About this book
Vocal Expression, subtitled A Class-book of Voice Training and Interpretation, is by Katherine Jewell Everts. The plan of the book lists Part I, Studies in Vocal Interpretation, which includes among others a preliminary study to establish a conscious purpose and a first study to establish vitality in thinking. The book says that whatever part in the world's life we choose or are chosen to take, it remains precisely true that to speak effectively is essential to fulfilling, in the highest sense, that function.
Whether the occupation is that of cash-girl or counsellor at law, or of dish-washer or débutante, the book says crises will arise in that calling which demand a command of effective speech. A character named Alice finds that, as nearly as she can guess, she is now about two feet high and going on shrinking rapidly. The text asks what to do to relax the tense muscles, to release the throat and free the channel.
