L.B. Practice outfits in use in the Winchell
Continuation School, Chicago, Illinois

20 classes a week fascinated in learning filing by the new L. B. Practice method

Mrs. Fiscus, instructor in filing at the Winchell Continuation School, Chicago, Illinois, has 20 different classes each week with 20 to 25 pupils in each class. Over 400 pupils in her filing classes!

How to teach these classes most effectively-that was the problem. Mrs. Fiscus investigated all methods and then selected the L.B. Practice method.

Each L. B. Practice outfit is a complete miniature filing system. With it each student files and finds correspondence just as she would in a modern office. Already over 400 schools are using L. B. Practice outfits and proclaiming them highly successful.

The coupon below will bring you a free copy of the booklet "Making filing fascinating to teacher and pupil." It tells you what you, too, can easily accomplish-by the new L.B. Practice method of teaching filing.

the secret of 15 minutes a day?

The secret is contained in the free book offered below. Until you have read it you have no
idea how much 15 minutes a day can mean in growth and success.

HERE are two men, equally good looking,

equally well dressed. You see such men at every social gathering. One of them can talk of nothing beyond the mere day's news. The other brings to every subject a wealth of side light and illustration that makes him listened to eagerly.

He talks like a man who has traveled widely, though his only travels are a business man's trips. He knows something of history and biography, of the work of great scientists, and the writings of philosophers, poets, and dramatists.

Yet he is busy, as all men are, in the affairs of every day. How has he found time to acquire so rich a mental background? When there is such a multitude of books to read, how can any man be well read?

The booklet gives the plan, scope, and purpose of
Dr. Eliot's

Five-Foot Shelf of Books

The Fascinating Path to a Liberal Education
Every well-informed man and woman should
at least know something about this famous library.
The free book tells about it-how Dr. Eliot has
put into his Five-Foot Shelf (The Harvard Clas-
sics) "the essentials of a liberal education," how
he has so arranged it that even "fifteen minutes
a day" are enough, how in pleasant moments of
spare time, by using the reading courses Dr. Eliot
has provided for you, you can get the knowledge
of literature and life, the culture, the broad view-
point that every university strives to
give.

The answer to this man's success-and to the
success of thousands of men and women like him-
is contained in a free book that you
may have for the asking. In it is told
the story of Dr. Eliot's great discovery,
which, as one man expressed it, "does
for reading what the invention of the
did for communication."

From his lifetime of reading, study, and
teaching, forty years of it as President
of Harvard University, Dr. Eliot tells
just what books he chose for the most
famous library in the world; why he
chose them, and how he has arranged
them with notes and reading courses
so that any man can get from them the

Tuberculosis might strike

your home today

T

HERE is no precaution too

great for you to take to protect your home and family from tuberculosis. Your children are constantly exposed to tuberculosis germs. The one effective protection against tuberculosis is the organized, co-operative campaign to stamp out the disease. It can be stamped out. Only half as many people die from tuberculosis today as died ten years ago. The organized battle against tuberculosis, carried on by the Tuberculosis Associations, has helped to save the other half.

Tuberculosis Associations are financed by the annual sale of Christmas Seals. One tangible, sure way to protect yourself and your family against tuberculosis is to buy Christmas Seals.

Buy Christmas Seals. Buy as many as you can. Seal every letter, Christmas card, and Christmas parcel with Christmas Seals.
