Holds Exclusive Right
to Teach Isaac Pitman
Shorthand Method

For the first time in the history Of
business institutions in Washington
students have been given the oppor-
tunity to study the Isaac Pitman sys-
tenn OF shorthand. This system is
taguht in the schools of over sixty
cities in the United States and is used
by more reporters and high-class ste
nographers than any other shorthand
in the English speaking world. For
ten years writers of Issac Pitman
shorthand have held the worlds rec
ords in speed and accuracy, and the
present record of 27s words a minute is
held by an Isaac Pitman writer In
keeping with the policy of the Milton
School to give their students the ben
eft of the very best and most advanced
educational advantages, the manage
ment has secured the exclusive right
to teach Isaac Pitman shorthand in
the District of Columbia. The re-
suits obtained during the last year ex-
ceeded all expectations. The scien-
tific text books and finely engraved
shorthand exercises available to the
students make the presentation OF the
subject very simple, while the large
number OF literary works in engraved
shorthand accessible to the students
gives them an opportunity not only to
become well grounded in the principles
OF shorthand but to broaden their gen.
eral education by reading. There are

Lake School Gives
Individual instruction

A complete course in shorthand
and typewriting is offered by the
Lake School. whose regular classes
are under way this week. A spe-
cialty of the curriculum is the prep
aration of pupils in short time.
Unlike some schools which adopt
the class instruction methods, the
instruction at Lake School is per-
sonal and individual.
Under this plan the faculty plans
to have students graduated with
general knowledge of the branches
taught. In proof of its claim of
producing highly trained stenogra-
piers and typewriter operators the
school points to the large number
Of its graduates who are holding
positions of trust in Washington
business houses.
