Page 21 - Whereas the experience of many years in the instruction of the deaf has plainly shown that among the members of this class of persons great differences exist in mental and physical conditions and in capacity for improvement, making results easily possible in certain cases which are practically and sometimes actually unattainable in others, these differences suggesting widely different treatment with different individuals: It is therefore " Resolved, That the system of instruction existing at present...
Page 272 - ... do you begin with lip positions instead of back positions? The lip positions are the most visible. The deaf child understands what the symbols mean when applied to the lips, because he can see the positions assumed. This knowledge he applies to the interior positions that cannot be so easily seen.

This good and happy news delighted me exceedingly, for then I...

In spelling phonetically the vast majority of the vowel sounds in the unaccented syllables may be represented by this indefinite voice mark ; and it may also be substituted everywhere for glide r. I would recommend those who do not use Visible Speech to use a dash. Ordinary people who know nothing of phonetics or elocution have difficulty in understanding slow speech composed of perfect elementary...

Page 186 - ... was very timid, and did not like to be left by myself. And I would keep my little hand on her face all the while, because it amused me to feel her face and lips move when she talked with people. I did not know then what she was doing, for I was quite ignorant of all things. Then when I was older I learned to play with my nurse and the little negro children and I noticed that they kept moving their lips just like my mother, so I moved mine too, but sometimes it made me angry and I would hold my...
Page 187 - I then placed my tongue in the position for the sound of I in it, and let her find the point, as it lay perfectly still and soft in the bed of the jaw, just behind the lower front teeth, and discover that the teeth were slightly parted.
