Handwritten themes and note books are fast
becoming as passe as hand written business letters.
No teacher likes to waste time wading through
reams of "hen tracks." So it is only natural that he
should encourage the use of the typewriter by giving
typewritten work a higher mark.
Every high school and college student should
consider Corona an essential part of his equipment.
