"They're all taken care of for me. The little
Automatic Index for each dictated cylinder
comes along to me with the Mail Pocket
holding the related correspondence.
"All I have to do is to slip the index on my
Transophone. The corrections and changes
and the order in which letters are to be
written are right there before my eyes. I
don't have to listen all the way through a
letter to discover where it is changed or
corrected; or to find out, too late, that it
should have been the first letter written.
"Any stenographer who uses The Ediphone
System lenoivs what a big thing the per
