Synopsis
Excerpt from Constructive Dictation: "Plan Your Letter"
Most business men and women learn how to write letters through observing examples. The beginner studies the letters written in the office, especially those dictated to him; but the first and strongest impressions are received through the drill in the dictation class. It is important, therefore, that all letters used in the dictation class shall be good letters, representative of the best modern usage. It will be extremely valuable also if, while using the letters, the attention of the student can be called to those qualities on which the effectiveness of the letters depends.
There are two elements in all writing: language and plan, or as the teacher calls them, style and structure. Of these, style is absorbed by observing good examples; but structure, or plan, needs to be taught.
