TALKS ON HEALTH, PROPER ILv-
ING, SANITATION, ETC.
By DR.. W. A. Driver, $500 8. State
Street, Phone Douglas 3617.
Disorder Of Speech


Altho disorders Of speech are founu
principally in the young, adults are
often victims of the same phenomena.
By far the greatest number of persons
afflicted by speech defects is found in
childhood. Very young children who
are beginning to learn the art of talking
always show defects in the formation of
sounds and words. Under proper teach
ing they acquire facility of clear speak
ing at an early age. Some children are
the unfortunate possessors of one or
more defects of the organs that are con-
cerned in speech. For instance a cleft
palate or a hair lip would cause a
marked defect in speaking. Obviously
the remedy would be operation. There
is a condition of holding of the tongue
to the floor of the mouth by band; that
is called by the laity tongue tied. Even
that defect can be successfully treated
by physiological therapy or speech cul-
ture without operation. Articulation
exercises are valuable and curative in
most cases of the last named type.
In adults, speech defects that develop
after maturity are usually due to tumors
of the brain. Such are cured by appro-
pirate internal medicine and hygienie
measures. Wounds and skull fractures
sometimes are responsible for defective
he
treatment is surgical.
Suffering and stammering are always
decidedly embarrassing to both the
talker and the audience. The treatment
consists of proper thinking first and
later action of the speech producing
organs in harmony with the action of
| the mind. Teach the stutterer self pos
session, self confidence, poise or mental
equilibrium. Correct habits of speech
are acquired just as correct ha' its of
any other of the personal performances
Before the beginning of speech efforts
an examination should be made to find
out the general condition of the voice
organs and their accessories. All phys.
ical defects must be removed before the
articulation exercises are begun. In or.
der to get the sweet music of speech
proper posture, correct respiration, in
telligent articulation and clear phona,
tion are essential. Of course the mental
condition must be right. In order to
develop flueney of speech never shun
difficult words and passages but tackle
them with resolution and frequently
until they are absolutely mastered and
then hunt more words to conquer.

IMPORTANT ACT OF GOVERNOR
LOwDEN.
Especial to The Broad AK

Springfield, ILL.,, Sept. 13, 1917.-W.
E. Mollison and W. J. Latham, attor-
neys from Chicago, were in Springfield
today on mission of very great impor-
tance to their clients. 1t appears that
a colored man now in Jail in Chicago
is wanted in Mississippi to force him
to pay a debt and in perfunctory way
as usual and according to custom tn,
governor granted the request of the
governor of Mississippi for his return
for trial on a charge of obtaining money
under false pretenses. Messrs. Mollison
and Latham laid all the documents be-
fore the governor who referred them to
the attorney general who held that they
were not such as to justify a warrant
of arrest and so advised the governor.
The governor ordered a revocation of
his warrant and the man will be restored
to his liberty without further ado.
These attorneys were very proud of
their victory because of the fact that it
was 1HO Aiot IAihO ouCh d oIOP hdu o0Oh
taken under the present administration
and also because the beneficiary is
former resident of Mississippi from
which state the imprisoned man comes.
The distinguished visitors were enter
tanned at the lovely home of Lawyer a.
Morris Williams and afterward had
reception at the office of Attorney C. s.
Gibbs at which a number of the profes-
sionals were present, including Attorney
B. C. Clanton of the local bar.
