TIER Third LECTURE,
BY PROF. WARMAE, OF CHICAGO, GIVEN
LAST MIGHT.
'Dslsrh's Philosophy Prscical" Was the Theme,
and Il Was Exceedingly We'll
Handled.

The third lecture by Prof. E. R. War
man, of Chicago, was given last night
at the Y. M. G. A. building TO an appre-
ciativs audience. 1t was q continue
ton Of the one given Tuesday evening.
The subject "Deisarte's Philosophy
Practical" was handled in his eWn in
imltable style, and 1t was calculated to
do away with much Of the prejudice eX-
listing in the minds Of the majority
against the system. This prejudice
arises from the fact that 1t is not well
enough understood to practically apply
it. and also by it's heretofore beinE pre-
sented to the public by those who do not
understand its principles. Every teacher
in Wheeling should have heard this
lecture, but they did not all hear it,
not by several. He began his talk just
where he left of on Tuesday night.
Speaking OF rising infection, monotone
and falling infection, he said the
rising is mental, the monotone
emotional and the falling vital.
II the falling infection becomes
too positive 1t arouses the COM
bative element; SO the teacher who
gives her commands ia too positive
tone ALWAYS has trouble In covering
The teacher who goes before her school
with heavy stride, especially bringing
the heel down heavily shows her weak
ness, and her pupils will give
her trouble. The tone OF
voice bespeaks the lady and
gentleman. The cultured voice is reflex
in its action. 1t brings sunshine with
it. 1t costs nothing TO speak kind
word to all we meet, and II the cultured
tone accompanies it, how much greater
the effect. When we deal with any
thing for effect we must use the emo
tional.
He said he had been exponent OF the
Delsarte philosophy for the past fifteen
years, and he believed in II; but great
deal of so-called Delsarte does not
amount to much. He believes In the
Delsarte system supplementing other
physical training. Get the grace from
the Delsarte, but the strength and
muscle from the club and dumb bell ex-
ercise.
The proper application Of the Del
sarts Philosophy has tendency to
cause US to be evenly balanced. II
will break up worry and nervousness.
1t Is very foolish to worry. All we
have to do is to say-''we will not wor-
ry." 1t takes will power to control
VERY and nervousness. 1t will do us
all good to do it. 1t will make families
happier, It will make the world better.
1t speaking of color, he said never wear
black in hot weather when the sun
shine-white Of the color for sunshine.
He passed quite tribute to physical
training when he said 1t was impossible
FOR the full developed mind or the soul
to dwell in the grOvelling body-bnt
they dwell in the well developed up
right body. There is much In the walk.
The upright walk shows the upright
character, generally. The straight
forward walk marks the same charac-
ter. The man who walks all over the
side walk has no true purpose in life.
Speech is mental, gesture is emotional
and voice is vocal Gesture should not
be taught, but should come sponta-
neously from the feeling. The little
child makes the correct gesture. All
vital gestures are from center; all
mental are toward a center, and all emo
tional gestures are around center.
He closed with two pantomimes,
showing the different emotions by the
movements OF the body.
The lecture tonight on the Critical
Analysis OF Poe's Raven" will no doubt
draw large audience. Did the people
know half what is being given the hall
would not accommodate the audiences
that would crowd to hear IL.
