In many branches of knowledge a person may
neglect many details and not encounter any 21 __________________________________________
serious trouble in the further progress of
the study, but in shorthand it is very 22 __________________________________________
different. Here, is allowed no time for 23 __________________________________________
reflection. No chance is given to recall things
only vaguely learned. 24 __________________________________________

A good phonographic phrase simply groups
23 __________________________________________
upon paper, words already grouped by the
mind and tongue. – David Wolfe Brown 24 __________________________________________
25 __________________________________________
A good phonographic phrase is easy to write
and pleasant to read. It brings the words 26 __________________________________________
harmoniously together like the members of a
27 __________________________________________
happy family; and to see them in such loving
juxtaposition gives one a certain sense of 28 __________________________________________
satisfaction and pleasure. – Thomas Allen

Phonography supplies the want we have
shown to exist, by presenting a system of 18 __________________________________________
alphabetic writing capable of being written
19 __________________________________________
with the speed of the most rapid distinct
articulation and of being read with the 20 __________________________________________
certainty and ease of ordinary longhand.

Anything thoroughly understood as a
complete whole is never entirely forgotten. 23 __________________________________________
But that stage in which it becomes firmly
24 __________________________________________
fixed in mind can be reached only by
constant and persistent practice, no day 25 __________________________________________
being allowed to pass without having made
some advancement. By so doing there is no 26 __________________________________________

The mind must be trained to think,
believe, demand success. Whoever heard 19 __________________________________________
of an individual accomplishing anything he
undertook while constantly harping of 20 __________________________________________
failure? ... It is fatal to entertain such 21 __________________________________________
discouraging thoughts for a moment, for
you must compel success by determined 22 __________________________________________
optimism.

Another cause of hesitation and indecision in
writing is that of a too limited vocabulary ... 23 __________________________________________
If the word were known, the ear would catch
it easily, and a reference to the context 24 __________________________________________
would determine by its appropriateness 25 __________________________________________
whether that was the word heard or not.
The student who possesses a good knowledge 26 __________________________________________
of English is favoured with one of the
27 __________________________________________
biggest advantages in the stenographic race
... The number of stenographic word-friends 28 __________________________________________
should always be on the increase until he
29 __________________________________________
must go afield to meet a word-stranger.

For any given word, the writer should
choose that form which is most easily and 20 __________________________________________
rapidly written, and is at the same time
21 __________________________________________
distinct. The briefest outline to the eye
is not necessarily the most expeditious to 22 __________________________________________
the hand. The student will insensibly
acquire a knowledge of the best forms by 23 __________________________________________
practice and observation. 24 __________________________________________
