Every wide-awake Commercial
College offers Gregg Shorthand and
these are the reasons:
l. Based on ordinary writing
with it's uniform start.
2. No compulsory shading.
3. Position writing abolished.
Easy to write.
5. Connective vowels.
6. Easy to read.
I. BreVity is secured bv the appli-
cation of natural PRINCIPLES.
8. Practically only one wav of
writing each word.
9. Angles are rare-curves prevail.
10. Easy to learn.

methods in almost every essential
feature. and its remarkable success
and rapid progress prove that it is
founded on sound principles.
