of Monthly and Yearly Price Fluctuations of Spot Cotton at New York, New York, During the Period, 1911-1953" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc163838/small/"/></a></p><p>This study endeavors to give an insight into the causes and characteristics of price fluctuations of spot cotton at New York, N.Y., for the period 1911-1953, and to indicate whenever possible the factors which caused the price of cotton to rise or fall during selected periods.</p>Gift-wrapping Methods in Selected Department Stores in the North Texas Area2013-06-04T22:29:06-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc163818/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc163818/"><img alt="Gift-wrapping Methods in Selected Department Stores in the North Texas Area" title="Gift-wrapping Methods in Selected Department Stores in the North Texas Area" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc163818/small/"/></a></p><p>The study is limited to a survey of the gift-wrapping departments of selected stores in Dallas, Fort Worth, and Denton.</p>A Distributive Education Display Manual2013-06-04T22:29:06-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc163819/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc163819/"><img alt="A Distributive Education Display Manual" title="A Distributive Education Display Manual" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc163819/small/"/></a></p><p>The problem of this investigation is to prepare a merchandise display manual that can be used by the teacher-coordinator, students of distributive education, other trainees, training sponsors, and salespeople.</p>Salary Administration of College Faculties2012-12-27T22:03:54-06:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc130329/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc130329/"><img alt="Salary Administration of College Faculties" title="Salary Administration of College Faculties" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc130329/small/"/></a></p><p>The purpose of this thesis is to explore the salary levels of college faculty.</p>A Study to Determine Criteria for Predicting the Success of Less than "C" Average Transfer Students in North Texas State College.2012-12-27T22:03:54-06:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc130332/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc130332/"><img alt="A Study to Determine Criteria for Predicting the Success of Less than "C" Average Transfer Students in North Texas State College." title="A Study to Determine Criteria for Predicting the Success of Less than "C" Average Transfer Students in North Texas State College." src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc130332/small/"/></a></p><p>An important problem in the field of education is determining the criteria by which academic success of students can be predicted.
