The Managers of Lecture Courses
A few opinions from the encomiums received in 1904–5 will serve to present the universally favorable verdict: 

HENRY W. LEIPZIGER, Ph.D., supervisor of the lectures given by the Board of Education, New York city and the largest employer of lecture talent in the world, reported after Dr. Lee's first lecture in New York in 1904: A magnificent lecture.  Words cannot express my admiration for the lecture.  It was an intellectual treat such as we seldom have.  (Dr. Leipziger engaged Dr. Lee for twenty-two evenings in 1904–5 at a fee unusual in Board of Education engagements.)  CHARLES SPRAGUE SMITH, Ph.D., New York, Managing Director of the famous People's Institute, Cooper Union, lecture courses, engaged Dr. Lee for six evenings in 1904–5.  Dr. Smith says: Dr. Lee's lectures drew constantly increasing audiences … I heard nothing but expressions of warm approval … I give my most earnest commendation to the work of this great platform orator.

CHARLES D. ATKINS, Esq., Philadelphia, in charge of 111 lecture courses and Secretary of the American Society for the Extension of University Teaching, writes to Dr. Lee: You have the abilities requisite for arousing and enthusing our audiences more than any other man on our staff.  (Mr. Atkins gave Dr. Lee sixty engagements in 1904–5.)

PITTSBURG POST
—Among the impressive lecturers of the American platform three stand at the head of the list in a class by themselves.  These three are Frank W. Gunsaulus, Guy Carleton Lee and George R. Wendling.  Some audiences might give the precedence to Gunsaulus, others to Wendling, but many audiences, and with them we agree, would prefer Lee, this because in voice and presence he is the equal of Wendling or Gunsaulus and in intellectual ability and power of expression he is superior to either of these talented lecturers.
