Excerpt from Junior Language Lessons: For First, Second and Third Classes
To The Boys and Girls: -
If you would excel in Composition, you must practice. Excellence comes only by careful, honest effort. From the beginning remember that "Trifles make perfection, and perfection is no trifle." Do each exercise as if it were to be handed down to the ages; and let each sentence praise the little Composition "Apprentice" who aspires to be a "Master" in the art. Criticise your own work mercilessly. Never be satisfied with "good enough." Keep correctness, usefulness and beauty in view. Be thorough. Do not be afraid of the effort it will cost to become well informed on any subject. The result will be, not only excellent compositions, but also a thoroughness of character which will be shown in every undertaking of your life.
These general ideas we supplement with the following definite rules: -
1. Let your work be neatness itself.
2. Form each letter with the greatest care.
3. Watch carefully the spelling of each word.
4. Choose words that will express the idea correctly.
5. At first, make short sentences.
6. Let each sentence contain one idea definitely expressed.
7. Express the idea grammatically.
8. Begin each sentence with a capital letter.
9. End each sentence with a period.
10. Use the interrogation mark(?), the exclamation mark(!), and the quotation marks("-")correctly.
11. Do not use such words as "and," "but," "so," "then," too often.
12. Learn to use the comma(,) properly.
