President Willard yesterday, that am
having my boy taught it, and by the

lad Is Sophomore at Yale, and per-
haps above the age at which the study
of stenography is usually begun, 1 am
anxious that he shall become proficient
in this work. and am giving him every
encouragement to keep at the study
until he has mastered 1t. 1t pleases
me to say that the lad has entered into
its study with as much earnestness as
