sp..eh Should q. Worth While.

And when you have something to
say it's worth saying well. It's not
Just that you say words. You must
say them so they attract and convince.
We all use pretty much the same
words but they sound so differently
from the mouths Of different people.
There are books galore that are musty
with unuse because what they say Is
poorly said. II the thought had been
matured into small compass and told
In telling dictlon they should be popu-
lar works. And It's the same with
speech. Some men have good ideas.
but they take SO long to tell them that
people get tired. Sometimes they even
get weary before the man begins TO
speak. The world wants what you
know. but It isn't willing to waste time

Straight" Talk Best.

When your words count you don't
need to use so many OF them. It's u
pleasure for some people to talk.
other men talk under protest and be-
come the best speakers because they
seek the shortest way TO adequate ex-
preston. These men always get II
hearing because people know they Will
get the facts without orations. And
this is as 1t should be. Every man
should be able to express himself. He
can learn II he is willing to make the
effort. 1t may scare him half to death
at nrst. but he will soon find pleasure
In seeing his Ideas take action In
others. Whether you are ready
taIker or not you will profit much by
