If she has real talent, she will learn regularity in practice, poise from appearing before an audience and inspiration and perseverance be- cause you have given her teacher or teachers who inspire these qualities"
 "Nearly all our very popular ballads tell a small town story which the singer from the small town can interpret better than the city bred one. Cradle Of Love- which I am singing this year, tells real country love tale.
 We've got just six little chicks, And a tiny little fence around 'em, One little pond and toad,
 Six little trees, all the year there's
 evergreen around 'em.'
 "This means so much more to the girl who can picture this story from life, her own life. Many girls think they must study in foreign countries and sing foreign arias which they cannot feel or understand and neglect entirely their own homev ones. Give me American songs every time"

 She considers the small town church choir one of the greatest training schools for sin,,ers, and backs up her belief by declaring that if the humble beginnings Of many of our most noted singers were traced they would be found in small-town church choir. !, Help Choirs
