| Description: | KIDDIE ON THE KEYS 11-year-old stenotypist Betty Jones shows off her speedy skills on the Stenotype machine. probably London. Various shots of 11-year-old Betty Jones operating a 'Stenotype' machine - it's like a typewriter but each button types sounds or syllables instead of a letter. She is sitting in a living room and a man in an armchair talks to her about her impressive skills and speed on the machine. The man reads a paragraph of business talk to Betty and she types it on the machine. C/U of the typed page - all the silent letters are missed out. (court reporter) | |
