The Reporter's Companion (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from The Reporter's Companion
Most reporters who have had equal opportunities of judg ing of the relative advantages of pen and pencil, prefer the former. A small glass inkstand, two inches square and one inch high, with large mouth and screw top, will be found most convenient. Smooth paper should never be used with a pencil, nor rough paper with a pen.
A pencil of medium hardness and blackness, of the qual ity of Faber's No. 3, is adapted for Phonographic reporting. For a report of a sermon, three or four pencils should be sharpened. Those who are unaccustomed to drawing will perhaps need to be told, that a pencil is best sharpened by cutting the wood to a long bevel, and rubbing the lead to a. Point upon a piece of sandstone, or a file. The pencil should be held somewhat more upright for reporting, than for longhand writing, otherwise. The point will be liable to. Be broken off.
