WOMEN PRIMP FACES, BUT NEGLECT VOICES Expert Gives Fair Sex Speak* ing Advice. New York.—" American women may bo the best dressed In the world, but they hnve the worst speaking voices.’’ Mlm Clare Woodbury, who has specialized on speaking voices for a dozen years, and has coached many women In the tine art of good speech, mude this remark emphatically. Miss Woodbury described her avocation —acting, she said. Is her vocation, but she successfully manages two careers—thus: "Discovering and salvaging the speaking voice." She was herself discovered at her New Tork studio, tn the East Fifties, salvaging notes from lectures she has at various times delivered before colleges, dramatic schools and her own private pupils. These notes, she admitted, are being assembled for a book. “This book will be a labor of love and hate," cryptically announced Miss Woodbury, who, In spite of her Iconoclasm, proved to be a pleasant young person, a brunette of the athletic type, of Bryn Mawr background. Her own speaking voice has considerably more force than that usually prescribed by the diction teachers. “Don’t take my voice as it is now for a model,” Miss Woodbury begged as she began to talk. “It’s too dominating In quality. One gets that way telling other people what to do. It's a fault, however. The voice should be musical as well as vital. Assails Indifference. “You see, I love good speaking voices,” Miss Woodbury went on to explain. “I hate nondescript ones. And 80 per cent of American women are Included in my ‘hate’ category. "I cannot understand the Indifference of our women to how they speak I" Miss Woodbury marveled, not without real pathos in her tone. “Time and money are lavished on hairdressers, beauty culturists, modistes, dietitians. Jewelers—but not a penny nor a moment on voices! And no matter how beautiful faces and figures are, think of the Illusion smashed when a women openk her mouth to speak uncouthly. It’s so stupid of women, too. A well-bred speaking voice should be the first aid to social climbing and the country is full of social climbers. "In no o her country are women so indifferent to the Importance of their speech,” Miss Woodbury lamented. “Os course, the English language Is the easiest to desecrate. The speech of the most uneducated French or Italian peasant is not nearly so unpleasant to the ear as the slovenly sounds that come from many of our social leaders. English Is not naturally a musical language, unless well spoken. But what charms, what distinction, what real brilliance It has in the mouth of a cultural speaker! “The English language allows great individuality in diction," Miss Woodbury pointed out proudly. "But how few women take advantage of this! Most of them never even learn the fundamentals of projecting sound. Foreigners say we talk through out noses. Many of us do. Many more talk from the back of the throat. And we never use the mouth at all to help the sounds take form. Our general speech Is on a dead level, consummately ugly. I am not speaking at all of grammar, eloquence or pronunciation. I mean Just sound as formulated and projected. Seek Own Voice. “Every woman has a voice of her own, the same as a face of her own,” Insisted Miss Woodbury. “Most American women never find their own voice. That’s the trouble with so many systems of teaching diction. Suppose the student has a coarse, common speaking voice to begin with. The teacher makes her imitate a musical, cultured voice. That's all very well, but the student who Imitates will never have anything but a false voice. In moments of excitement or emotion she will go back to her original voice. "Finding your own natural voice is the first step in speech culture. Your real voice will be found to harmonize perfectly with your personality. This voice will really express you and not some one else. It will come out with ease. Every woman can find this voice for herself. Once she has it ♦placed’ her next step is to nurture It. develop It naturally and make It expressive by means of education and practice. We are all extremely sensitive to the voices around us. I know women who unconsciously affect the speech of the last person they have talked to. But this is only one phase of ‘false voice.’ “It’s ridiculous I All around are women reeking in riches— everything about them is expensive except the most expressive organ of their personality! And that’s cheap I” Sewer Gas Will Be Used by Town to Heat Plant Antigo, Wls.—lnflammable gases accumulating in the digester of the new sewage disposal plant for this city will be used to heat the building at the plant and also to raise the temperature of the sludge to the proper point for treatment in the disposal process.

RECITE BENEFITS OF COW TESTING Members Os County Cow Testing Association Hold Interesting Meeting Members of the Adams County Cow Testing Association met at A. J. Moser’s garage in Berne. Monday evening for their regular meeting, in spite of the extremely busy season, which necessitated the absence of several members. a majority of them were present. A new feature was instituted at this meeting in the form of answer to the roll call. Each member was asked to list some benefit lie has received from the Association during the past year. Ea«h member present gave at least one instance of profit. Four members mentioned the fact that they added more up-to-date equipment enabling them to produce more milk with less work. Three members mentioned the fact that they had white washed their stables whereas they had never done so before. An incomplete report revealed the fact that more than 20 boarders have been discarded. Nine members present declare they had sown alfalfa, sweet clover or ! soybeans during the past year entirely ( due to the fact that the importance of | these legumes had been brought before | them by the association work. Four j members mentioned that they were now feeding individual cows an amount ct feed proportionate to the milk given. It was brought out that I more milk is obtained from the same herd with less feed than before due to > systematic feeding. One member in ' particular brought out the fact that he had sold a number of boarders, the i association showing him the cows he thought best were often poorest. Due to the Association work of the past three years, his average butter-fat production has raised more than one hundred pounds witli a net profit of perhaps S4O more per cow. Other points were given all leading to the opinion that members have been well repaid from being in the organization. The monthly report submitted by Roy V.
