ECKERTY, Sept. g. Especial THE news of

the murder of John Bryant some FIVE or six

ly anxious about the next lesson. 1t will come
soon enough. Meanwhile, learn this one still
better. Study, read, write, practice, work
away. The oftener you copy the characters
the better you will understand the principles.
Obstacles melt away before an earnest worker.
Leave no lesson until you are certain that you
have mastered it, and can say yes" TO these
questions: Do you understand the principle?
Can you write the exercise correctly? Can you
write it in the required time? Can you read it
afterward? Have you written it at dictation?
Speed in shorthand is Of no consequence
unless what is written can be read afterward.
Legibility, or reliability, depends, in part,
upon the accurate forming of the characters.
To do this it is not necessary to write them
slowly. On the contrary, experienced stenog-
raphers produce the more perfect outlines with
The Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1868-1895, 1889-09-11

a somewhat rapid movement, just as an expe-
rienced penman executes the most graceful
curve by quick stroke, rather than by slowly
drawing it. The student should learn at the
outset to write the characters, rather than
draw them. Nevertheless, the beginner
needs time at first, and ought to form each
a number of times with care and delibera-
ton until the outline is firmly impressed
upon his mind before attempting to write it
quickly. Afterward write it rapidly, and con-
tinue doing so until it can be written both &C
curately and quickly. All beginners form the
characters too large, and are apt to place them
too far apart. A great saving of time and
consequent gain in speed will be the result in
the long run if the words are written both
begin acquiring this habit now. The letters
should be written thin, and very little shading
will be found sufficient to distinguish the heavy
strokes.
