                   I don't  mention  this because  it's a big  deal particularly,
                but  it  is  a good conversation starter,  and  it has accom-
                plished a purpose  for my friend. He  tells me that everyone
                in his trade is talking about him and his  remarkable mem-
                ory. I do mention  it,  however,  to show  you  how  people  are
                impressed with  any sort of memory feat;  only because  they
                feel  that they  could never accomplish  it themselves. If folks
                are  so  amazed when a man remembers a  half dozen four or
                five digit  numbers, you  can imagine  the  fantastic  effect
                upon  them,  after you've mastered  the stunt  contained in
                these pages.
                  How would you  like  to be able to memorize  this  list of
                numbers:
















                  That's right! You can memorize this list  of four hun-
                dred  digits,  easily!! Not only will you know them  in  order,
                but  also  out of  sequence! The idea  is  to give anyone a copy
                of  this list, and have them test  you on it.  They  may ask
                you to give the  numbers  across for  letter  G, or  the  numbers
                down,  for  column 4.  They can  ask for E7, and  you will
                immediately give  them  the number  6720.  In other words,
                you prove  to  them  that you have thoroughly memorized  the
                list; and so you have!
                  My good friend  and memory expert, Bernard Zufall, was
                the first one that I know of, to use this type of stunt. He has
