Over-use and wrong use OF the
voice through public speaking,
where the emotions are constantly
excited, is almost always the way
to bring about a nervous break
down. This breakdown may not
be demonstrated in any OF those
forms we usually associate with
nervousness. but is caused by dis
turbance Of blood conditions.

The nose, aside from its use to
moisten the air we breathe, con-
trolls the resonators. the sounding
boards OF the voice. These are
closely connected with the nasal
cavities.
The first thing TO do in commenc-
ing TO get a voice which will delight
and attract, Is TO see that all the
nasal cavities are kept clean and
clear OF foul air. Just because this
is generally neglected is why we
have those unpleasant rasping nose

THE harsh voices and strident

tion between the olfactory bulbs

and dust-tO the membrane of the
nasal passages is bound to irritate
these bulbs. The wrong use Of the
nose in speaking-and this is uni
versal in America-nOt only causes
this irritation. but, furthermore, is
a tremendous strain upon the
nervous system.

ence was a total subscription of $780,
600 to the second issue of Liberty
Bonds. Before the mass meeting ad-
journed subscriptions were being dou- ,
bled and redoubled and but few in the
audience failed to do the right thing
by subscribing for at least one fifty
dollar bond. The individual amounts
ranged from $50 to $1,000. c. d. Ad- !
kisson, who said that he had thought
he would never take Liberty Bond,
told the chairman to put him down for
$4,000. Clint Moore, of r. f. Moore
& Son. who said that his business had
profited as much as anyone else's in
Columbia, asked that his subscription
be increased from $1,000 to $4,000.
Mrs. Mary Grant made the magnif-
cent subscription of $4,000. Numer-
Gus other $500, $1,000 and $4,000 sub
scriptions were made But the ap-
plauding and cheering was as enthu-
siastic for little subscriptions of $50
and 500 as 1t was for the larger ones.
1t was a night of great achievements.
1t was manifestation of old Maury

Before the crowd entered the Grand

bers of the fire, and the crowd poured

H. o. Fulton chairman Of the Maury
County Liberty Loan committee, pre-
sided over the meeting. The Rev.
William B. Kicks said the invocation
in which he implored the blessings of
God upon this nation in its war for
liberty.
Before introducing the principal
speaker of the evening Chairman Full
ton referred to the visit of Secretary
of the Treasury McAdoo, former
Tennessean, who expects Tennessee
to stand out above other states in her
subscriptions to the Liberty Bonds,
Quoting Mr. .McAdoo, he said that
America might lose the first great bat
tie in which her soldiers participate,
she might lose her first army and still
the loss would not he as great as If
the nation fails to fully subscribe or
oversubscribe the Liberty Loan. The
, loss OF an army or battle could be
retrieved, but the moral reflection
upon the nation for its failure to sub
; scribe the war loan could never be
obliterated.
With characteristic eioquence and
vigor Mr.. Dining presented the Lib
erty Loan in such way that no man
or woman could fail to perceive his
: duty. He reviewed the glorious his

for liberty. He said that if we had
not won the revolutionary war our
fate would not have been as bad as If
we lose this one. for all the dominions
of Great Britain now fly the flag of
liberty. Although the South lost the
struggle against the North, he said.
there is no man today who will say
that he is sorry, for we now have
united nation championing worldwide
liberty. But if German militarism
wins this war the time will come when
our people will be oppressed as serfs
and slaves of the Germans.
When Mr.. Dining spoke of the
time when the war ends and American
soldiers carry the stars and stripes
down the streets of Berlin, the build
ing was almost shaken with applause
by the audience; and when he spoke
of the courage and sacrifice of France,

center of the audience and made an

begin their subscriptions. After the
ice was broken the responses were
'apid and soon total of 100000 had

size OF the audience, was a splendid
record.
