MENTAL AWAKENING
BADLY NEEDED
Girls To Be Given One Minute
Longer To Present War
Topics Than Men

Yesterday Miss Anne Rothwel
stewart. OF Baltimore, a graduate Of
tbe Emerson College of Oratory, Bos
ION. Mass, and a member OF the fac
Blfy of ST. Johns Summer School, in.
aupurated her course in public speak
ing
She was greeted by a large and en-.
hnsiastic audience in Mcdowell Hall
many people besides those attending
the summer school taking advantage
of the privilege and opportunity to
learn under the able instruction OF
such an efficient and capable instruc-
tor
Miss Stewart emphasized the neces-
sity for public speaking, especially AT
this time, when the government is in
need of men and women to do its talk
ing and to present in the best possible
form, and the least possible time, the
important issues of the day.
"Wc are not only at war" she said
but we are mentally asleep We need
and must have an awakening from this
mental lethargy. America must be
awakened. and this is the one time and
our day Of opportunity
That one more minute is allotted the
women than the men speakers seems
TO be suggestive. but nothing to this
effect was limited A gentleman in the
audience was heard to remark he
thought TO allow only five minutes for
any woman 20 speak was not enough.
and he thought if there are -Four
Minute Men" there should be at least
tweuty-four minute women. But this
remark was only heard by a few and
was a side issue
Today Miss Stewart gave the second
Of her five lectures and instructions of
the course of Public Speaking. The
audience was even larger than that of
yesterday. She had previously dis
tributed literature on war subjects
written by the President. the Secre-
taries OF War and Navy, and other dis
tingu.shed people, asking that those to
whom therse were given read them
carefully and be ready when called
upon to present the gist of the sub
ject in five-minute speech. She call
ed on several for these speeches this
morning.
Miss Stewart is a woman of charm
ms personality, a deep student ana
keen observer of human nature She
has Won her way into the hearts of
her students and they are ready and
willing TO cooperate with her. She
is a wonderful asset to the faculty of
The ST. Johns Summer School, and
none can afford to lose the opportunity
her instruction offers. while all should
avail themselves of the privilege.
