MODERN ELOQUENCE

(12 Volumes)

One of the striking developments in the business world has, been the increasing tendency toward the spirit of co-operation. To-day business men recognize their mutual interests and come together on frequent occasions to dis- cuss the common welfare, What is the result? It means that the business man of to-day is a public speaker.

The man who is obliged to decline invitations to speak in public through lack of confidence in his ability "does himself a serious injustice.

"

MODERN ELOQUENCE offers specialized assistance 10 the man who is called upon for talks on business or any other subject. In addition to the practical course of in- struction it contalas on public' speaking, Volume IV is devoted exclusively to addresses on business and industry. Cut out and mail us this coupon
