of a hat. Now, link hat to gloves, and then gloves to dress.
When Page #14 is called, the peg word will remind you
of hat; hat will tell you that the next picture is of gloves,
and gloves will remind you of dress.
If you have seen my performance, you know that I also
tell the audience on what part of the page the picture is
located; whether it is on the lower or upper left part of the
page, upper or lower right, or center, etc. Well, you can
do this too, and without any extra effort.
As I've already mentioned, your normal or true memory
does most of the work for you; these systems are just aids
that make it easier. As you use my systems you'll find your
true memory getting stronger. The best example of this is
in memorizing a magazine. In order to make the associa-
tions in the first place, you must really see and observe the
picture on the page. Because of this, when any page number
is called, the peg word for that number acts as an aid to
enable you to almost reproduce the entire page in your
mind's eye. You will know on what part of the page the pic-
ture is located. You can only prove this to yourself by try-
ing it.
The only thing you will not be able to do as yet, is to
remember the names of any people pictured on the pages.
This problem will be solved for you after you've read the
chapters on remembering names and faces, and how to
utilize substitute words or thoughts.
Before reading any further, learn the last of the one
hundred peg words.
