This course deals with lay-out and construction of storage plants, receiving inspecting, storing, indexing, and shipping goods, out-of-door storage, and special current problems. A large portion of each day will be spent in field work.

2. Military Cost Inspection, to be given in co-operation with the executive committee of the Certified Public Accountants of Massachusetts, Inc., by competent accountants approved by the committee of that organization. There will be three classes daily.

This course aims to train men for cost inspection in factories which have contracts with the Government. Candidates for admission should have training and experience in accounting which shall include a thorough knowledge of double-entry bookkeeping.
