Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Self-Instructor's Manual of Short-Hand: A Labor-Saving Adaptations of the Isaac Pitman Phonography
The Corresponding Style has been ignored, because it accustoms the student to a disconnected and lengthy style of writing wholly incompatible with rapid work, which it is neces. Sary to unlearn before proficiency m the Reporting Style can be acquired. The Reporting Style is taken up at the beginning, and the exercises are so arranged that no word is given the student to write until all the principles contained in the proper formation of the outline have been presented; hence there can be no hesitancy in writing the word in actual reporting, because but one outline has ever been used to express it. By discarding the Corres ponding Style much time has been saved the student which can be employed to excellent advantage in practicing from dictation, and a speed of from eighty to one hundred words a minute attained in less than one-half the time required by the old method of instruction.
