ADDRESS 
 
 Ladies and Gentlemen : As short a time ago as the year 
 1890, such a meeting as this was supposed to be impossible. 
 Teachers of the deaf, of course, have met in conventions before ; 
 but they have been entertained at the expense of some school for 
 the deaf. Teachers of the deaf, as a rule, are not overburdened 
 with means, and it was supposed to be impossible to bring about 
 any large gathering of this kind at the expense of the teachers 
 themselves. 
 
 Well, last year we tried the experiment, and one hundred 
 and fifty teachers of the deaf assembled at Lake George, — 
 not for three or four days, as had been the case in conventions, 
 but for ten days, — and paid their own expenses. Well, that 
 was an experiment, and it was thought that we could not do 
 that again, at least not the very next year ; but again we have 
 come together in increased numbers, full of energy and enthu- 
 siasm for our work. On behalf of the board of directors, I 
 may say that we accept this large gathering as an endorsement 
 of the value of the work that was accomplished during the last 
 meeting. We accept it as a proof that you have been satisfied, 
 and that the teachers who came here last year from far and 
 wade, at considerable expense and inconvenience to themselves, 
 have profited by what they found here, to such an extent that 
 they are willing to incur all this expense and trouble again, in 
 the belief that they will be amply repaid, and return to their 
 schools better equipped for their work. 
 
 I need hardly say that the board of directors are highly grati- 
 fied by this mark of your confidence, and we trust that you will 
 all go away from Lake George with the feeling that you have 
 received still more that is of value and help to you in your noble 
 work, and that you will all feel that it has paid you to come. 
 
 Upon this occasion it would be a proper thing for me to say 
 a few words regarding the object of our Association, what we 
 have accomplished during the past year, and what we aim to do 
 in the future. However, that subject will come up in our meeting 
 
this evening, and it will hardly, therefore, be necessary for me 
 this morning to do more than direct your attention to the object 
 that brings us together, — to the great end and aim of our exist- 
 ence as an Association, — and to give you some report of the prog- 
 ress of articulation teaching in America since our last meeting. 
 
 For a great many years past, the advocates of the different 
 methods of educating the deaf have been in generous rivalry 
 with one another ; and in our conventions we have discussed 
 very fully the relative m.erits of the different methods of instruc- 
 tion. Into the contest between the different methods of instruc- 
 tion we don't propose to go. We are an entirely neutral body. 
 In 1886, at the California convention, a resolution was unani- 
 mously adopted by the entire profession, including teachers who 
 were violently opposed to one another upon other subjects. It 
 w^as in effect that every deaf child should be given a chance 
 to learn to speak. It was in effect that earnest and persistent 
 endeavors should be made in every school for the deaf, to teach 
 every child to speak and read from the lips. That is the plat- 
 form upon which we stand. We have come into existence as 
 an organization, not to antagonize any school or system of 
 schools, but to help schools of all sorts in America to carry out 
 the spirit and purport of that resolution. 
 
 REPORT ON ARTICULATION TEACHING IN AMERICA. 
 
 I have made a close examination of the statistics of articula- 
 tion teaching in order to ascertain how far that resolution has 
 been carried into effect. Great progress is manifest since our 
 last Summer Meeting ; but though a great increase has taken 
 place in the number of articulation teachers employed, and in 
 the number of deaf pupils taught articulation, still the majority 
 of our pupils have not yet been given an opportunity of learning 
 to speak. I beg to place in your hands a detailed analysis of the 
 statistics of speech-teaching in American schools for the deaf, 
 which I have compiled from the American Annals of the Deaf 
 for your information [See Appendix] . The statistics concerning 
 articulation teaching extend back only as far as the year 1884. 
 
 The tables I have placed in your hands will show you the 
 total number of pupils in ej^ch school for the deaf in the United 
 
States and the Dominion of Canada, and the total number of 
 
 pupils taught speech in each year from 1884 up to the present 
 
 time. From these figures I have calculated the percentage of 
 
 pupils taught speech in each school for the deaf; and the results 
 
 are shown graphically in the charts placed in your hands. The 
 
 tables also include the total number of teachers employed in 
 
 each school for the deaf, and the total number of these who are 
 
 engaged in teaching articulation. 
 
