MATHEMATICS Preface English for Secretariesis presented as a
textbook on letter writing and on English usage as required in
correspondence. It is intended especially for students schools and
colleges who are preparing to become secretaries and planning to
fill positions of responsibility that require a broad education as
well as a definite knowledge of the special skills necessary for
success in their chosen work. A secretary must, of course, be able
to write effective letters, correct in form and details and
attractive in appearance. This book, therefore, provides
explanations of many types of letters, business, semi business,
official, and social all of which a secretary may be called upon to
write for her employer. It also includes numerous models and
exercises which obviate the need for a workbook. Since a basic
requirement of good letter writing is a knowledge of such
fundamentals as capitalization, punctuation, and grammar, rules for
the use of these tools, with exercises and illustrations, are
supplied so that students needing such aid may turn to these
chapters for frequent drill and review. A secretary must also be
proficient in spelling, pronunciation, and the accurate use of
words. For this purpose a chapter is devoted to dictionary study
for which copious exercises are provided. As the subject is limited
to the secretarial field, instead of being extended in an attempt
to cover the broader range of vi Preface business English, the
author hopes that this book may prove especially valuable to
students in secretarial courses and that it may furnish authority
for disputed questions that often arise in business correspondence.
The author wishes to acknowledge the courtesy of the fol lowing
