Drill 1
Practice each of the short phrases, such as " it-is," "of-the," "to-be," "with-this," given in the Eleventh Lesson of the Manual until it can be executed accurately at a very rapid speed. Read all the notes, repracticing any forms that are not well written. The elements of the short phrases need not be separated for practice as they present no very great executional difficulties.

The following additional phrases should be practiced in sections, and then in whole. The long phrases of the Manual should be included.
Practice in reading is just as important as writing
