THE PROOF OF THE PUD-
DING is IN THE EATING

There is no question but that the
Byrne Shorthand is the greatest sys-
tenn in use today. 1t may be written
either with pencil or any typewrit-
er. 1t has over 10000 enthusiastic
writers; it holds the worlds record
for speed in a gwen length of time,
is the most simple, legitle and rapid
system in use, as is shown from the
following remarks by our students
who first studied other systems:
81 take pleasure in telling the pub
lie that the Byrne Shorthand is the
only system. | previously studied
P,tman 8 months, used it in actual
practice for four months; at the end
Of S weeks study of the Byrne | was
a better writer than | had ever been
with the Pitman."
Il have been a Sloan-Duployan Ste
nographer for IS years; | found the
system inadequate. | then took the
Gregg under Mr., Gregg of Chicago,
but found it illegible. | then took up
the Byrne which | consider the ste
biographical marvel of the age"
81 first studied Pitman Shorthand,
then took up the Byrne, and founi
The Byrne to be IS per cent shorter
and that it could be written at a much
higher rate of speed, and read like
print"
II studied Pitman four months,
gave it up in disgust; l then took up
PERRIN and studied it almost night
and day for 6 months, but was not
competent to hold a position. l then
took up the Byrne for three mo1ths
and find | can hold any kind OF 20,
tition."
81 graduated in Graham shorthand,
writing 100 words a minute after 9
months study. After studying the
Byrne S'mplif;ed, together with Byrne
Practical Bookkeeping, for 4 months,
| could write Byrnc much faster and
regard it superior to any other rvs
tenn"
II thoroughly mastered Ia sys-
tens, seven Of the most prominent
Pitman syst' ms, Gregg, Vhart;er,
Byrne, and four minor systems, end
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 sy3.
TENS"
u spent q months trying to learn
Pitman shorthand but ow ng to the
hundreds Of rules, hundreds of ex-
ceptions and thousands of word signs
| failed to become a good stenogra-
pher. After studying Eyrne in your
school two weeks, | had a more prac-
teal work ng knowledge OF short
hand than | did after q months
study of the Pitman."
after studying six different Pi,-
manic systems | was unable 10 hold
an ordinary office job, but with five
weeks study Of the Byrne went into
The District Court and did reporting
successfully, and was Apo nted reg
ular 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 a higher rate of speed,
which means better salary and pro-
motion? 1t does noc cost half as
much to complete a course in our
school as it does one Of the other sys-
TENS in other schools. We hold the
exclusive right 10 teach the Byrne N
this section"
