Senator. Walsh and a number of
other Senators and Representatives
have been invited to attend to-
nights match In order that they
may get frst-hand information on
the way the mat game is conducted
in this city without any central
board in charge Of II
Lohdos' Popularity Grows.
A number of members OF the
Greek Legation have also been ten
dered Invitations to see their coun-
tryman. Londos. perform. While in
Greece Londos was the most popular
of the scores OF wrestlers developed
there. and his popularity has grown
instead of diminishing since his in
vasion of America and Canada.
While Brockman Is not as well
known in this country as the Greek
Wonder" he is fast coming to the
front in the heavyweight division
and a number of mat critics. In
cluding Jack Curley. famous New
York promoter, have predicted that
he will so~n be in a position to
challenge the 47-year-old Zbysco

tn loosen up his muscles and put an
edge on his wind. The big Greek ap-
pears to be all that Northern re-
ports claim for him. He appears to
be in the best of condition. While
admitting that he knows little OF
the Firms wrestling ability. never
having met him or even seen him
In action, Londos. like every other
wrestler in the same circumstances
is confident Of victory.
The Gardner-Smith match should
rival the main bout for real action.
Gardner is just beginning to find
himself, while Smith has long been
recognized as one of the best wres-
tiers in the middleweight division.
Roth of these men have recent
~ thrown Joe Turner. both winning
in straight falls. so their meeting
tonight will decide which ranks

THE SPECTATOR
Don't Shout

On the contemporary stage the
singing of Nora Bayes and the die.
ton of Alice Brady are examples
r of that pleasing power of effortless
yet efficient enunciation.
1t is a curios thing that we are
sympathetic with the blind. which
indeed we ought o'be, while we
consider slight deafness as some
thing funny.
We ought to know that the
trouble with deaf person is, not
that he cannot heaf the sounds we
make, but that he cannot dis
tinsuish them.
We often discover that a person
supposed to be afflicted with deaf
ness hears things sometimes that
we do not want him to hear, and
we say that he is not so deaf after
all. We have been speaking in a
low tone of voice and yet he has
overheard US.
The explanation of this is, not
that he pretends to be more deaf
than he is, but that occasionally we
speak more distinctly than ordinar-
lily and 1t is these distinct utter.
ances that he catches.
The sum of the worlds pleasure
could be considerably increased u
people would give attention to the
voice. 1t is very trying to listen
to most persons. for they speak
slovenly
Whoever will cultivate a low,
clear voice, will pronounce his con-
sonants and not imagine that the
English language Is made up EN-.
stirely of vowels. and will not
emphasize two or three syllables
Of his sentence and let the rest
trail off into obscurity. will vastly
improve the amount Of satisfaction
which others take in his converse
ton.
In fine. speak lower and slower,
open your mouth. don't talk
through your nose and don't forget
the consonants, and you will have
less trouble with ceoeie who dent
quite catch YOU" \

but slowly and distinctly. Particu-
larly enunciate distinctly the end
of your words and sentences and
do not let them trail off into q

The same rule should be OBJ
served in speaking with foreigners
who do not understand English
very well.
In such a case most Of us raise
our voice. We are under the
delusion that we do not make
sound enough, but the trouble is
not our insufficiency of sound but
our lack of distinctness.
When the average Frenchman
or Italian or Spaniard talks to us
he falls into the same error. We
may have some knowledge Of these

What undoubtedly annoyed Le-

posing was the recollection that
she had posed for greater artists
than he. and that her fame was
rather greater than his own. Thus
