Q. Fhe Intelligence Questionnaire is a Real Brain est El ISTORY proves that the ability to use his head i$ the only thing that has ever improved man's condition. Are you going to drag along, satisfied to "hide your light'v uner a bushel, or are you willing to let yourself be know as a person of some intelligence-the kind of man your em ployer will be anxious to promote? It isn't often you have a chance to test your mental ability in such a way that your name willbe known to the public if you win. And that winning carries with it more than public recognition of mental ability. A hundred substantial cash prizes are waiting for the win ners. They range from $1,000 down to $1.00. Sharpen your lead pencil, read the rules very carefully, and then go in to win. You O AN do it, if you will make up your mind to eliminate carelessness, look up the questions you are not sure of, answer as many as you possibly can, and study a while before you check the thirty questions called for in the rules.
