FIVE-MINUTE READINGS

Cloth, 50 Cents.

Pupils in public schools on declamation days are limited to five minutes each for the delivery of "pieces." There is a great complaint of the scarcity of material for such a purpose, while the injudicious pruning of eloquent extracts has often marred the desired effects. To obviate these difficulties, these books have been prepared by a competent teacher.

ELOCUTION SIMPLIFIED

With an Introduction by George M. Baker.
CLOTH, 50 CENTS.

"The Manual is divided into four parts. Part First describes a series of gymnastics to give strength and elasticity to the muscles used in speaking. Part Second is a system of vocal exercises for daily practice. Part Third, the application of the vocal exercises to the reading of short extracts, showing the effect when thus applied. Part Fourth is a chapter giving general hints on elocution, and showing how easily defects in speech may be cured.

With or without an instructor, this Manual is just what the student is in great need of, and he can supply that need by a study of 'Elocution Simplified.'"- The Dartmouth, Hanover, N.H.
