People with sensitive ears will be glad to
learn that no woman will be permitted to
speak at the biennial convention of club
women, to take place at Milwaukee, in
June, unless she can prove to the satisfac-
ton of the platform committee that she
has a speaking voice." AS at least three
thousand delegates are expected to be pres
ent at the convention much interest has
been taken in vocal chords of late. and the
evolutionary members of clubs are looked
upon with envy by their fellow-members,
as more likely to figure on the Milwaukee
programme than the weak-lunged writer's
OF papers, no matter how brilliant. Club
women cannot be called the ''shrieking sis
terhood" with any justice. for few of them
have any voices at all. They can make a
good deal of noise when several of them
speak at once-the favorite and customary
way-but in most instances it is as easy to
understand what each one is saving when
they speak simultaneously as when each
member has her say undisturbed on the
platform. Sorosis boasts two or three wom-
en- who can be heard from the back of the
room. where SoroSiS delivers itself OF its
startling original ideas. The S. p. 8. is
given to squeaking voices and accents"
which are better left unheard, and the d.
A. R., as a society, is more aggressive
than impressive. vocally. Many women
take a few lessons in elocution before de-
livering their m2iden speeches, but stage
fright usually has a deterrent effect on the
graceful, easy delivery of inpassioned
periods. It has remained for the new Cen
fury Club. of Wilmington, Del. to take the
much-needed initiative in having a speak
ing-voice class as a regular part of club
study. In this class no effort is made TO
teach evolutionary effect-which is only an
educated form OF hysterics-but rather the
proper use of the voice. This does not
mean straining the voice to a high. nerV-
Gus pitch, but its projection in a most nat
ural manner to the remotest corner of the
room. There are some club women who
could not be made into effective speakers
In a thousand years. and they are wise If
they confine their club ambitions to other
lines and snatch whatever consolation they
may from Mrs. Humphrey Ward, who said,
"If you can't speak your mind. it is some
thing, at any rate, to possess one" For the
unhappy day is past when the platform
woman who goes through a little panto-
mimic performance-and says almost moth
ing-will receive even insincere applause.

that not even worry will make a woman

come. At night this dropping of the mus
