About this number
Nell Hale reaches it with N, L and L making 11 in the first name and H and L making 11 in the second. Because both parts stop at 11, the sum is 22, and the calculator leaves it whole.
Taylor in 1926 looks at outward station for this number and names executives, diplomats and statesmen as progressive examples. Bookkeepers and clerks, the book says, may carry the same number without knowing its power, a flat claim that belongs to that book and its decade.
Balliett in 1905 thought 22 better suited to the world than 11. Coffman in 1927 keeps it whole only for spiritual subjects and otherwise brings it down to 4, and Sepharial's 1911 list gives chastisement and hurt. Modern popular books read a Personality of 22 as a capable, high-standing first impression, closer to Taylor than to the others.
