Pitmanic Shorthand - A Complete Text-Book, on the American-Pitman System #233358

First. A very few of the principles constituting the system are introduced at a time, beginning with the most elementary. Second. For convenience in class work these principles are divided into lessons, each lesson consisting in the introduction of a very few new principles. Third. With the introduction of the principles in each lesson is given a most explicit and thorough explanation of their use. Fourth. Immediately following the explanation of the princi ples are a few carefully selected words illustrating the use of these principles. These words are given in both Longhand and Shorthand. Fifth. Following these illustrations in each lesson is a list of words to be written making use of the principles explained in the lesson. After the student has learned to form the outlines correctly, he should write these words over and over again until he is able to write them readily.
