An excellent sedative 1pr nervous
excitement is found in using the voice
at its lowest comfortable key. Imme-
date relief from suffering is often
obtained by dropping the voice from q
high pitch to lower tone. Teachers
whose pupils become restless and un-
ruly as they themselves grow tired
and nervous will find that low
pitched, quiet tone will relieve their
own nervous tension, and prove won
derfully quieting to their pupils.
This simple expedient is also use

prevent weeping. There are times
when person fears to talk lest he
break down and cry, yet must answer q
question or carry on conversation.
