Excerpt from Public Speaking Principles and Practice Much that might have been kept for the Preface, and thereby safely hidden from students, has been set down in the Introduction and in other parts of this book. There remains only what I Wish to say to my own tribe, the teachers of public speaking. The mom of the book is indicated by its title; or would he were it not for the fact that the term public speaking is now being stretched to cover all oral expression. At any rate, I treat here of practical public speaking, and consider within the scope of this book whatever pertains to preparing and delivering one 's own speech. What ever in this text pertains to interpretation is introduced chiefly for its bearing upon the training of practical pub lic speakers; and I have taken a broad View of what does bear upon such training. The field is too large for complete treatment in one volume of convenient size. My endeavor has been to make a book which should form the foundation for prac tically all the work in this field; but with it should be used a book on argumentation, one or more books of speeches, and also, for the sake of gaining various points of view, other texts of the same general scope as this. The main work of the student of public speaking, of course, should be speech-making; and a great deal of his instruction must be received as individual criticism.

Excerpt from Oral English and Public Speaking The need of training students in our schools in oral English has passed the stage of argument. Since in everyday life we speak hundreds of times as often as we write it is obvious, from the viewpoint of using language as a tool, that training in oral composition is quite as important as practice in the written form. To emphasize written composition more than oral English is, therefore, inconsistent with sound pedagogy. With training for citizenship as the objective, this book deals with all phases of oral English that lend themselves to more or less formal class instruction, adapted in treatment to the needs of secondary schools. In common usage the term "Oral English" is somewhat elastic. It includes the most elementary forms of spoken language, while "Public Speaking" connotes the more formal relation of a speaker and an audience. Hence, the use of both terms in the title. Notwithstanding the agitation for the incorporation of oral expression in the regular class work in English, no standardization of the content of such work has as yet been effected, as shown by the wide variation of treatment in existing texts on this subject. The present text aims to fix some definite standards; the content and plan of the book, with the reasons therefor, are outlined in the Introduction. While the needs of secondary schools have been kept primarily in mind, oral English should not, of course, be left for the high school alone, nor in the high school for the teacher of English alone.

Excerpt from A Handbook of Public Speaking It is obvious from the title and size of the volume that it is not intended to be exhaustive. I have, in fact, made a deliberate effort to stop each discussion at the point of greatest interest, leaving plenty of room for further inquiry on the part of the student, and for supplementary comment by the teacher. No student is advised to work without a teacher if he can help it; but since many are forced to do so, I have tried to present the material in such a way that the student may make something of it for himself, and apply it intelligently in practice, whether in or out of the classroom. I need hardly say that practice in some form is essential, and that nobody can learn public speaking from a book alone.

Excerpt from The Theory of Public Speaking: An Address Now public speaking is such a vast subject, inasmuch as it may be said to touch upon all knowledge, that it is not my intention to go much into detail, and my remarks shall have reference, more particularly to a set speech - and I trust I shall be able to edify those of you, who have not given the subject much attention.

Excerpt from Essentials of Public Speaking Short evening courses in public speaking have become so popular that the problem Of supplementing the work in the class room with helpful text material has given instructors great difficulty. The average text book is too large and night students have not the time to carry out programs of selective reading. The author has attempted to fill this need by setting forth in a brief, concise form only the essentials of the subject. He does not claim for the work any originality of analysis; his sole aim has been to include in one small volume a brief but comprehensive outline of the fundamentals of effective speaking in as logical an order as the subject permits.
