WILSON SPEARS.
After a three months’ course of Chartier Shorthand at Bagwell Business College, Young Wilson Spears, just fifteen years of age, takes legal dictation at
an average speed of more than 100 words per minute with perfect ease and accuracy. The fol
lowing is a letter just received from his employer:
Brunswick, Ga., March 16, 1908.
Mr. J. O. Bagwell, President Bagwell Business College, Atlanta, Ga.
My Dear Sir: I have your Inquiry as to the work of my stenog
rapher, Mr. Wilson Spears, who is a graduate of your college, and in
reply beg to say that his services are very satisfactory indeed. During
the time he has been with me, his work has been of the highest order,
and I think I am peculiarly unalified to judge of the capabilities of a
stenographer, as I followed this occupation for fifteen years before be
ing admitted to the bar, and for the first five years after my admission
to the bar I was official stenographer of the superior courts of the
Brunswick circuit.
Although this young man is not yet 16 years of age, he is one of
the most accurate amanuenses I know of. I do not recall a half-dozen
corrections that I have had to make in his work since he has been with
me. My average speed in dictation is above one hundred words; but he
has never had to halt me in a single line, nor has he ever had occasion
to ask my assistance in transcribing his notes.
Before Wilson came with me his sister, Miss Mary Spears, also a
graduate of your institution, did my work, and if all of your graduates
are as proficient as these two, I can commend your institution without
a limitation as to praise.
Wishing you success always, I am, Very truly yours,
(Signed.) A. D. GALE.

Such results are an absolute impos
sibility with the old systems. Bag
well Business College has the exclu
sive right for this section to teach the
famous Chartier system, which can be
learned in one-half the time, and with
one-third the effort required for the
old systems.
Why spend 8 to 12 months on a
course of shorthand when better re

shorthand should not be misled by
what old-line schools say about Char

to fight it.
