"Well, then, I guess it's a good chance to give Mr. Dryfoos an idea of what we've really done just while we're resting, as Artemus Ward says. Heigh, March?" "I will let you blow the trumpet, Fulkerson. I think it belongs strictly to the advertising department," said March.
Moreover, the training in tone-production is carried on during the singing of the compositions just described, as well as by practice on "voice-placing" exercises strictly speaking.

"It's the way of the world," so he argued; "and unless I do as the world does, I must remain where I am at the bottom of the ladder.
