What You May Acquire.
Have you ever risen in tho morning
with a feeling OF actual happiness for no
reason at all except that your mood was
a happy one; and then. have you met
with a voice. grump or cross or whining
that has suddenly put out tho light OF
happiness. and aroused In you the same
disagreeable mood that tho voice sug-
gests? OF course you have, and isn't Il n
horrid to have your day OF Joy thus up
sctg
There IS so much I'm voice, in thel
way It is usedi It's power Is almost unlim-
tied because il is tho instrument on which
We express all the shades OF feeling, good
and bad, which come to the heart And
moro than that the note struck by tho
voice causes all other similar notes to
vibrate. 40 that II an angry word ls
spoken, anger vbrates IN all hearts that
are near enough TO respond.
This sounds suspiciousy like a sermon.
so ! must say quickly that Il Is really
only my way OF emphasizing the power or
the voice 80 that you win realize tho
Importance OF keeping II sweet In tone
What is called the American voice really
hurts the nerves OF tho car OF one who
Is not used TO IT, and know OF no good
reason why we should have Il. Our
throats are as good as any others. and
our cllmate-aithough much execratod--
Is surely no more rigorous than that OF
Northern Europe. so We can have good
voices II we only will
once In a while We meet a girl with
soft, sweet voice. and instantly that
makes MS realize how we have all been
using unnecessary force or how nasally
we talk. II a low-ptched voice is notice
able that means that our own and other
voices are pitched too high. And this A.
lustrates the point ! want to make and
which YOU must think about that Il is
tho fault OF tho ear and not OF the throat
that makes our voices high and nasal.
''You have 70 speak loud 10 be heard
above the others" pleads one for her.
self No, that isn't so. for people with
low voices are listened to more atten-
lively than those who are always scream
ing
This talk on voices is not a moral lec-
ture IL Is only a hint as 10 how my
girls may make themselves oven more at
tractivo and acquire grace that will
last long after beauty has faded.
Try TO keep a watch over your voice for
awhile and cultivate tho soft clear tone
BE useful where thou iiv'st, that so mer
may
Both want and wish the pleasing presenc,
still.
Kindness, great parts, and good plans ar'
the way
TO compass this. Find out mems want
and will.
And meet them there. An earthly Joy
