Parallels the Quiet
Of the Pencil
7WIRTY people busy in your office
with pencil and paper and they do not
disturb you. But let even a single type
writer interrupt the quiet of the scene and
your whole train of thought runs behind
schedule.
You try to concentrate on home office
specifications. Click click click and the
thought is gone. You try to tix your mind
on an important interview. Click click
click and you begin again.
The Noiseless Typewriter gives you all
the advantages of the noisy typewriter, with
none of its disadvantages. It takes the
handicap off all manner of thinking, and
raises office efficiency to the concentration
point.
and all of this without sacrificing speed,
touch or fine quality of work. The Noiseless
is the development of the typewriter.

Then when you get well into it, the telephone

who it is, and start in with your conversation.
That's simple enough.
But here's something simpler: Take a look at
yourself when you dictate to The Ediphone.
The minute an idea strikes- you, or the minute
you have read a line from a correspondent's
letter, you lift the mouthpiece, press the button

That's all there is. There isn't any more.
