quill pen was in use long before the
time OF St Isidore. and remains that
have been found indicate that even metal
pens were not unknown to the ancient
Romans.
Practically all Of the early literature
of the white races was preserved by the
monks. who used the qujlls St ThecIa
of Isauria is said to have written out
the entire Scriptures without blot or
a mistake and to have used one quill.
So firmly did the quill pen become i'm
bedded in the affections OF mankind that
the quills Of the gray goose still are
used in some OF the English courts
1t was not until toward the close of
the eighteenth century that experiments
were made in England, France and
America looking toward the manufac-
ture Of metal pens. An Interesting in
vention at such a time was the an
nounccment in 1909 by Joseph Bramah,
who fathcrcd the idea OF having nib

OF the complete quill His machine cut
quilts into separate nibs, which were fas-
tened on to handles Of metal, wood and
ivory.
The earliest record OF the manufac-
ture and sale of steel pers was in 1905,
by Mr.. Wise, in London. These pens
were barrel-shapcd and made as much
ike a quill as possible; but they were
inhexible and unsatisfactory, until in
1920 Joseph elliott. OF England, began
the manufacture Of a vastly improved
pen at greatly reduced prices. This pen,
with improvements and variations, is the
steel pen in use to-day. 1t is interesting
to note that the manufacture Of steel
pens in the United States did not begin
until 1860, and the steel used in most
II the factories is Imported from
Sweden, even to this day
Gold pens first were made in 1895 in
England, and in this country in 1885
First the points of the gold pens were
protected by diamonds and rubies, but
in 1880 it was discovered that iridium
could be used as advant,geously, espe,
cially if imbedded in the gold instead Of
soldered on, and would be far less ex-
pensive This principle is followed tc
the present time
The fountain pen of to-day, the mos
perfect Of writing implements, is the
| development OF the idea, expressed il
