EARNINGS INCREASED 10 TIMES 



Every step in the career of G. A. COLLINS, Box 144, 

 Seattle, Wash., has been upward. He was working as a 

 chainman for $30 a month when he enrolled for the I.C.S. 

 Railroad Engineering Course. . Since then he has held 

 numerous positions, such as locating engineer, bridge 

 engineer, and chief engineer. After serving on the Wash- 

 ington State Railway Commission he became irrigation 

 engineer for the Kilbourne & Clark Company, and is now 

 a civil and mining engineer, engaged in consultation 

 work and examination of properties. His earnings have 

 increased about 10 times since he enrolled with the I.C.S. 



NO LONGER COMPETES WITH THE MULE 



O. T. REECE, Oxford, Kans., when 48 years old, found 

 himself working in a railroad bridge gang, competing 

 with the mule and the steam engine. He enrolled for a 

 Course in Railroad Engineering, and afterwards for the 

 Civil Engineering Course. He has been appointed by 

 the court on the Board of Commissioners of the Drainage 

 Department, and he also enjoys a fine private practice as 

 an engineer, with a field of work constantly widening. 

 His income has been increased more than 500 per cent. 



DOUBLED HIS EARNINGS 



C. J. COOK, Deposit, N. Y., had received only a high- 

 school education and was working as signal man in a 

 railroad tower at $40 a month, when he enrolled for the 

 Civil Engineering Course. This enabled him to take up 

 civil engineering and to become superintendent of con- 

 struction on a state highway job. He is now consulting 

 civil engineer, earning twice what he did at the time of 

 enrolment. 



250 PER CENT. LARGER 



ROLLO KEESLER, 147 VV. 17th St., Anderson, Ind., was 

 working as a draftsman at the time he enrolled for the 

 Civil Engineering Course. This enabled him to enter 

 the engineering department of the Union Traction Com- 

 pany, where he is now office engineer in the roadway 

 department. His salary has increased 250 per cent. 



NOW SUPERINTENDENT 



When F. B. HAYES, superintendent of the Pendleton 

 City, Ore., water commission, enrolled with the I.C.S. for 

 the Civil Engineering Course, he was employed as a 

 clerk. Although he had received only a common-school 

 education, he was able to master his Course and to under- 

 take the construction of a $200,000 gravity system water- 

 works. His salary, of course, has been increased, being 

 now about double what he received at the time of enrol- 

 ment.
