HOW TO GET RICH
| Getting rich is a simple matter if one goes about it right. If you will deposit one penny in the bank on the first day of the month and double each deposit each day thereafter, until the end of the month (30 days), you will find yourself rich beyond the dreams of avarice. Thus:— | Society Hint: Even if you can't get into "Who's who in America," you can get into the Telephone Book, and it costs lots more. |
