THS DICTATION IS A TRIAL THAT ALLOWS THE WRITER TO FOCUS ON PHRASES AND BRIEFS WHILE ALSO TRANSCRIBING TESTIMONY FROM A HEARING. THE LISTENER IS EXPECTED TO TYPE THIS UP AS IF THEY HAD TO PRESENT THIS TO THE COMMITTEE. A COVER PAGE, APPEARANCE PAGE, AND INDEX PAGE SHOULD BE TYPED AND THE TESTIMONY TRANSCRIBED.

THIS DICTATION IS ON QUICK TEMPER AND THE DICTATION BROKEN DOWN FOR 3 DIFFERENT SPEEDS TO PRACTICE. THE FIRST READ IS FOR WRITERS AT ABOUT 100-120 WPM, SECOND READ IS 150 TO 160 AND  THE LAST READ IS 160 TO 180. THANKS A BUNCH FOR LISTENING AND SUPPORTING! TRANSCRIPT BELOW.  SANDRA'S STENOGRAPHY & SHORTHAND DICTATION https://archive.org/details/dictateracollec00wardgoog/page/n166/mode/2up QUICK TEMPER  A matter not unworthy of remark is the almost universal claim laid to that supposed to be desirable possession, a quick temper.  "I have a frightfully  quick temper, " is an assertion often made without any sign of regret, rather with self-complacency. And how often, when with the intention of saying something pleasing, we remark upon the sweetness of a friend's disposition in person,  we are met with the reply, Oh! you're quite mistaken; I'm one of the quickest tempered people in the world! " given in a tone that does not imply modest depreciation of a compliment, but a decided sense of unappreciated merit.  Now this willingness--eagerness it may even without exaggeration be called--to be convicted of what is acknowledged to be a fault strikes one as a curious anomaly. No one would answer, if told, "You are very truthful, " Oh, no I'm a constant liar, nor if complimented upon consistent attention to his own business, would respond,  "On the contrary, scandal-mongering is my favorite occupation. " At least, no one would give any of these answers in the serious way in which the claim of a hot temper is made.  May there not an underlying this inconsistency and explaining it a misconception of the real meaning and source of a hot temper?  To many minds, this undesirable trait seems to be the outcome of many admirable qualities. To be hot -tempered means inferentially, in such mental vocabularies, to be generous, large-minded, unselfish, and after a little lapse of time--forgiving.  But I maintain that it means exactly the reverse of all these things. If a man be quick--tempered, if he give way to anger quickly, he is not generous, for he shows no regard for the comfort of those around him; he is not unselfish, for it is safe to say that in nine cases out of ten his fury is kindled by some fancied slight to himself, and is allowed to blaze simply as an illumination in honor of his self-esteem; he is not forgiving, because though he may recover quickly from his aberration, and soon be perfectly urbane to the whilom victim of it, the restoration is simply forgetfulness, and to forget the injury inflicted upon another by his own hasty words is by no means synonymous with forgiveness of injuries he himself may have received. Last of all, he is not large-minded.  I am convinced that a quick temper is an unfailing indication of limited intelligence and lack of mental quickness. If the mind was large enough to grasp the true relation of things, to see how small a point in the universe this temper-rousing episode occupied, and if it could see this quickly, the outburst would be averted.  From the DICTATOR PG 164

This episode consists of medical dictation in the form of letters from one doctor to another on the Influenza outbreak of 1918. It was also known as the Spanish Flu and very similar to the Covid -19 as you will hear. It is not read at any particular speed to allow everyone to be able to practice. This is meant to improve your medical terminology and writing these words in shorthand. Please pay attention to your accuracy and not speed. Thanks for listening and supporting. Transcript is below as well as the words you may have trouble with.  influenza, poorer, preventing, remedies, director, infectious, disposal, discharges, prevention, formulate, transmissible, contagious, disease, bacillus, secretions, symptoms, catarrhs, indefinite, restricted, realized, sputum, cuspidor, carbolic, burned, soiled  Dr. C.S. Kimball,  347 East Chicago Avenue, Chicago Illinois Dear Doctor,  In view of the present epidemic of influenza, I propose to issue a small circular to reach the poorer classes in the community with information as to the best methods of preventing grippe. I should be pleased to have any suggestions from you on the subject. I desire to make the circular short, and not to suggest any remedies or methods of treatment; the only advice in that connection would be to have the patient placed in bed and to send for a doctor.  Yours very truly,  Dr. Frank A. Field, Director,  Bureau of Health,  Chicago, ILL  Apart from general laws of hygiene and of hygiene of infections as to disposal of discharges, etc, I know of no mode of prevention. Your stall can formulate such rules better than I.  Yours sincerely,  Dear Doctor,  Influenza is a transmissible or contagious disease. The influenza bacillus is present in the secretions from the upper air passages, including the nose. It persists in many cases after the active symptoms subside, and probably in all cases in which post-influenzal catarrhs occur for an indefinite time.  The spread of the disease would be much restricted if patients suffering from it fully realized that it is spread by means of the sputum, and took proper precautions to prevent its transmission. These consist in the use of a spit-cup or cuspidor containing a 5% solution of carbolic acid; holding rags or gauze in front of the mouth and nose during coughing and sneezing, such cloths being immediately burned; and the boiling of handkerchiefs, sheets, night-clothes, and other garments soiled with the discharges, for at least half an hour. Yours very truly,
