Never Mind Strong Yeu Are—
What d'ye Know?
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 and big salaries it's brains
—not brawn—that win "What d'ye KNOW?" is the
one great 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. 6. 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.
8. training:. What the I. C. S. are doing for these men they can
do for TOU.
No matter where you live, how old you are, what hours
you work, or how limited your education—if you can read and
write and are ambitious to learn the I. C. 8. can train you In
your own Ume, during your spare time, for a more important
and better-paying position.
Mark and mail the attached coupon—lt won't obligate
you in the least—and the I. C. S. will show vou how you can
acquire this salary-raising ability by their ilmple and ea*r
methods.
It will cost you nothing to InvesUgate—it may cost a life
time of remorse if you don't Mark and Mall the Counon
NOW.
