That's the point—"What d'ye KNOW?"
To-day it's a battle of wits—and brains win
Muscle and brawn don't count so much as they used to.
In the fight for good jobs anjl big salaries it's brains
—not brawn—that win. "What d'ye KNOW?" is the
one £reat question that draws the line between defeat
and victory between "wages" and "salary" between
you and the Boss.
What do YOU know? Are YOU so expert in some
line of work that you can "make good" as a foreman,
superintendent, or manager? If not, why don't you mark
and mail the attached coupon and permit the Interna
tional Correspondence Schools to show you how you
CAN "make good" on a big job ?
For 23 years the I. C. S. have been showing men how to
do better work and earn bigger salaries. Every month over 400
students write of promotions or salary increases through I. C.
S. training. What the I. C. S. are doing for these men they can
do for YOU.
No matter where you live, how old you are, what hours
you work, or how limited your education—if you can read and

STRUTTY GOBBLER, THIS GREEDY
A Thanksgiving Tale Without Any Feather*.
Once upon a time in Barnyard Village lived a great many
turkeys. There were Mamma Turkeys and Daddy Turkeys, and
little Baby Turkeys, all eating around the same ground table, and
drinking at the same tinpan fountain.
Now among these turkeys was one, Strutty Gobbler, lie was
so proud that he would scarcely look at the other turkeys and
chickens and ducks with whom he came in contact. He just
strutted and gobbled, and gobbled and strutted, up and down, up
and down, as close to the fence of the barnyard as possible, so
that his feathers and his gobble and ills strutt could be admired
by those earth folk who came to feed him and his friends of the
barnyard every day.
"Come away from that fence, Strutty," said his mother, a very
old and sensible turkey hen, one day. "It's never a good thing to
make one's self too conspicuous. Don't you want to live to a rlpo
old ager
"Why of course I do, mother dear," laughed Strutty. "Of course
I do, and I will too. Look at me, so big and strong and hearty!
Why shouldn't I live to a ripe old age?"
"My dear son," said his mother, "I have lived longer than you
have. I best know the world. If you want to live long and
happily In Barnyard Village you must not try to be seen too much.
It's a bad habit—this wanting admiration. A bad liablt, Indeed.
If you must try to show oft, then do It quietly here among your
own friends.—but don't show off to those bigger and higher up in
the world than you are."
"Nonsense!" answered Strutty. "These common ordinary hens
don't appreciate me! But I can see by the look in the eyes of those
tine men and women and children outside the fence, that they
think me a wonderful fellow. And the bigger and fatter and
healthier I look, the more they seem to admire me. The more 1
gobble and strutt, the more they smile. So 1 eat corn and lla In
the sun and sleep and try to keep as handsome as I can. Then
I strutt and gobble when I see them coming, and they smile urn!
look at me and look at each other and say, 'What a line bird!
What e* fine bird!'"

So no matter how much his mother pleaded and his aunts and
uncles talked, Strutty made It a point to show off whenever the
folk from the farmhouse, close at hand, came around. At last the
summer wa.s gone. Autumn came on with its falling leaves and
whispering breezes, each of which felt sorry for poor Strutty, and
tried to whisper, "Be careful Strutty. Keep in the background."
At lust one find day a few small snowflakes went skipping through
the air. "Ho careful, Strutty," they warned. "Thanksgiving Day
is close at hand!"
"And why should T be careful because Thanksgiving Day is
coming?" asked Strutty.
"Because Its a day the great folk may want you, Strutty dear,
and you will be shorn of your fine feathers und your strutt,"
ar. iwered all ol Mother Nature's children and his own mother and
.ather and uncles and aunts and cousins.
"Nonsense!" answered Strutty, who. by this time was so proud
of his fine looks and the admiration he had received from the
house folk, that thero was 110 room In his little body for good
common sense. "They may want me for their feast; they may even
want me to be at the head of their table—but they would never,
never deprive me of my feathers and my strutt. They think 1 am
too fine a bird for that!"
Alas for poor Strutty! Thanksgiving Day dawned on the barn
yard, much as other days had dawntd. But there was no proud
turkey gobbler there to gobble forth his welcome. There sat his
poor thin father and mothfiT and brothers and sisters, who had
grown thin worrying over him, while scattered around Barnyard
Village were the feathers of Strutty's dress, and the stilts of
Strutty's strutt!
As for Struttv himself?—ln a long dining room of a sunny farm
house were gathered a large family. On either side children and
little grandchildren smiled. l'"or there on the table, the most con
spicuous figure of all was Strutty—upside down, minus his feathers
and his gobble. He was fat and bulging with Indigestible filling.
But as the knife plunged Into his breastbone, there was no proud
gobble or flash of eye. Strutty had laid all that beside the hatchet
on the block In the barnyard where he had learned that "Pride
eoeth before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall."