 The following Tables give a summary of the results shown 
 
 in detail in the Appendix. They exhibit the general statistics 
 
 of articulation teaching in the United States up to January, 
 
 1892 : —

 The total number of teachers of the deaf employed in the 
 United States in 1890 was 641, and in 1891, 686. This is an 
 increase of 45. When we come to analyze the details we find 
 that this is an increase exclusively of articulation teachers. 
 This is shown by the following facts: In 1890 there were 213 
 articulation teachers employed, whereas in 1S91 there were 
 260, — an increase of 47 articulation teachers. The first 
 statistics upon this subject were collected by the Annals in 1886. 
 In that year we find articulation teachers constituted 32.8 per 
 cent, of the hearing teachers in our schools for the deaf; in 
 1887 they constituted 40.5 per cent. ; in 1888, 44 per cent. ; in 
 1889, 45.7 per cent.; in 1890, 45.2 per cent.; in 1891, the 
 latest returns, 50 per cent. Indeed, they constituted one more 
 than 50 per cent. There were 260 articulation teachers to 259 
 hearing teachers who were not engaged in articulation work. 
 
 In regard to the proportion of deaf pupils taught speech, the 
 increase during the past year has been very marked. In 1890 
 there were 3,682 deaf' children in the United States taught 
 speech; in 1891, 4,245, an increase of 563. In 1890, 41.3 per 
 cent, of our pupils were taught speech; in 1891, 46 per cent. 
 I am sure that this increase is due very gready to the sdmulus 
 of the first Summer Meeting of this Association. 
 
 The following diagram illustrates in a graphical manner the 
 percentage of pupils taught speech in American schools for the 
 deaf since the year 1884, when statistics upon the subject were 
 first collected by the Annals : —

 No attempts to teach speech have been made to the percent- 
 age of pupils shown by the black lines on the right-hand side 
 of the diagram ; and, unfortunately, these pupils still constitute 
 
the majority of the whole. There is still work, therefore, for this 
 Association to do, for no attempt has yet been made to teach 
 speech to 54 per cent, of our pupils. Of course, the statistics 
 in the Annals include the whole of our pupils, old as well as 
 young ; and it has occurred to me, therefore, that they may not 
 trive us a true indication of the extent to which the California 
 Resolution is being carried out in the country at large, and that 
 a better indication would be obtained by statistics concerning 
 younger pupils alone. I therefore sent out a circular letter of 
 inquiry to the superintendents and principals of American 
 schools for the deaf, requesting, — 
 
 (i) The total number of new pupils admitted during the 
 school year just closed ; 
 
 (2) The number of new pupils taught speech ; and 
 
 (3) The number of these taught by speech.

 A. Complete returns were received from these schools. 
 
 B. The returns received from these schools did not state definitely the number of new pupils 
 
 taught by speech. (See Table in the Appendix.) The Canadian schools marked "B" 
 refer to the two Roman Catholic schools in Montreal. They return 126 pupils, or 41 per 
 cent, of the whole, as taught by speech ; but do not state how many of the new pupils were 
 so taught. 
 
 C. These schools did not reply to the circular letter of inquiry. 
 
lO 
 
 Replies have been received from schools containing 7,987 
 pupils, or 80 per cent, of the v\ hole number under instruction 
 in tlie United States and Canada. It is encouraging to note 
 that while 46 per cent, of the whole number in our schools last 
 year were taught articulation, 70 per cent, of the younger pupils 
 were afforded an opportunity of learning to speak. The sta- 
 tistics published in the Annals are somewhat defective, because, 
 while they give us the total number of pupils taught speech, 
 they do not give us the number taught by speech ; so that we 
 have no statistics by which we can measure the progress of the 
 oral method of teaching in America. 
 
 Professor Joseph C. Gordon of the National Deaf-Mute 
 College, in some editorial remarks prefacing a volume entitled 
 " The Education of the Deaf," about to be issued by the Volta 
 Bureau, says: ''The returns of pupils taught dy speech are 
 incomplete. The number reported for 1891 is 963, or 10.4 per 
 cent, of the school population." The above table indicates that 
 the percentage, in the case of the younger pupils, must be very 
 much larger. Out of 836 new pupils admitted during the past 
 school-year, 363, or 43 per cent., were taught by speech. 
 
