Byrne Simplified Shorthand is the
greatest system in use today. 1t has
over $4,000 enthusiastic writer's; it
holds the worlds record for speed in a
given length of time, is the most
simple, legible and rapid system in use
as is shown from the following remarks
by our students who first studied other
systems.
Il take pleasure in telling the public
that the Byrne Simplified Shorthand is
the only sytem. | previously studied
Pitman 8 months, used it in actual
practice for four months; at the end OF
weeks study of the Byrne / was a
better writer than ! had ever been
with the Pitman."
II have been a Sloan.Duployan
stenographer for is years; found the
system inadequate. / then took tine
Gregg under Mr.. Gregg of Chicago,
but found it illegibile. / then took up
the Byrne which consider the steno'
graphic marvel of the age"
II first studied Pitman Shorthand,
then took up Byrne, and found Byrne
to be 80 per cent shorter and that it
could be written at a much higher rate
of speed, and read like print"
81 studied Pitman 4 months, gave it
UP in disgust; ! then took up Pernin
and studied it almost night and day
for s months, but was not competent
to hold position. ] then took up the
Byrne for three months and find can
hold any kind of position"
II graduated in Graham Shorthand,
writing 100 words a minute after Q
months study. After studying the
Byrne Simplifled together with Byrne
Practical Bookkeeping, for 4 months,
| could write Byrne much faster and
regard it superior to any other syS.
| tenn"
II thoroughly mastered IA systems,
seven of the most prominent Pitman
systems. Gregg, Charter, Bvrne, and
| four minor systems, and find the Byrne
much easier to read, that it can be
written with one and one.half times
the speed that can be made with any
of the other Is systems"
Il spent q months trying to learn
Pitman Shorthand. but owing to the
hundreds of rules, hundreds of excep.
tons and thousands of word signs,
failed to become good stenographer.
After studying Byrne in your school
two weeks. | had a more practical
working knowledge of shorthand than
did after n months study of the
| Pittnan,"
| after studying six different Pit
manic systems was unable to hold ar
ordinary Office job, but with five weeks
study of the Byrne | went into the
District Court and did reporting sue
cessfully, and was appointed regular
Court Stenographer."
why study any system of short
hand other than the Byrne, when the
Byrne can be learned in half the time
or less, read with greater ease and
written at higher rate of speed which
means better salary and promotions
+ 1t does not cost half as much to COM
plete course in our school as it does
one of the other systems in other
schools. We hold the exclusive right
j to teach the Byrne in this section.

Endorsements and names and addresses

tried the other systems and abandoned
them for the Byrne. Our Bookkeeping
and Telegraphy are as far superior to
the other systems as is the Byrne
Shorthand. Don't fail to write or
