Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Typewriting, by the All-Finger Method, Which Leads to Operation by Touch: Arranged for Self-Instruction and School Use It is gratifying to an author to write under the. Above caption. We are not insen sible to the situation, and cordially thank typewriters everywhere for making the event possible. There are fifty makes of writing machines to-day Where there was one in 1873. Method in typewriting has likewise gained currency, and the writer by accident hesitates to make himself known. A speed of two hundred words a minute shows what the machine is 'capable of, and the fact that this was attained by use of all the fingers puts to rest all doubt of the efficiency of that style of procedure. The Bureau of Education states that from July 1, 1889, to June 30, 1891, over sixty thousand persons were taught shorthand in the United States, and it is presumed a large proportion of that number studied typewriting. These are the statistics for about two years. It is a suggestive record. The widespread. Use of shorthand in business has made necessary the introduction of a vast number of writing machines, which accounts for the enormous demand for both stenographers and typewriters. The machine has also extended in many other directions, and the movement has not yet reached a limit. We can all be prophets, or the future may be judged by the past.
