Anniversary Edition
L7J}50
Manual was a big undertaking. When it was finished, there remained tasks
almost as great in the revision of "Progressive Exercises," "Gregg Speed
Studies," and the keys to all these books. These done, we were obliged to
revise all of the supplementary books in harmony with the changes that had
been made. It is with a sigh of relief that we put the finishing touches on
this Dictionary, which practically completes the series.
In the revision of all the basic texts, we were not content with chang-
ing the forms for words affected by the changes in the Anniversary Edition,
or with substituting new exercises in accordance with the new arrangement
of the rules and material, because we wanted to give effect to many improve-
ments suggested by our study and experience with the old editions, or which
were suggested by our many teacher friends. All the books incorporate new
ideas, new material, new methods.
Now as to this Dictionary: The new features are fully set forth in the
Introduction-features that I believe will render the book much more valu-
able than any previous edition.
In sending it forth, I desire to acknowledge my indebtedness to Mr.
Rupert P. SoRelle and Mr. Louis A. Leslie for their assistance in compil-
ing the lists of words used, and in classifying them in the manner set forth in
the Introduction. Special credit should be given Mrs. Winifred Kenna
Richmond for the artistic manner in which she has written the shorthand
forms.
