stammerins and Suffering

StAmmerlng ana suffering
Many correspondents have written
to me asking the cause and cure Of
stammering and suffering. Many
write and say that the harder they
try and the more they study about
it, the worse it seems to make them.
This should not be true if they
study under q competent instructor
and follow q few simple rules.
In the first place it must be
understood that stammering Is due
to lack Of control of the organs Of
speech, causing hesltancy and diff
Guilty Of utterance. There is a
variety Of opinion about the cause.
Stammerers themselves often at
tribute the varying degrees Of their
impeachment to states of the wind,
changes Of the moon, nervousness,
depression Of spirits, indigestion and
other physical debilities.
A nervous manner Of speaking is
usually associated with stammering.
This is the result rather than the
cause of the impeachment. If nerv-
BUSINESS was productive of stam-
mering, the number of sufferers
would be vastly greater, and it
would include larger proportion of
girls than Of boys, but this differ
ence is not noticeable. Of course,
any physical defect will render a
person nervous when the popularity
is made a subject of observation, and
it is in this way only that nervous
ness is associated with speech in
cases Of stammering.
All stammerers must remember
that breath is the very foundation of
speech. Some stammer because
they shut the breath off, and others
because they waste it. One closes
the CLOTHS, or little trap door in the
throat and holds it tightly closed
while trying to speak; the other lets
the air out first and then tries tt
speak without sufficient breath.
Stammerers try to speak in :
jerky, chopped way, and must learr
to speak smoothly and distinctly, al
lowing one word to almost run int
the other.
In most all cases of stammerin,
the head oscillates too loosely upol
the neck. The head should b,
neither thrown upwards, downwards
or sideways, and the chin should no
be dropped.
Most stammerers can sing, be
cause in singing the breath is stead

New York, Aug. 10.-Maude

no one seems ever to remember see

just what she looks like.
It is thought specter had passed.
Almost uncanny are some Of the
tales connected with her efforts to
vanish completely from the picture.
More than year ago she was re-

the filming Of Kipling's "Kim." "A

was supposed to have had . hand

every sailing and finally located the
ship on which Maude Adams was
supposed to take sail. Her name did
not appear upon the passenger lists.
But their sleuthings indicated that
she had taken an assumed name.
When they raped on the cabin door,
an elderly, fragile woman peeped out
and said there must be some mis-

Washington, Aug. 10.-This is the
forest fire season. Forest fire
losses average 100000 a day, &C.
cording to government estimates.
Use Of airplane patrols to spot the
fires before they get good start
has helped reduce the damage.
But the bugs are worse than fires.
There are said to be 100000 known
species of tree-eating insects and It
is estimated that they cause an an
nual loss Of $10O,O0O,O00.
The government has Federal
Forest Protection Board to fight
fires, bugs and other perils. The
chief Of the Forest Service, w. B.
Greedy, is chairman. The other
members are the heads Of the
Weather Bureau, National Parks
Service, Indian Bureau, General
Land office, Bureau of Biological
Survey, Division Of Forest Insects
in the Bureau Of Entomology and
the Office of Forest Pathology in
the Bureau Of Plant Industry.
Early reports from the forest
areas Of the west are encouraging
in so far as fires are concerned. The
worst damage has been where fire
touched areas so dry that control
was not gained until SOME seeding
reforestation was killed. Favorable
weather has helped the situation.
Lightning has caused numerous
fires in Washington state. but with
no large timber loss. Forest ma
terial is becoming dry in Oregon,
but losses have been slight to date
Idaho has had q few small fires,
with no more than 100000 damage.
Unusual dryness is reported from
California, threatening danger
which has not materialized, despite
nearly 400 fires, mostly in brush.

