That is *lie question asked by the employer of to-dav.
How much salary are you worth—What can you do to
earn ir V If you can do one thing well you are in demand
all the time, and are worth from four to ten times as much
as the man of no special ability.
The International Correspondence Schools were founded
and Five Million Dollars have been invested to help men
of no special ability; men who had to leave school early;
men who are earning but little and who are struggling
against adversity in uncongenial positions.
The 1. C. S. does this great work by mail at an expense so
small anyone can afford it—the worker neither leaving
home nor losing time. One spare hour each day will do
it. So wonderful has been the success of this system that
a partial record just completed shows the names and ad
dresses of 54,000 students who have actually been bene
fited by the I. C. S.
Every Plan and woman who can read and write is eligible.
To learn how easily and quickly you .an be helped, indi
cate to us the kind of position you would like.
In return you will receive without cost or obligation, litera
ture, information and personal advice of the most helpful
character. Isn’t, such a promise from such an Institution
worthy of investigation?
