800 Per Cent. Increase 



At the time of enrolling in the I. C. S. for the 

 Stationary Engineers' Course I had received 

 very little schooling anything beyond long 

 division was a mystery to me. When I sub- 

 scribed I sold my watch to make the first two 

 payments. My wages at that time were $8.75 

 a week. I am now engineer and selling agent 

 for the Westinghouse Company at an increase 

 in salary of 800 per cent. There is not the 

 slightest doubt that the I. C. S. Course was the 

 tidal wave that carried my little boat into a 

 port not dreamed of in the beginning. All 

 men have not the same kind of a boat, but they 

 have some kind of boat, nevertheless. It is 

 up to each individual which chart to use.
