Same Principles.
For the same principles apply
in the work Of the actor or the
speaker as in that of the singer.
That which gives success and a
great reputation Is not following
carefully in the footsteps of some
one else, but after, perhaps, hav-
ing studied the methods and ways
of others, taking your own Unborn
genius, and striving to express or,
with proper general training, let
ting expression follow your ma
ture. Miss Morris tells story
of John Wilkes Booth that is
apropos here. She quotes Booths
manager.
HE often produces unstudied
effects at night. I question him:
Ibid you rehearse that business
today, John?' He answers: No,
l didn't rehearse it; it just came
to me in the scene, and 1 couldn't
help doing it. But it went all
right, didn't it?'"
This is the way Of genius, and

reaching, that I would have the
liveliest aversion to being held
responsible for shaping any one
else's opinion.
However, If you have the slight
est respect for your own mental
advancement or interest in the
worlds progress, you should GER
tainly read about what is being
done toward birth control. And
you should, as far as possible,
put your own prejudices aside as
you read, and open your mind
wide to the flood Of amazing facts
which are being produced on this
theme. For whether you believe
in birth control or not, a tre-
p1endous movement Is under way
to legalize it in this country, and
the arguments advanced cannot
be overlooked by an intelligent
person.
The sixth international Neo-
Malthusian and Birth Control Con-
ference was recently held in New
York. This very statement Is, IN
itself, most remarkable. Until
the last few years, in fact, until
1921, any one wishing to hold a
birth control conference hled it In
Jail, with only himself as audience.
Literature pertaining to this sub
ject was forbidden in the mails;
people advocating such practices
were socially ostracized.
In all other departments Of life,
however, we were shaking off
sentiment and religious influences
and instituting scientific analysis
and control. We no longer per-
mitted doting and distracted rela-
tives to spread epidemics by
nursing the sick within the home.
Quarantine was established, vacci-
nation made compulsory, the
board Of health invaded the
guarded domestic shrine, sent
grandpa to the pest house or the
clinic and fumigated the sacred
lares ct penates. Moreover, it
didn't wait for an epidemic to
happen before it took a hand. No
longer We're little Willie's defec-
tive eyesight, young Nelly's bad
teeth, and Papa's bad temper
allowed to function at will. The
school nurse, the school dentist
and various new police depart
ments began to operate. The
ancient saIlctity Of the home was
thoroughly shot to pieces. We
had found that we were paying
as heavy toll for stupidity and

MORE and more everything ls
AVA machined, and the conse-
quence of everything being ma
chined is that differences and
variations are smoothed out, and
life is flattened. The first step
toward machining Ia usually
taken through some form Of lab
oratory analysis. and this is the
case even when the process Is
applied to the human being and
his activities. So-calied tntelli-
gence tests" are laboratory prod
ucts. Recently Doctors Seashore
and Metfessel Of the State Uni
.versity of Iowa have tackled the
question of how two singers sing
ing the same song, one charms
and fascinates his hearers, throw
ing them into emotional agita-
ton, while the other leaves them
cold, though his singing Ia abso-
lutely correct according to the
I written score.
It needs no analysis, however,
to show that the second singer
sings like a machine, while he
first puts his individuality into
his singing, and the tones and
qualities that give his work it's
special charm. for the hearers
are peculiar to his mental ard
physical makeup.
It seems that the two doctors
got together twelve singers In
their laboratory and had them
all sing Annie Laurie" Photo

sented to the National Academy
of Sciences as a scientific analy'

things are Of much interest, but
IL they were never used by artists
for studying musical expression
they might only serve to increase
the number of machine-like sing
ers. They are, in effect, musical
scores, infinitely more detailed
than any written score could be.
But the greater number of de-

ly followed, the less the original
expression.
No great artist of any kind
ever closely initiates another; only
small artists do that. Each can
learn something from what others
have done, hut If all sang alike
all like Jenny Lind, all like Pa
repa Rosa, all like Patti, all like
Caruso- the machining process
would be perfected and art would
die. Not only does every bird
song differ among species. but
also among individuals. No two
human voices are precisely alike.
There is more than one way of
producing an emotional impress
sion.
In Clara Morris's Life on the
Stage" she tells of the discussions
that used to take place in the
greenrooms and behind the scenes
on the most effective methods Of
intoning and emphasizing words
and sentences, to bring out their
inner meanings and make them
more effective in stirring the
feelings or awakening the imag-

entitled, Personal Responsibility
for Health Sunderland hurls,
without the slightest reservation
or modification, the following
bombshell:
Everywhere about us is life
and we are part OF It,"
AS vice president OF the Amer
lean Educational Food Council,
Sunderland should give deep con-
sideration and mature deliberation,
we believe, before stating such
matters as these without any
sign Of equivocation. We predict
that the food world, whatever
that may be, will be absolutely
agog with controversy over this
statement.
PICNICS: o. E. Bradfute, presi-
dent of the American Farm Bu-
reau Federation, announces that
the organization will sponsor

in stimulating a great national, uni.

SCORE CARDS.: Kansas has
imposed a system of examination
on members of school boards.
Score cards are kept, showing
the members qualifications. They

card, a good common school edu-

read a standard farm paper and
at least one magazine of recog-
nized worth, be in favor of spend

Men are better judged by what

When you do the right thing,
you spoil the effect If you brag

Be thankful for failures. They

What an improvement it would
be If badness attacked the chin

Ability works it's way to recog-

We made the shooting of mad

So you of the ''sly'' brds-a fair and square
as long you watched, but ready to put
at the slightest chance.
Now there is great difference between being "sly''
being opportunist
The opporunst is always ready to pick up the reins
whenever and wherever they dropped by the other
fellow and carry things along
But the opportunst necessarily sly dishonest
person.
1t is wonderful thing to be constituted that you

wonderful to be ready for opportunity when you
meet it face to face
The sly person is always planning something which is
not expected and taking advantage Of the unwary put
the thing planned.
You think of eavesdropper when you say sy-some-

moment to give him unfair advantage.

Still it becomes n obsession.
