Excerpt from The Essentials of Extempore Speaking
The above represents a noble and inspiring conception of the speaker; to say anything further on that phase of the subject would, I am afraid, be in the nature of an anti - Climax. But such a point of View is not calculated to minister to the requirements of the great body of students, teachers, lawyers, doctors, businessmen, and Simia lar everyday people who will never have occasion to scale the heights of eloquence, but who often need to express their ideas clearly, forcefully, and attractively to their fellowmen. It is to such that the following pages are addressed.
The material used represents, in the main, a condensation and arrangement of the notes and criticisms which the writer has found most helpful to classes during ten years devoted chiefly to helping men - students, business and professional men - to develop their ability to Speak effectively.

Excerpt from The Essentials of Extempore Speaking
The following pages aim to embody in clear and concise form the essentials of practical, extempore speaking. No attempt is made to add to the bibliography of oratory, which is already adequate.
