Excerpt from Rhythmical Gymnastics Vocal and Physical
IT is my purpose in this book to give exercises only, to prepare the instrument for interpretation.
It may, therefore, be used, with benefit, by all classes of people, whether in public or private life.
One of the most eminent members of the clerical profession once said to me: I would be so glad to correct many faults in my vocal production, thereby saving my voice and strength; but you elocutionists will interpret the Scripture for me, instead of training me not to grow hoarse, and not to Speak so rapidly that no one can understand me.
