Gl0rUying Yourself

As soon as she has eliminated hard, nasal tones from her voice - simply by learning to keep hel tongue, throat and jaw relaxed and to pause for breath between sen- tences-the woman who is deter mined to speak charmingly resolves to improve her diction.
 Voice teachers agree that the per feet speech for Americans is not marred by colloquialisms, ooes not pretend to be British or even slight ly so, and is simple and unaffected Of course.
 CAN YOU OR
 CAWN'T YOU?
 Fancy speech just never Is pleas ant. Don't say q retired" instead of T went to bed" Or T desire to purchase" when you mean I want to buy" Or I attended the the- atre" instead of T went to the the- a4e" or T went to a show" Or, worse, yet "au revoir" rather than goodbye"
 If you are a broad A addict, do be crnsistant. If you say "can |" with hard, flat A sometimes and with a broad, British A other times, you'll be laughed at. Unless you were brought up in broad-A- speaking family or have been us- in" the broad A since you were no more than ten, better forget about 1t. It just doesn't come naturally to most Americans. And naturalness is the keynote of effective speech.
 Perfect speech is unaccented. It does not immediately classify the speaker as Southerner, 6 mid- westerner, northerner or g New

QUESTIONS and ANSWERS
 Girth Control

Kindly state the relation between waist measure and life expectation. You gave this some time ago but we can't find the item. (H. c. F)
 Answer-"For every inch by which mans waist measure exceeds his chest measure subtract two years from his life expectation" Paunchy gentlemen who would like to finger longer on this mundane sphere will find practical help, if they are ser ious about it, in the booklet Rules for Reduction" for copy of which send twenty-five cents coin and coin and stamped envelope bearing your address.
 How Much Sunshine VitamIn!
 This is odd. Tn the same issue we find your assurance that there is no danger of getting too much vitamin D and the warning of U. of Illinois physicians that too much vitamin D could be dangerous un- less administered under medical supervision. . (E. F. B.
 Answer-There is no scientific or clinical evidence that too much vitamin D-whatever that may mean lever has any harmful result. Mil- lions of people, especially youths, get insufficient daily rations of vita min D. For over year I took ten thousand units of vitamin D daily as supplement to my regular diet I experienced only excellent health. I nibble couple of three thousand units with breakfast every morning. Children require actually more vita min D than adults of mature age. The U. of Illinois professors simply repeated legend which has grown out ofan arbitrary inference drawn from areas of overcalcifications found in organs of an infant that had received enormous doses of viosterol for many months.
 Salt-Poor Diet
 Brother, cardiac condition, dropsi- cal. Treatment recommended is diet free of salt. Can you give list of of foods free of salt? GA. O.
 Answer-Surely the physician who prescribed the salt-poor diet can best advise your brother. 1. Cook should add no salt to food. 2. Patient should add no salt to food. 3. Use only sweet" (unsalted) butter and unsalted cheese. 4. No sea food; but some fresh water fish may be taken. 5. Fresh meats, but no corn ed, timed smoked meats.

 Suits show slightly longer jackets, well-fitted through the waistline, with or without collars and revers but stressing pockets as the decor ative motif par excellence. Slot pockets, pouched or pleated pockets in twos, threes's and four's, often are underlined by braiding or piping. Sleeves are exceedingly simple.
