Capital W should be very closely studied. The tendency is to slant the
last part too much, tipping it away from the first part. The upward
stroke beginning the second part is a right curve, and the construction
of the last part and the appearance of the entire letter are to a
considerable extent dependent upon that line.
In making the first part there should be a stop at the base line. This
will aid very much in the construction of the last part of the letter.
The last line in the letter, it will be noticed, is shorter than the two
center strokes. It is unlikely that students who fail to study its
construction closely will learn to make a good capital W. The rate
should be between forty and fifty letters to a minute. Do not neglect
the word practice.
Write about sixteen words to the minute.
