Excerpt from Thought-Building in Composition: A Training-Manual in the Method and Mechanics of Writing, With a Supplementary Division on Journalistic Writing as a Means of Practice
A few words Of explanation are in place to teachers who may chance to see this booklet.
First. The manual has been prepared as a manual of practice, not of theory. Purposely, the theory has been limited to bare essentials; for the author, re gretfully but surely, has been gradually forced to the conclusion that, under present educational condi tions, the study of verbal expression in, anything but its fundamentals is better postponed to later college years, or at least reserved for the comparatively few students who Show especial ability or develop par ticular interest in it. Moreover, even the gifted and the specially interested are, at the age Of college fresh men, ordinarily not SO far advanced that extended practice in applying the foundation principles of the art will not be as good a training as they can have.
