She comes from a homeof culture, her father being a life-long student and teacher. She received her special training at Emerson College of Oratory, Boston; Conservatory of Cincinnati; Posse Gymnasium, Boston; and private instruction With many of the best private teachers and readers of the day. She was director of Oratory and Physical Culture in Broaddus Classical and Scientific Institute for three years; director of Oratory at Bessie Tiff College, Forsyth, Ga., and has done studio work in Cincinnati, Ohio. She has devoted much time to higher physical education and has some interesting lectures on the subject. Americanized Delsarte and Swedish Gymnastics, as taught by Miss Reid, are of great benefit to her pupils. Miss Annie Belle Reid is a teacher of striking force of personality, broad sympathies, admirable preparation, and one Whom I would recommend most strongly to an institution desiring an accomplished instructor. Miss Reid is an indefatigable worker; her ideals are of the highest, and she makes her pupils' cause her own, and is one Who Will serve loyally the interest of any institution to Which she is attached and Will prove a sound and constructive influence in the community. HENRY S. SOUTHWICK, President Emerson College of Oratory, Boston, M assachusetts. I take pleasure in saying Miss Annie Belle Reid completed With me a course in the Murdock System of Expression, and has. done excellent work. This together With her previous study and unusually high degree of mentality, com- bine to make her an excellent teacher.

Her vgork was emineyntly satisfactoryesuch 9th as might be expected OI a teacher of Wide experience and thorough tramingeand her'work reflects her ability as an instructor. Miss Reid is a product of that old time Southern eul- ture, besides being a young lady of fine appearance, Who dresses W1th becoming taste and takes pride in her chosen line of work. STUART F. REED, President Board of Trustees, Bessie Tiff I nstimte. It is With great pleasure that I take the opportunity 0t testifying .to the espe- cial ability and scholarship of Miss Annie Belle R61d3 Wlth whom it has been my good fortune to have been associated in a scholastlc .Capamty for sqme tune. Her work is thorough and embraces the whole field of literary expresswn; and her didactic methods, unique in their simplicity and effectiveness, are the result, evidently, of much serious study and observation. It would be supererogatory ' to say more than that Miss Reid is a young lady of h1gh culture and refinement and Will be a valuable addition from all standpoints, to Whatever school or fac- ulty may secure her services. JOHN JAs. BASSETT WOOTEN, PH.D., Dean University Extension, University of New York. The aim of this department is to awaken and develop in the student a knowledge of her power of expression and to make natural and artis- tic readers and speakers. Individual faults and mannerisms are carefully noted and corrected, While the pupills natural powers are constantly strengthened. A11 . work in this department is based upon the practical. There are many Who would be enabled to occupy broader fields of usefulness and eX- perience greater joy in the daily round of existence, if they could com- mand that happy consciousness Which results from a cultivation of the entire personality of expression; of the body for reposeful attitude, graceful bearing, and noble presence; of the voice in music, speech, or sympathetic song; of the mind, for firm mental grasp, keen percep- tion, and vigorous concentration; and 0f the soul, for that spiritual glow that irradiates and enkindles. Longfellow says, llOf equal value to him Who writes a noble poem is he Who reads it nobly. No imi- tative processes Will be followed. The pupil must learn to seek truth Within herself. During the four years course, the development will follow the nat- ural Evolution of a11Art,through periods in Which are manifested Life, Attraction, Will and Intellect.
