C. S. Courses during spare time. One letter gives the romance of a young man in California that began with little or no education; another tells the story of a high school graduate ln Maine that found himself,educated for everything but to make a living. Here are the heart-trobs of a fellow that toiled 12 hours a day and studied his Course as best he could; of a foremen or superintendent that enrolled because his ambition aimed at still bigger tilings. No matter where you live, how little spare time you have, or how brief your schooling, the I. C. S. can raise your salary. That statement is backed with 20 years of success and a record of 400 or more advancement letters received every month. I,- C. S. Courses have made draftsmen, foremen, and superintendents of shop hands; building contractors, architects, structural and concrete engineers of carpenters and masons; advertising men, window trimmers, chemists, illustrators, and designers of clerks; electrical, mechanical and steam engineers of laborers; mine inspectors, foremen, and mining engineers of mine workers; bridge engineers, surveyors and mappers, civil engineers, gas engineers, automobile runners and civil service employees of young men willing to use their spare time to mold a career. Suppose you were to increase your earnings only $20 a month— what a fine return that would be on your spare-time investment! Yet some have increased their earnings $250 a month. Mark and mail this coupon and you will receive free information how you can increase your earnings by spare-time study.
