A trope of the Golden Age was to give readers advice on how to improve themselves. The Superman books, for example, had tips on how to increase one's strength. But if it's speed you're after, then you have to go to the Flash!
Thanks, Jay Garrick!

Now of course, Jay actually developed HIS speed by sniffing heavy water fumes, but the readers get no shortcuts. Except the proper application of physics, that helps. How many kids became track stars on the back of this one-page feature, I wonder? All they needed was that Flash Comics edge!
