Never Mind Huw 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 28 years the I. C. 8. have been showing men how to
do better work and earn bigger salaries. Every month over 400
students write of promotions or salary lnoreases throunh L C.
B. training. What the L C. 8. are doing for these men ther can
do for YOU.
No matter where you live, how old you are. what hours
rou work, or how limited your education—if you can read and
write and ar® ambitious to learn the L C. & can train you In
your own Ume, during your spare Ume, for a more important
and better-paying position.
Mark and mall the attached coupon —!t won't ohttn»>
you in the leaat—and the I. C. S. will show you how you cai!

methods.