 This percentage, however, is probably excessive, because the 
 table shows that those schools w^hich have done the most work 
 in articulation teaching have been the most ready to respond to 
 inquiries relating to the subject. We cannot, therefore, assume 
 that the percentage holds for the schools that have not replied 
 to my circular letter. 
 
 Still, even if we assume that these 363 deaf children were all 
 who were taught by the oral method, the percentage must be 
 very much higher than that given by Professor Gordon. This 
 will be obvious from the following considerations ; — 
 
 The schools containing these cases had a total attendance of 
 5,614 pupils, of whom 836, or 15 per cent., were new pupils 
 admitted during the past school-year. 
 
 If this proportion held good for the whole country, then 
 there must have been a total of 1,385 new pupils, — or 15 per 
 cent, of 9,232, — admitted during the year just closed. 
 
 Now 363 of these, at least — or 26 per cent. — we know 
 were taught by speech. Hence, for the younger pupils the 
 
II 
 
 true proportion taught by speech lies somewhere between 26 and 
 43 per cent, of the whole. The lowest estimate very much 
 exceeds the figures of Professor Gordon. 
 
 We have no means of ascertaining whether the proportion of 
 our pupils taught by speech is increasing or diminishing ; and 
 I think it would be well for this Association to direct the atten- 
 tion of the editor of the Annals to the importance of collecting 
 and publishing statistics upon this subject. 
 
 I have glanced over the reports of American schools for the 
 deaf that have been published since our last meeting, and there 
 are a few points contained in them to which I shall direct your 
 attention. 
 
 In the Twelfth Biennial Report of the American Asylum at 
 Hartford, the principal, Dr. Job Williams, gives his view^s upon 
 what constitutes success in articulation work. He says, — 
 
 "We hold that direct and earnest effort should be 
 made by expert teachers of those branches, to teach speech 
 and speech-reading to every pupil, and in no case should 
 that effort be abandoned until those teachers are convinced 
 that the pupil will never acquire enough of speech to be 
 of any practical use. In some very unpromising cases the 
 possibility of acquiring speech is not given up for two or 
 three years. Here let me say that the criterion of success 
 in speech should not he perfect naturalness of tone and 
 inflection. It would be imreasonable to expect that, where 
 the sense of hearing is wanting. Intelligibility is the 
 prime requisite of good speech. Tone and inflection are 
 secondary considerations. Any fupil who has mastered 
 speech and lip-reading so far as to be able to carry on 
 conversation in regard to the ordinary affairs of life 
 ifi speech so plain as to be readily understood by the 
 members of his own family^ even though others fail to 
 understand him^ should be counted as a successful 
 articulator and lip-reader. It is worth while to continue 
 the instruction in these branches in many cases where the 
 degree of success falls considerably short of the ability to 
 carry on an extended conversation, provided that what of 
 speech is acquired is easily understood. We must recog- 
 nize the fact that intelligible speech is the readiest and most 
 
12 
 
 acceptable means of communication with people in gen- 
 eral, but it must be intelligible. It is worth while for a 
 child to gain even a limited amount of speech and lip- 
 reading (the latter is as important as the former) in all 
 cases where it can be done without serious sacrifice in 
 mental development and acquisition of language." 
 
 We must all agree w^ith Mr. Williams in these remarks. We 
 should, of course, aim to have our pupils speak so clearly and 
 distinctly that any one can understand them ; but I am sure Mr. 
 Williams is right in saying that a much lower degree of pro- 
 ficiency might constitute a pupil a successful articulator and 
 speech-reader. Mr. Williams rightly claims that oral instruc- 
 tion is successful if the speech of pupils is intelligible to their 
 friends in their own homes and among their own people, even 
 though others have difficulty in understanding what they say. 
 It is a very difficult thing for a teacher, and especially for an 
 articulation teacher, to realize this. I have been myself a 
 teacher of articulation, and I know how you feel. Your ears 
 are sensitive to mispronunciations, as mine were. It is difficult 
 for you to realize that voices which to you may be disagree- 
 able in tone, may be very sweet and pleasant to those at home. 
 It is difficult for you to realize that imperfect speech may be 
 better than none at all ; and that speech so defective as to be 
 unintelligible to strangers, may be of the greatest value to the 
 pupils, in their own homes and among their own people, as a 
 means of communication. This fact has been specially 
 impressed upon my attention by the report of the Mississippi 
 Institution, which, in many respects, is a very remarkable docu- 
 ment. That Institution has had a class of twelve pupils taught 
 altogether by speech and speech-reading. While all of them 
 have made great progress in speech-reading, some have gained 
 but little power of speech. Mr. Dobyns, the Principal, says, — 
 
