a GOOD picture palace story re-
n Gently appeared in French
review. At a Paris flicker
show" a film representing a surgeon
performing a serious operation was
being exhibited. The surgeon ad-
vanced TO the operating table, seal
pei in hand, his impressive face grim
and set. The only sign OF emotion
was a slight working of the lips.
Suddenly the audience was star
tied by uproarious laughter from
the back half of the hall. It did
not cease until the operation was
over.
And then the mystery was ex-
planned. The back part of the hall
was filled by a party OF children
from an institute for the deaf They
were all adopts in lip-reading, and
to them the working of the sur
geon's lips was not a sign of strong
emotion at all. In fact. the actor
who played the surgeons part in
the film had been cheerfully sing
ing to himself the chorus of an old
popular song. Were going to

Teaching deaf and dumb people
to talk, and to understand others
talk. by reading the lips, is COM
paratively a new idea, but II is
making rapid strides at the expense
of the old finger-talk system.
Formerly, a child born deaf was
doomed to speechlessness all its
life. But there is no reason why
people who are called deaf and
dumb" should be dumb at all.
Babies born deaf COO just as heart
lily as ordinary babies. Most deaf
children become dumb because they
never hear others speak. Till lip
reading was invented they never
got a chance of even learning that
there was such a thing as speech.

child Is taught to understand and
pronounce The child's attention is

Other letters are learned one by

cause they are too like others, the

Though years of study and prac-

Slow racing toward the skies:

As grander towers rise.
But, though we ever walk a-near

The cautious men and wise

And ne'er a peril rise.

Every Word We Utter Has Influence

Words are great forces in the
realm of life;
Be careful of their use. Who
talks of hate,
OF poverty and sickness, but sets
rife
The very elements to mar his
fate.
When love, health. happiness and
plenty hear
Their names repeated over day

They swing their way like answer
ing fairies near:
Then nestle down within our
homes to stay.
THERE are "a hours in the day.
Eight of these hours are usu-
ally spent in sleep. Two or
three hours in care of the person,
and various duties, duties which
keep us apart from our fellow
men.
That leaves more than half the
day, in which we associate with our
kind.
The conversation we indulge lin
during that time has it's influence
upon our own characters and on the
characters of those who share
in 1t.
Like Pebble Thrown Into Pond.
Every word we utter is like a
pebble thrown into a pond. 1t

til they reach the opposite shore
You see the ripples at first, and
perhaps imagine they only affected
the edge of the pond. But the eff
feet goes on when you can no long

has been influenced by that little
pebble which disturbed its serenity,
So it is with every word spoken.

The world is just beginning to

be more careful of what they think
and what they say.
What is your morning conversa-

pulse you have?
