Excerpt from Selections for Reading: With an Introduction Upon Elocution; Prepared for Use in Schools and Academies
This book has been prepared for classes somewhat advanced ln their school course.
The part containing the theory of Elocution has been made quite brief, inasmuch as many of the topics usually receive treat ment when pupils are younger.
In teaching Reading, it is best to cultivate the conversational powers of classes and to avoid too much declamation, fiin short, to rely upon careful and quiet practice to develop volume and to improve expression. Whilst learning to nse'a conversational tone, the voice becomes stronger, fuller, and more expressive. Any special training as 'an elocutionist should not form-1 part of the school course.
Some attempt has been made to arrange the Selections so that lessons may be assigned in course.
