Miss Mary Lee Hewitt, one of the operators out of our last class, has accepted a position with the Southern Power Co. in the Auditing Dept. We wouldn't have mentioned this but we feel she deserves a little credit for this as she is the first trained operator they have ever had. I guess being a blonde had something to do with it.

Paul J. Potts, Soliciting Agent, left last week for a business trip through South Carolina. Mr. Potts left with three new Comptometers and a new Ford; and, too, being a new man, we see no reason why he should not bring back some orders.
Mr. W. E. Sloan, General Agent, has just returned from a two weeks' business trip over the two Carolinas, and says business is very good.

Miss Etta Wylie, one of our older operators, left a short time back for New York, where she will accept a position.

Misses Ellen Blythe and Anna Bell Cochrane, two Charlotte girls, spent their vacation in the city. They have been employed with the Florida Power and Light Co. at Miami, being very lucky they were not hurt in the storm.—Rosa M. Cantrell.
CORRECT POSITION
"If your fingers are all thumbs, maybe your seat is too low," writes one correspondent.
Right you are! Sitting too low is the commonest of all faults in typewriting. It is a fault committed by probably one operator out of every three.
Fatigue, backache, lack of speed, inaccuracy, uneven touch; all these may result from sitting too low.
Maybe you are sitting too low and do not realize it. If there is any doubt in your mind on the subject, just raise your seat a couple of inches and see what happens.
The above, copied from the Remington News, carries a lesson for all of us.
