Synopsis
Excerpt from Problems and Principles of Correct English: Grammar, Punctuation, Rhetorical Criticism; Accompanied by "Dictionary of Errors"
Constructive Composition More Important Than Don'ts. - Few bad sentence makers were ever cured by the medicine of don'ts. Positive skill (and with it positive accuracy) comes from vigorous use of the Franklin and Stevenson method of reading good models and practicing unceasingly on imitating them. Such practice is given by Exercises in Letter Writing (facsimile letters to be answered) arranged to accompany the book How to Do Business by Letter and Training Course in' Conversational English. A constructive interest in doing business makes pupils see the utility of correct English, and the teacher is supplied with ample material for continual classwork in personal detailed criticism and rewriting of poorly formed sentences. Habitual errors must be hammered on persistently if the bad habits are to be eradicated. That book contains as much formal work on gram mar as experience has shown it is possible to give in a six months' course without slighting the composition work. Purpose of This Book. - This book is intended to supplement Exercises in Business Letter Writing when the course extends beyond six months, as it does in many high schools, and to supply a practical high school or college review course in correct English to accompany the advanced book How to Do Business by Letter and Advertising (inter national Edition) and the Literary Composition Drill Book.