THE MEANING OF COMMUNITY

(MlnneapOIS JournaD
They know the full meaning Of community effort, in
the small towns Of the Northwest, the places where
everybody knows everybody else.
Take New England, N. p, for instance. The Het-
finger County Herald supplies the picture. There the
whole town got out and built dam across the Can
nonball river, providing spawning pool to be stocked
by the State Fish Commission Thirty men at time
worked in the water placing the dam and its embank
ments. Farmers built butte Of rocks, piling two
hundred loads the river banks. Dray teams were
donated to haul lumber. Boy Scouts helped with the
rocks. Roadmaster Peter Burns, Of the Milwaukee
Railroad, built miniature railroad to carry material
the cribs. minister lumber dealer druggist,
among others waded the stream welded sedges, drove
piled lunches, and joined the men in promoting sbig

And then somebody proposed bathing beach, and
further effort was applied. The railroad company
promised to supply trees for shade. citizen donated
an acre of adjacent land and more arranged for.
And now the neighbors-and they are neighbors, in
the best sense Of the wordare contemplating proudly

skating and boating, all because the whole town

National Forests Inadequate

There are 100000 acres OF idle
land in the country which should be
put to work growing trees, accord
ing to the American Tree Associa-
ton.
Charles Lathrop Pack, president
of the association, warns that we
cannot depend on the national for
ests to supply our future timber
needs, despite some sort Of a popu-
lar impression to that effect.
"The timber grown in our ma
tional forests" he says, "can never
supply more than = pitifully unim-
portant fraction Of the wood that
we need today and that we are
going to need through the future.
Much Of our national forest land
contains no tree growth and never
can"
Pack has given demonstration
forests to Syracuse University and
the University Of Washington, has
established a chair Of forest soil re-
search at Cornell and awards an
nual prizes for the best student
papers on forestry. He has sent
thousands Of pounds Of American
tree seed to help reforest European
battle areas and has distributed
more than 100000 forestry prim-
ers in American schools.
Owners Must Act
"Here and there few farsighted
timber owners are laying plans to
make their private lands perma-
nently productive" Pack says. "But
50 far this has been the exception
rather than the rule. More than q
hundred million wood consumers in
this country are still hoping that the
timber industry will voluntarily SEE
its way clear to practice Of economic

MAKING STATUES LIVE

In Honolulu there is man named Manuel who is
known to everyone 1.-THE statue worshper. Daily
Manuel appears before the statue of kamehameha,
Hawai's king Of long ago, and does obeisance. He is
awaiting the day when the statue of the great leader
will step down from its pedestal and move across the
street into the palace. On that day Manuel is going to
be ready to serve.
It is rather weary business, waiting for statue to
come to life. Manuel has sympathy. Indeed, we in
America ought to feel knship with him. In our
own way, we, too, waiting for statue to move
A good many years ago group of patriots in the
American colonies threw off the dominion of the British
king and formed a government. The nation they
established was, so to speak, monument or statue OF
the ideal of democracy. And since then Americans
have been trying to make it live; make it, only
magnificent, beautiful emblem, but living. breathing
TACT.
It hasn't been an easy task To begin with, other
tions ddr't like this idea. This American statue
too much VI beacon to their people. So they put
Ill the obstacles they could think of in the way. But
these obstacles failed Of their purpose.
Then there were hindrances at home mass ignorance,
seconasn, local jealousies narrowgauge politicians,
financial oligarchies All Of these things singy and
jointly kept the great figure Of Democracy from SPRING
ing into full life.
It has been long wait and hard battle. Now and
then the statue has famed into glorious activity under
the proddng of jackson Lincoln or Roosevelt.
And now ind then, unfortunately, it has lapsed into
placid immoblity unmoved by corruption in high places,
frozen by the apathy and indifference Of voters.
Yet we keep faith that some day, somehow, we
will make it live For the statue u.s. when you stop to
think about it, rather fine A great many young men
have died for it. great many earnest and women
have spent their lives to make it go. Innumerable hopes
and aspirations wrapped up in it. At times it has

people all over the world.
So we are waiting and hoping Like Manuel, when
the great day will be ready-ready to follow
the living breathing emblem Of democracy into
finer day.