 " While I have been more than satisfied that the Insti- 
 tution was justifiable in the small outlay in this depart- 
 ment of instruction, yet, for fear my zeal to keep pace with 
 the times may have gotten the better of my judgment, I 
 submitted the following questions to the parents of the 
 pupils in this class, knowing they desired the very best 
 thing for their children." 
 
13 
 
 I will not take up your time by reading the questions and 
 replies, but will merely say that the answers demonstrate that 
 speech which may be thought very little of by the sensitive ear 
 of the teacher, is considered a blessing at home. None of these 
 parents desire their children to be removed from the oral 
 department of the school ; but, on the contrary, they all ear- 
 nestly request that their children be continued in this department. 
 Where there is any difficulty in deciding upon the value and 
 success of the articulation taught to our pupils, with whom 
 should the decision rest ? Surely with those who are nearest 
 and dearest to our pupils, — with those who have their interest 
 most at heart. Mr. Dobyns, I am sure, is right in referring the 
 question to the parents and friends at home. 
 
 In this report, Mr. Dobyns incidentally remarks that now, 
 whenever a new pupil enters the Institution, the request comes 
 from the parents: "Please see if you can't teach my child to 
 speak." He has, therefore, asked from the Mississippi Legis- 
 lature an increase of appropriation to enable him to employ 
 another articulation teacher ; and I am sure we all hope he may 
 get it. 
 
 There is another point in the report of the Mississippi Institu- 
 tion to which I would direct your attention. Mr. Dobyns has 
 collected and published statistics concerning the earnings of 
 former pupils, and he goes to his State Legislature with the 
 proof that the graduates of his school, so far from being depend- 
 ent upon the public for support, are actually wealth producers, 
 earning annually a larger amount than the State appropriates 
 for the support of the school. He proves that it is not a matter 
 of charity to educate the deaf, and demonstrates that the money 
 appropriated for this purpose is in the nature of an investment, 
 yielding profitable returns to the State. 
 
 I would urge all schools for the deaf to carry out this plan of 
 Mr. Dobyns, and collect statistics concerning the earnings of 
 former pupils. I would suggest that these statistics should be 
 so tabulated as to distinguish the earnings of the pupils who 
 could articulate and read speech from the mouth, from those 
 who could not. I have no doubt that pupils who speak have an 
 advantage in life over those who do not, and that statistics will 
 
14 
 
 demonstrate that their average earnings exceed the average 
 earnings of those who are unable to articulate. If this should 
 turn out to be the case, what an argument it would be to present 
 to legislatures in favor of appropriations for articulation 
 teaching ! 
 
 One of our main objects as an association is to help schools 
 for the deaf in their efforts to teach speech and speech-reading, 
 and I do not know how we could better accomplish that object 
 than by collecting statistics of this character. I venture to pre- 
 dict, we shall find that our former pupils who speak, even though 
 the}^ may be unable to read speech, earn more per annum than 
 those who are forced to resort exclusively to manual means of 
 communication ; and those of them who can read speech, as 
 well as speak, are still better off in life. 
 
 Mr. Davidson, of the Pennsylvania Institution, has suggested 
 another valuable line of inquiry. From a comparison of 
 numerous letters in his possession, he makes the assertion, that 
 orally-taught pupils improve in their knowledge and use of lan- 
 guage after leaving school. I would suggest the importance of 
 preserving uncorrected letters of your pupils during the whole 
 period of their school-life, and of keeping up correspondence 
 with them after they leave school. A comparison of letters, 
 written by the same pupil at different periods of time, would be 
 invaluable as a means of determining his progress ; and the cor- 
 respondence in adult life might also be utilized for the purpose 
 of collecting statistics concerning the earnings and general 
 success in life of our pupils.
