Mr. Jarrett mentioned the various awards `for speed_ and accuracy thatwere given by `his Company and also told of the necessity of young people practising thoroughness in all work. While it was necessary to get `work out quickly for the busy bu-sines< man, Ill: was absolutely essential that the work _be. neat and accurate. No business man wants to pay. a stenographer to write letters that he does not want to sign on account of inaccuracy, errors in English and spelling. The stenographer who got work out quickly `most and business men were willing to pay a good salary to a good stenographor but that they did not want to `be bothered with the self-styled stenographer who had the idea that she could do the work but, un- a and accurately was the one who was worth ` fortunately, did not. measure up to standard- when given a trial. Mr. Jarrett urged the lstudents who were present to put forth ievery effort to take advantage of opportuni- Eties presented by the college to become well Iqualified. capable and accurate st.enogra- `[)l]el'S and typists_ l l.l_ `l..._..L-' " l....,..- uuu uJ luau`, Mr. Jnrr`et's remarks were followed by `a vocal solo by Miss Florence Arnold.

The key- board of the machine is divided into two halves so that each hand has a given part to take care of and each finger has its own key or keys to strike. It is difficult to! make the finger `strike the wrong key ifi the operator has been properly trained.` Each" finger has only three or `four keys to 3 strike and as we have eight fingem working in rhythm, speed follows with practice.
