In the mind strument note that, in he probably not suppose coast, ly recognition, of some, newspaper are an in- fashioned with inaccuracy and employed with stupidity. So com- fortably satisfied are these critics that newspapers are deliberately or otherwise incapable of printing the truth that the phrase “ if you can believe what. you read in the press” has beeome an estab- lished’ escape clause for the gossip which they have nevertheless found interesting enough to pass along. Im spite of all this, newspapers continue as the greatest medium ever discovered for purveying information of public interest and exchanging views of public concern, Had their abuses been as fertile as the imagination of their crities, they would have perished long ago of incompetence or corruption. The truth is that a newspaper does not grow in callous disregard of its readers. It grows because of them. The newspaper that is most sensitive to the needs and wishes of its community is the news- paper that will survive. To be this sensitive means that those working behind the printed page must have more than their fair share of exposed nerves. Perhaps it was with this in mind that the bishop in England called for a little sympathetie prayer. It's Not What You Say... HE Caspar Milquetoast type of soul (and who isn’t at times?) who envies the aplomb of the accomplished platform orator May take heart from an admirable little pamphlet just publishde. It is written by S. H. Wood. Published by an organization bearing the allur- ing name of the Nationa] Association of Girls’ and Mixed Clubs, Mr. Wood’s pamphlet is a veritable adventure in the art of speech-making. On how to prepare a speech, how to use notes, what pockets it s permissible to put hands in, how to be concise, and how to manage the voice and govern the ges- tures, the author provides adequate answers. The author also denounces the practice of tak- coneeived in cunning, inmail ‘by the Post Office Deparsiient, ovawa| don’t you také’a trip up ing spectacles off and putting them on while orating without reference to any purpose these aids to sight were invented. But it is odd that Mr. Wood fails te mention that it is useful, when speaking in public, to have something to say.
