Shorthand isn’t just for girls,
according to Wilmer E. Ken wor
thy, executive secretary of the
College, who declares that “the
opportunity for men secretaries
today is greater than ever.” '
Mr. Kenworthy pointed out that
many executives and famous men
—including Samuel Insull, Ed
ward Bok, Governor Harry Moore
of New Jersey, Herbert Hoover
and Billy Rose—used shorthand or
typing to get jobs which proved to
be stepping stones to later careers.
“Help-wanted columns are
filled with advertisements for
male stenographers,” he contin
ued. “Employment agencies have
more calls for young men secre
taries than they can fill. The col
lege graduate equipped with sten
ography has an added advantage
in gaining an opportunity which
otherwise might be denied him.”
Court reporting is another field
open to the man who is expert in
shorthand, Mr. Kenworthy added,
and many statesmen also use men
stenographers.
“Not only are these jobs inter
esting,” he said, “but they are the
most stable and dependable in the
business world. In addition, they
are very often an entering wedge
to executive positions. There is
no better place to leam the bus
iness than next to the chief’s
desk.”
