Did you Ever Stop to Think?
If you read this article through
thoughtfully you will, and if you are
young you will think twice.
Did you ever stop to think that you
db four things, just four and no more?
You think; you remember; you im
agine; - you act. When you learn to
think better, remember better, imagine
better or act better, you are increasing
your efficiency, and, therefore, your
income. You may feel that you are
very successful now, Suppose you are;
it isn't a question of what you know,
but of how beneficial a practical busi.
ness education will be to you in ad.
ditloa to what you already know. You
will agree winh us that to violate a
pant of the laws of business means
partial success, and to violate all the
laws means complete failure. You are
also aware that to observe all the laws
means complete success. Our aim is
tohelp you observe a higher per cent
of. the laws of success, and, therefore,
enable you to be nearer the maximum
success. The late Prof. James of
Harvard declares that the average man
only uses ten per cent of. his brain
power. Suppose you are twice as cap.
able as the average man? Even that
would mean you are only twenty per
cent of your maxlum possibilities.
The purpose of our course is to produce
a maxium of uroficiciency with a m ni.
mum effort. Did you ever stop to
think that eighty.five per cent of the
men pf this county are only earninm
$15 a week or lesr? That ninety two
per cent fail in business between the
ages of 40 and 50? That ninetyfive per
cent have no money at the age of 60?
We have been very successful in get.
ting men out of the eighty-five, the
ninety-two and the ninety five per cent
class. Why not let us help you? We
have been marvelously successful in
raising salaries, as is conclusively
proven by the letters in our catalog
from former students. The business
world wants thinkers and doers.
There's a famine of high priced men to.
day; there are thousands of men worth
a thousand dollars a year, but only a
few worth ten thousand a year. He
the latter kind of a man, you can if you
will. We know that a man is worth
only about $2.00 a day from the chin
down, selling muscle, but as high as a
hundred thousand dollars a year from
the chin up, selling brains. Be a chin
upper and sell the higher type of
brains; you can't afford to be a chin
downer; there's no room for such a
man in the high salaried class. Take
our thorough, practical courses of
Bookkeeping, Shorthand, Business Ad.
ministration & Finance and Tele
graphy, learn how to think, to remem
ber, to imagine ane act.
