- ARGOSY-ALLSTORY—ADVERTISING SECTION. The only man who soitid talk to the Superintendent OR several years, he was just like a score of other men in the plant—a good, honest, fairly capable worker, but only that. There was nothing distinctive about him or his ability ——nothing to make him stand out from the crowd—no reason, as a matter of fact, why he should ever receive a raise in salary. ‘Then one fortunate day he decided that the reason he wasn’t getting anywhere was because he lacked special training. He searched around a bit—asked a great many questions—and then enrolled for a home-study course with the International Correspondence Schools. “Soon. after I began studying,” he wrote to us the other day, “we had a change in man- agement at our plant. The new superintendent said that only men who had really studied their work were in line for positions as foremen. “T certainly was glad then that I had decided to study in my spare time. For, thanks to my I. C. S. course, I was the only man in the organization who could talk to the super- intendent in his own language. As a result, I was promoted over men who had been here from ten to twenty years. My salary has been increased 90% in the last ten months.” HAT’S a true story of what just one I. C. S. student has done. There are thousands of others. Every mail brings letters from men and women telling of promotions and increases in salary due directly to spare-time study. What are you doing with the hours after supper? Can you afford to Jet them slip by unimproved when you can easily make them mean so much? One hour a day, spent with the I. C. S. in the quiet of your own home, will prepare you for suc- cess in the work you like best. Yes, it willf Put it up to us to prove it.
