Salary Increased 500 

 Per Cent. 



I was employed as a farm hand at $15 a 

 month when I enrolled with the Schools for 

 the Stationary Engineers' Course. This en- 

 abled me to become an engineer for the Booth- 

 Kelly Lumber Company, increasing my salary 

 $50 a month. I studied your volumes on elec- 

 tricity, of which I had no previous knowledge, 

 and they enabled me to erect about 75 miles 

 of telephone lines and to install a central office. 

 I am now doing construction work for the 

 Oregon Power Company of this place, at a 

 salary 500 per cent, larger than what I re< ^ 

 at the time of enrolment.
