SHORTHAND WRITER'S,
The Kind of Persons Who Are Wanted
In Business Offices.

In Business Offices.
Young people who intend to learn
shorthand and type-writing may prof
itably reflect upon remark made the
other day by New York business
man who has employed shorthand
writers for many years. and keeps sew
eral girls busy at the typewriter. 1t
is so easy nowadays to learn shorthand
In our large cities, that a large num-
Der OF young men and young women
are looking to that art, and to its as
sistant, the typewriter. as a means of
earning their subsistence. Ingenious
teachers have learned just how to help
their pupils over the difficulties, and to
get them quickly able to take down"
vast number of words in minute.
But, according to our New Yorker,
the kind of person who is wanted in a
business Office is not one who can
merely take down two hundred words
In a minute, and then write them ont
with corresponding rapidity by the
machine. He declares that he has
tried several nice girls in his office
who could write well enough and fast
enough, and yet were absolutely
worthless to busy man. He re-
ceives, for example, a note asking
favor. He writes upon the note, in
pencil polite no." He wants his clerk
to write an answer refusing the favor
in a gentle, conciliatory manner, ac-
cording to the nature of the request,
and the character, standing and sex OF
the applicant. This requires judg.
ment and some little knowledge of the
world. 1t is simple matter, but many
shorthand writers are unable to &C.
complish it. On another note, asking
an interview, the employer writes:
Eyes, tomorrow at half-past two;
here Our New Yorker asserts that lie
has had applicants highly recommend.
ed. who could not, unaided. write ac-
ceptably the note required by this di-
rection. Such things demand certain
amount of tact, taste, knack, "gump-
tion.' which many rapid writer's do
not possess, and perhaps could never
acquire.
In truth, business men scarcely ex-
pect young shorthand writers to write
any thing of Importance without dicta-
ton But here, again, if we may trust
our new Yorker, large proportion OF
young girls are incompetent He says
girl is of little use to him unless she
can spell Buenos Ayres or Seringapa-
tum without stopping to look it up in
the office gazetteer. He also wishes,
not merely that she shall be able to
spell Cicero without an s, but that she
shall have some little idea whether a
man, little girl or piece of crockery
is meant by the word. He goes so far
as to say that skill in the use of short
hand and the typewriter counts for
nothing, and less than nothing, unless
that skill is supplemented by general
knowledge of men and things, which
an intelligent mind can not help ac-
qui.ing, but which some good and re-
spectacle people never acquire. He
sums it all up in a short. inn
patient sentence: Il want writer that
knows something. Youths Compau-
