It may be true, but why are you busy? It is largely because you wish to make the future secure for yourself and your family. But the John Hancock agent wishes to do the same thing for you. He does not come to add to your troubles but to lessen them. He has for his commodity the security of your future. Perhaps the next John Hancock agent who calls on you can answer some of your problems. He has the training and deals in policies to fit the needs of yourself and your busi ness. W hy N ot See H im ?

Just one ounce of extra power would have won the game. But the team lacked just that—that little ounce of extra power. Every business office has dozens of men competent to do their routine work well, who can become sub-executives or assistant managers. But there are only one or t wo men w h o— cither thru years of experience, or else by carefully directed, intelligent study— know the ins and outs of their business, know it in all its departments. These are the men with the vital extra power t h at carries them over the line into the higher positions, and into the firm when the open ings come. • • • • For years the Alexander Hamilton In stitute has specialized in the single task of training men for the higher executive posi tions in business, of giving thac "ounce of extra power" that makes all the difference between mediocre success and the really big things of life. Into the Course have been built the experience and mechods which have made many of today's business leaders pre-eminent. them N ot for one moment do we claim that we have any magic formula for success. But we do make it possible for you to gain in a few months' study what it would take you years to gain thru experience. The Course is not a substitute for hard work or common sense. We don't take credit for the fine work done by our graduates any more than Yale and Princeton and Harvard take credit for the success of theirs. We simply give men the facts they need to gain the extra power. If they are big enough to use these facts, they succeed. If they aren't—they would have failed anyway. The Course and Service is arranged and conducted in accordance with University practice and ideals. Like the University, the Institute urges no man to accept its help; but, seeking the widest possible field of ser vice, it offers information freely. A booklet has been prepared that gives all the facts about the Institute. More than 100,000 college graduates, n ow in business and the professions, have read it. It answers questions that have doubtless been in your mind. It indicates definitely how this train ing can be useful to you in the work you are doing, or would like to do. If you would care to have a copy, write us. A L E X A N D ER H A J / ' L T ON I N S T I T U TI 661 Astor Place New York City DAD THESE are wonderful days f or D a d s.

Every advance in electrical development, every decrease in the cost of electricity, means less burden on his shoulders, more pay, and more produc tion from his effort.
