Editorial Comment
VENICE TIRES OF GONDOLIERlNG
(Portland

All old European cities have trouble in revising them
selves IN accordance with modern needs and styles, but
the vexations Of Venice are the most moving Of any that
have come to our attention. Winding canals are Of in
moon: but Venice. once the mistress Of the world, does
not want to be cast aside, Z half deserted city on stills,
visited only by tourists. But gondolas are poor substi-
forth.
So 1t is now prop sed to build a wide bridge to the
mainland. . cutoff on the Grand canal. and a street
car line that will run underground from the railroad
terminal to the far end OF the city.
THESE changes arc not so radical as to work any
pronounced change in the atmosphere, say the Vcne-
tians. and yet going here and there will be made much
simpler. The new bridge, 1t may be mentioned. is not
designed for motor vehicles, which must stil remain
upon the mainland.

Mother, you really ought to do
something about Tommy. He's per-
fectly awful. He looks like a tramp.
His knickers flap around his legs
and his stockings are all wrinkled. He
never cleans his nails and he chews
three sticks of gum at once, so that
l wouldn't be surprised if he got lock-
jaw one of these days.
Honestly, I'm ashamed to admit
he's my brother! And if he's going
to be such a mess l am not going to
walk back and forth to school with
him any more"
"Well, don't worry about that.
He's old enough to 60 by himself next
year."
ayes, but mother, he oughtn't to be
that way. He's a disgrace to the FAM
lily, and I'm surprised you don't care
more than you do"
"My dear, I do care, but I know that
it wouldn't do a bit Of good to nag
Tommy either about his appearance
or his manners. Wen just have to
be patient with him as ! was with you.
You've forgotten that two years ago
you were just as much Of a ragamuf-
fin as Tommy il right now.
"You know it's only within the past
year that you have learned to brush
your hair and clean your finger nails
without being told. Why, don't you
remember, you wouldn't even let me
buy you a dress coat because you
said it would be just a nuisance?"

younger brothers perfectly awful"
But for the sake of both children it is
well that sister should learn toler-
ance and that brother should not be

against all neatness and ~politeness. In

Singers Voice Gets "Cloggcd"
Question: Singer writes: II am to
sing at a concert and would like to
know what is best to soothe tn, throat.
While at home my voice is very clear,
but as soon as / face an audience it
gets clogged. This might be due to
a little nervousness, but please ad.
wise me what will keep it in rood order
for the OCCASION"
Answer: There is no special REM
edy to take which will soothe the
throat, as the substances swallowed
do not remain on the vocal cords. A
small amount Of menthol mixed with
honey sometimes gives a temporary
relief. It is also a good policy not
to use cold water, ice al OF any
other cold substances before singing
and it is also wise to not eat q very
large meal before your appearance. If
you have a tendency to catarrh you
should attempt to overcome this by
following a correct fasting and diet
ing regime.
Value of Greens
Question: H. F. D. writes: II
would like to know the value Of spin
ach, swiss chard, and brussels sprouts
from a medicinal standpoint"
Answer: Neither spinach, swiss
chard. nor brussels sprouts have me-
dicinal value in the sense of curing
disease. However. they are all aka
line forming foods and should be used
freely, with the possible exception Of
the brussels sprouts, which are gas
forming with some people.
Epilepsy
Question: X. B. writes: II have
%epileptic fits, and a few days before
a spell my hands and abdomen jerk. l
eat candy and lots of it, and l surely
suffer from these spells"
Answer: Intestinal poisoning is
the real cause Of epilepsy. Prolapsus
or kink in the colon arc contributing
factors. Candy and all kinds of sugar
must be entirely prohibited. Please

METHODS OF OVERCOMING


In endeavoring to bring about q
cure of stammering, it is important
to develop a self-confidence in the
patient. The spasmodic contraction
Of the throat muscle is based on men
tai conflict. Sometimes this conflict
is hidden in the subconscious mind, re-
quiring the services of a trained psy-
choanalyst to search out and discover
the hidden cause, that it can be re-
moved and worked out.
Stammerers r very susceptible to
suggestion, and it is wise to suggest
over and over again that the speech is
improving. Methods should be used
for distracting his attention, such as
having him sing or chant. The main
trouble is he puts his whole atten-
ton on his effort to avoid stammer-
ing. AS with one caught in quick
sand, the more he struggles to over
come his handicap, the more he be-
comes mired.
There are a number of systems of
speech re-education, but they are
based principally on four important
factors: relaxation, correct breath
ing, vocal gymnastics, and the use Of
phonetics.
The stamnicrer is always troubled
with rigid diaphragm, a hardening of
the abdominal walls, a clenching Of
the jaws, tongue and teeth, accom-
panied by a spasm of the laryngcal
muscles. These must all be loosened
and relaxed.
These children do not usually have
breath control. They will pant while
gulping in air, and the tendency is to
use the upper portion Of the chest
rather than the more wholesome
diaphragmatic breathing. They must
also be taught exercises to enable
them to control the action of the lips,
tongue and laryngeal muscles. They
should also be given exercises in us
ing the letters and syllables which
they find most difficult to pronounce.
There is a very good collection of
books now available to teachers, Civ
ing definite speech exercises which
can be used in enabling students to
overcome stammering. By using
these systems of cure, the whole at
| titude of the child changes and also
it's personality and social behavior.
There are many instances Of IA
nous men who have achieved success
in spite Of the mental agony and diff
ficulties associated with stammer-
ing. Among these may be mentioned
Aesop, Aristotle, Darwin, Demos
themes. Erasmus, Kingsley, Lamb,
Mcndelssohn, Moses, Napoleon, and
George Washington.

SALARIES RAISED
Rockefeller Board Gives
$50, ZOO to Aid Increasing
Pay of Educators.

Salary increases were received today
by members of the college faculty of
Howard University in accordance with
the gift of 100000 made recently for
that purpose by the Rockefeller Cen
eral Education Board of New York City

DR.. Johnson has sought higher pay
for the Howard University faculty ever
since he was inaugurated president of
the institution and the general educa-
ton boards 100000 donation was re-
ceived largely through his efforts.
In apportioning the additional salary
budget the university administrators
considered the longevity and meritori-
Gus services of the teachers. In giving
the increases today DR.. Johnson prom
lsed that efforts to raise the salary scale
in the university will be continued, and
additional funds for that purpose will
be sought. The present increase, he de-
clared. does not completely solve the
problem of low salaries. but it does pro-
vide substantial relief in many in
stances.
