There IL no greater revealer of
character than the human voice. 1t
is the first thing that strikes US in g
stranger, or in new acquaintance.
If it has that spontaneous ring OF
truth that no training can impart We
recognize it's appeal for confidence.
Some voices have the jar of falsehood
and are as full of warning as the
hiss of serpent. The unconscious
natural voice is to be regarded as the
index of character. To speal
promptly and positively is general.
