FROM ALABAMA.
SOPHOMORE PRIZE DECLAMATIONS.
Naturalness of voice and manner
is almost absent from the declama
tions of our schools. Especially so
is this true of the elocutionary reci
tals of our girls. And, each one
seems to have been trained by the
same unnatural model, to the de
struction of her own individuality of
speaking.
A|false tone and the start theatric
are affected. One, judging from the
attitudes and frequent gestures of
the speakers, would conclude that
their conception of oratory is stagi
ness.
The great Demosthenes did put
action as the first, second and third
thing in the true orator; still if we
must follow his advice, by all means
let our action be natural. True ac
tion in oratory involves feeling. Gen
uine natural action is the resultant
of genuine feeling. But
your declaimer has not put himself
in the place of the author of his
piece. He does not understand him,
and, of course, he does not feel his
words, nor can he convey the senti
ment of the author to the hearer.
His unnatural tone, manner and
false emphasis, confuse the sense and
while the air is abundantly sawed,
the piece is mouthed and murdered.
If one cannot give the pronuncia
’ tion the author thought in, he can
not convey his sentiments. The
more naturally this is done the bet
ter. The more feelingly and force
fully, with naturalness the better
still. C. K. Henderson.
The ministers and deacons meeting
of Sarepta Association will be held
with the Danielsville church, com
mencing July 29th. All ministers
and deacons of the Association urged
to attend, as brethren are prepared
to take care of you. Those coming
by rail wilLhe met at Five Forks, 0.
C. <t N. R. R-, about 11 a. m. Please
inform Bro. S. C. O’Kelly and he
will meet you. J. A. Shank.
