each picture. Once YOU obtain the
all the earlier starters.
This isn't a race. Time has
nothing to do with it. 1t is just a
competition of cleverness. The
ones who solve the greatest num-
Der of puzzles correctly will be
awarded the prizes. THINK OF
ONE THOUSAND MAGNET
CENT PRIZES, AND YOU NOT
IN THE CONTEST. WHY NOT
WAKE UP TO THIS CHANCE?
Are they not worth more than
the little labor Of mind which is
required to solve the greatest
number of prizes correctly, the
number to complete the set, which
is 10?
1t may be that we have laid
too much emphasis in these col
umns upon the great value and
beauty of the leading prizes. Ger
tainlv, there is not a word to re
tract, for there were never more
magnificent rewards in a contest
of this kind than the handsome
prizes we are offering. It must be
understood that all the prizes in
our contest maintain the high
standards in their class, and will
be something to be proud OF after
winning.
The popular Proverb Books are
still going like Coney Island frank
furters, and many Of the contest
ants write us that they find them
most useful in solving some Of the
proverbs. All YOU have to do is
to have some idea of the proverb,
then turn to the little book. which
is alphabetically arranged, and
there YOU have your answer right
before your eyes. What more
could you want in contest Of this
kind? The contestant who has one
of these books knows that some
where within the back and front
cover is the solution to each of
the puzzles in our contest, and this
in itself gives confidence and en-
enlargement.
The new contestants will find
them great aid in facilitating the
solution of the back numbers. OF
course, we have some idea of the
puzzle picture, and if we have
something to make us sure. we will
have no trouble in winning one of
the prizes.
OF course, it is the best plan to
start before the very verge Of the
end of the contest is reached. You
will want to give careful thought
to some of the pictures, and should
allow yourself plenty of time.
All things considered. there
couldn't be better time to start
than this very day to begin your
march toward one of the high
standard prizes of our contest.
Read over the list of prizes care
fully and see for yourself whether
or not you want to try for one Of
them. OF course, YOU will want
the $1,000 in cash, and if you do
not win this why not try for some
Of the other prizes?
Do not put it off any longer.
Start TODAY, and the goal will not
ocop, for AWAY

A Problem Every School
Teacher MuSt Solve

pro1~---the salary quesUEgzl.t
Why is it that such a small par
cent of teachers engaged in the
public schools have not been in
the work more than three years:
They like the work; it's an
honorable work, yet they dis
continue it. The trouble is all
in the salary question. After a
teacher has struggled along
through a term Of school, theL
into summer normal at a heavy
expense, he finds himself ready
to go into school in the fall pen
niless. This same thing is re-
peated another year, and by that
time he comes to reslize lie must
solve the salary question, and he
does it BY getting into some other
business. Hundreds have come
to Us and prepared themselves
for the business Office, and We
have yet to hear ola single regret.
We have many solicited letters
from former teachers, thanking
usfor giving them the opportunity
Of securing a practical education
and then placing them ina position
where they could earn more than
mere living; where they could
buy them a home, and lay up
something for old age. Where
is the public school teacher who
has been in the work fifteen years
who has saved enough money out
OF his teaching to buy him a
respectable home, and make in
vestments that will protect him
and his family in old age? They
are the exception.
We have the business training
school in America. We have en-
rolled students from 50 different
states and six foreign countries.
We have placed our graduates il
almost every state in the Union.
We own and control the copy
rights of the famous Byrne
Simplified Shorthand ana Prac-
tical Bookkeeping, which enables
US to give a far more thorough
course, less expense than schools
teaching other systems. Large
business firms have learned of
the efficiency of our graduates,
which makes it easy for US to
place them in the very best
salaried positions.
