Vindication of One's Self ; 2. Attack on Character of One's Opponents ; 3. Acknowledgment of Favors ; and 4. Tactful Praise of the Audience. I. PERSUASION THROUGH PERSONALITY BY INDIRECT APPEAL Persuasion through Uprightness. The value of up- rightness as a trait of personal character inspiring confidence and respect hardly needs to be stated ; but the proper methods of impressing this quality upon an audience may need explanation. It goes without saying, of course, that the speaker must have a... good reputation and that he must not be detected in any falsehood or double-dealing; but in addition to being actually upright, he must also act the part; that is, he must appear to be so. The appearance of uprightness, he never can have as a speaker if he slouches before an audience or refuses to look them steadily in the eye. To gain the appearance of up- rightness, therefore, in order to inspire confidence and re- spect, the speaker should stand erect before his audience, firmly planted on both feet, with shoulders squared, and an eye that never leaves the eyes of his hearers.
