Never Mind How 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. 8. have been showing men hew to
<0 better work and earn bigger ealarlee. Every month over 40#
■tudenta write of promotion! or ealary increases through I. CL
B. training. What the I. C. 8. are doing for these men they
do for TOU.
No matter where you live, how old you are, what hours
rou work, or how limited your education—lf you can read and
write and are ambitious to learn the L C. & can train you in
your own during your spare time, for a more Important
and better-paving position.
Mark and mail the attached coupon—it won't obligate
you In the least—and the I. C. 8. will show you how you can
acquire this salary-raising ability by their : imple and easy
methods.
It will cost you nothing to Investigate—lt may cost a Ufe
dme of remorse if you 4oa't Mark and Mali the Coueoa
NOW.
