! Of great commentator for having
/ completed this course, and we are in
/ formed that he has, (let it be to his
credit) earned the money to thus ed
ucate himself by doing stenographic
work. Surely stenography, with eth
/ er young men or women, acts as a
stepping stone to the finishing of ed
ucationa work, as well as to higher
and more lucrative. responsible po-
sitions. No wonder President Wood

typewriting to the young people OF
this country, he, himself, being q
