He will have the confidence of experience, and can paint with a big brush because all the details of affairs are now familiar to his mentality. With this assured technique nothing will check the career. "Why," says the innkeeper in an adaptation from Bernard Shaw's sketch of Napoleon in Italy, "conquering countries is like folding a tablecloth. Once the first fold is made, the rest is easy.

It gives only fitting body to a beautiful idea its soul! He blushed and trembled whilst I spoke. Englishmen do not often talk poetry off the stage. He answered 'No, really, Calvotti, old man, that's rot, you know.

"You were right, though. The technique was easy, but the control damnsure isn't. Do you think I'll ever get the hang of it?" "Of course you will," she replied.

If a great teacher or singer makes any announcement whatever in regard to the technique of his art, it is natural that it should be considered with attention, but it may prove a great misfortune for the individual to accept it without thoughtful consideration. The author will illustrate, from time to time, the truth of the above.
