Excerpt from Pitman Shorthand; The World Record System: The World Record Course Makes Pitman Shortland the Easiest to Understand, the Easiest to Learn, the Easiest to Write, and the Easiest to Read; Punctuation, English, Dictation, Business Correspondence and Spelling, Court Reporting
The greatest speed and accuracy records writing and reading shorthand throughout all time have been made by Pitman writers, - proving conclusively that the Pitman System gives to the writer greater speed capacity and greater accuracy in reading than any other System in existence.
It follows therefore, that just as the Pitman System gives to the most expert writers greater speed and accuracy than any other system, it gives to the novice, or the average shorthand writer greater speed and accuracy than he could develop with any other system.
Therefore, knowing as we do that one hundred words a minute is about the average speed attained by most stenographers, and that it is necessary to be able to write about one hundred words a minute to hold an average stenographic position, we can readily understand why more than eighty-five percent of the stenographers employed by the Government and in every Department of Commercial and Professional Service are Pitman Writers.
The United States Government employs 1579 Stenographers in the nine departments at Washington and 1356 of them are Pitman Writers, - more than 85%.
The World's Best Record learning Pitman Shorthand was made by students of this "World Record Course."
