Children never practice so we'll" she
added, when they feel that others are

room in which they are studying"
Mrs. Stires also believes it is unwise
to permit young people with naturally
good voices, to sing too much when
they attain the "Self-consciouS age"
Voice Strain is Possible.
THE minute young girl becomes
self-conscious," she said, they are very
apt to strain their voices. Girls of the

they are older"

is now assumed by Katherine Homer,
who also accompanies her sister, Mrs.

is the twin sister of Anne Homer. a
young lady who has gone in for the
literary muse, and is now busy polish

Sister Watches Her Voice.
Miss Katherine. in addition to play
ing her sisters accomplishments, also
keeps close watch Of Mrs. Stires use of
her voice.
"You must not talk anymore this
morning, Louise" she remarked to Mrs.
Stires. You know mother never
speaks above a whisper on the day of
her concerts, and you know it is bad

Whereupon the older sister smiled
and agreed that Katherine was right.
