You, Too, May become a Foreman, a Superintendent, or Even a Works Manager As So Many Done

Perhaps you wonder how men—no different from you—get such desirable jobs as these.

Well—ask yourself this question:

"Much as I'd like that job just ahead of me, could I handle it? Am I well enough trained? Could I analyze the factory work—keep production up to schedule—help reduce costs—handle the other men—break in new help...?"

Perhaps you could. But chances are that the honest answer is: "You're not properly trained and qualified—yet."

"But" you say, "what am I supposed to do about it? I don't claim to be an expert but I'm learning—learning on the job as I go. Isn't that enough?"

Well—frankly, it isn't enough. To get that job you want, to get that bigger salary—you'll have to train yourself—at least, if you want to get ahead in a reasonable time.

Yet. if you have ambition enough to study for a few months, you can get the exact training you need—easily—the LaSalle way.

Take a foreman's job, for example: He's a much more important man today than he was even a few years ago. Management depends on him. But he must be good. Nor will old methods do. His ideas must be new—as new as the machines he supervises—as young as the young men he must direct and handle.

How can a fellow learn all that? How can you learn it? There's a way—the proved LaSalle way. By means of it you can learn to solve just such problems—to cut costs—reduce inefficiency—handle new work, new men and new machines in new ways.

Or, take a supervisor's job—or perhaps a works manager's job. If you're already a foreman, what are you doing to fit yourself for their jobs? Routine effort—even hard conscientious work—may not be enough! They seldom are.

But just as an ordinary industrial worker can, through LaSalle Home Study, become a foreman, so a foreman, a cost clerk, a cost accountant, a mechanical engineer, a department manager, an inspector, an assistant superintendent, and all the other minor executives of any industrial organization—can fit themselves for that desirable job ahead—with its tremendously desirable rewards!

Does all this sound too good to be true? If it does, we'll make you proposition—we'll ask you to gamble a one-cent post card against the proof of our statements—proof that has built this institution over a year period and scattered our members through nearly a million positions in all countries of the world.

Yes, it will cost you exactly one cent—or three cents if you fill out the coupon and mail it—to obtain a copy of either of the two fascinating books offered below.

Get one of these books today! Plan your future, investigate the proven possibilities of LaSalle training in Modern Foremanship or Modern Industrial Management.
