the one between Shellman and Bron-

Lanier for Shellman, he making 10
Bronwood batsmen bite the dust; the
batting of Ware, he getting three
two-base hits in four times up; the
excellent support of the outtielders,
and, in fact, the playing of the whole
Shellman team; and the triple play
of Stapleton to Waller for Bronwood.
A large crowd witnessed the game

Prof. N. E. W. Stokeley, Ackworth,
Ga. My Dear Professor: 1t gives
me pleasure to recommend the Elec-
trio System of Shorthand to any one
who contemplates taking a course
with you. l studied under you in
1906 and completed my course in
two months, and went to work imme-
diately at an increased salary.
have found that the Electric System
is equal to all emergencies. In fact,
l have never had the slightest trouble
in reading my notes, and have held
positions where the graduates in 9TH
er systems have failed. In 1907
entered the United States navy to do
stenographic and other clerical work,
and during my four years service in
the navy | reported in the neighbOr-
hood of thirty-five general courts
martial, each averaging two hundred
typewriter pages of testimony, and
can truthfully say that my knowl-
edge of Electric Shorthand made me
the only man on the ship that could
do the work. 1t is easy to learn and
hard to forget, and l would advise
any prospective student to study
Electric in preference to any other
system. Sincerely yours,
D. H. PENDLEY.
