Stammering, Its Cause and Cure eBook

Care for Ladies:  My lady-assistants, as well as Mother Bogue, will see to the comfort and enjoyment of lady-pupils.  Ladies have their own dormitories in a separate portion of the building and find their stay a most enjoyable one.

A Reflection of Ideals:  The congenial home-life at the Institute, the minute attention to the wants of the students, the care given to women and children, the solicitude for those who are ill or who for any reason need special attention—­this is but the reflection of an ideal—­that ideal is to make the Bogue Institute, not only in instruction and results, but in every way, just what I would have liked to have been able to find when I was searching for a cure for stammering, more than twenty-five years ago.  The comforts, the conveniences, the atmosphere of helpfulness—­these things all contribute toward your quick and certain success—­and that, I may say, is why we have them.

THINGS YOU WANT TO KNOW

Deposit Surplus Money:  As a matter of convenience to those who bring with them extra money, we grant them the privilege of depositing it in our safe.  Other valuables may be left for safe-keeping when desired.  If the students prefer, they may deposit money with one of the city banks.  Pupils should not carry much money with them; they may lose it.

Pupils’ Mail:  Relatives, friends and others addressing letters to persons in attendance at this Institute should address all mail to students:  “c/o BENJ.  N. Bogue” to avoid delay in delivery.

Foreign Students:  It will be necessary for those who speak foreign languages to learn the English language before they will be admitted to this Institute.  The instruction is only given in English, but persons of all nationalities can be cured if they have the proper knowledge of the English language.  When once cured in one language, persons are cured in all languages, however.

Companions for Pupils:  Parents, guardians or companions may accompany small children or others, when they wish to do so.  It is entirely satisfactory for those accompanying the pupil to be associated with the children during treatment.  They may room together, if desired, or they may secure adjoining rooms.

When You Leave for Home:  When necessary, we secure railroad tickets for our young pupils, check their baggage and place them safely aboard the proper train, when they leave Indianapolis for home, and otherwise take especial and careful interest in having them properly started homeward after their stay with us.

Rich and Poor Stand Equal:  Claim is made that this is one of the most commendable features of the Institute.  It is not so in all institutes.  Fine clothes and freedom with money are not the test by which the student secures his standing, but by his earnest, faithful work and gentlemanly or lady-like conduct.  It is inward worth, not outward adornment and display of wealth, that wins friends and gives the student a place on our roll of honor.  The student is judged by what he is, and not by what he has.
