eachers, $1.20, postpaid. Your volume is to me a very wonderful book,--it is so deeply philosophic, and so exhaustive of all aspects of the subject.... No one can read your book without at least gaining a high ideal of the study of expression. You have laid a deep and strong foundation for a scientific system. And now we wait for the superstructure.--Professor Alexander Melville Bell. It is a most valuable book, and ought to be instrumental in doing much good.--Professor J. W. Churchill, D.D. A book of rare significance and value, not only to teachers of the vocal arts, but also to all students of fundamental pedagogical principle.
