DEMONSTRATION
BY EXPERT TYPIST
MISS FLORENCE {. WILSON or
NEW YORK GAVE TWO DEMON
sTRATioNs in TYPEWRITING
TODAY AT THE DAKOTA Rusl-
NESS COLLEGE.

Two demonstrations in typewriting
were given today at the Dakota Bust
ness college by Miss Florence e.
Wilson of New York, champion lady
typist. in the presence Of large audi
ences at both times. The first was
given this morning at II o'clock, last
ing one hour and the second this
afternoon at 9 o'clock.
Mr.. Hubbard of Indianapolis, rep-
resentative of the Underwood Type
writer Co.. was introduced by Prof.
F. Leland Watkins Of the Dakota
Business college, and in turn intro
duced Miss Wilson to her audience.
Mr.. Hubbard briefly told of the diff
ferent champion typists in the coun-
try who had won the national and in
ternational contests. The first wa
Miss Fritz who defended her title for
three years in succession and then
was surpassed by H. E. Blaisdell, the
present champion, who has held the
title for two consecutive years. Miss
Wilson was in that contest and wrote
Ill words a minute and is the cham
pion lady typist.
This morning she gave a number of
demonstrations which were all very
good considering the obstacles Under
which she worked. as her table did not
set evenly on the improvised platform
on which she sat. She is a very
clever younw woman, and one of her
demonstrations, In which she carried
on a conversation with Professor Wat
kins while writing a letter at the same
time, was quite out of the ordinary
and interesting in the audience.
Miss Wilson travels in company with
her mother and said she enjoyed her
work immensely, practicing on an av-
erage of about three or four hours a
day to maintain her speed and record.
Mr.. Hubbard was generous in invit-
ing criticism and passed around the
various samples of her work as she
finished. He explained that she used
a specially constructed Underwood
machine insofar as the bell and line
space bar were a trifle beyond the
sizes used on the regular stock ma
chimes. Miss Wilson made some good
records this morning, writing all the
way from III to 204 words in vari-
Gus one and two-minute demonstra-
tons.
A banquet will be given Miss Will
son and party this evening at 6
o'clock at the Gardner hotel. The
court reporters and the newspaper
men Of the city will be special guests.
