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.
