For the modern working woman,
the week end is a time of furious

means shopping for food, taking

cleaning house. Occasionally it
means going to the dentist or doc
tor; more often, getting new
dress or a new hair-do-and as
likely as not, it means ending the
day too exhausted to enjoy Sat-

on the cultivating of the speaking

you some advice found in "Wom-

"Do you strive for conspicu-
ously beautiful voice? Don't-for
a good voice is one which says
clearly and pleasantly what you
mean. Try first to relax. Clenched
fingers, stiff shoulders and neck
work havoc on the vocal cords, the
jaw, the lips and the tongue-'all
important to good speech. Prac-
tice reaching for the ceiling with
the top of your head, raise your
shoulders high, then drop your
shoulders but keep your waistline
in its lifted position. Drop your
head back and look at the ceiling
Open and close your mouth repeat
edly until your jaw and throat
muscles feel loose and relaxed
This is "A good beauty exercise for
a youthful throat"
