.~. .- -~-'- Con fiential By Est. Camrthor Lumn.y - SO TO SPEAK Always interested in the sub- joect of aur English language and how it is written and spck- en, we have derived keen en- joyment froru mading a bock called 'Se To Speak"I by Elisa- beth Ferguson van Hesse. This came ta aur attention tbraugb the kindncss of Mrs. L. M. Ktith af Toronto who, we are glad ta hear, reads this column. We have aiten spoken here of the wonderful and abused me- dium of speech, and Mme. Keith kindly sent "Sa Ta Speak" down for us ta read. The author was Mrs. Frank- lin Roosevelt's speech teacher. We corild almost stop right there, couldn't we? For anyone interested in the spoken word this is a fascinating book, and a very practical one. Breathiri exercises and variaus physical exercrses are given, and these have a groat effect on aur speech, though few ealize it. Breathing particularly. Most af us take little shallow scoop breaths. sa that wo run out oi breath balf way thraugh a sen- tence and the sound is distort- ed. Also, Mrs. van Hesse tells us, we are only hahf alive when we breath se sballowly. Many other things enter into having a pleasant vaice and ponouncing aur words cloarly and distînctly, with pleasing inflection. But this is encour- aging, that barring some de- formity of tbmoat or mouth, anyono with proper instruction and practice cari achiove gaad speech. But how mnany trY? In an cru when mc many arersing ta their feet, wberr the main event at s0 many gatberings is a speech, we could well do with mare and more emphasis on Engllsh and gaad speech, ra- ther than les&, whicb is the case as far as formai education is concerned.. Even the uninformed, the uneducated, respond ta the ail- ver tangue cf great speech, cf beautiful words. Did net Win- stan Churchill move the whole Englt.h speaking world during the War with his great comn- mand ai language? Ho is, . o- yand daubt, the greatestt cm- tom af this ago, an d bis speech- es will live long after him. as will hi. writtcn womds. To-night we listened ta ex- cerpts from some ai bis most famous speeches on the radio, and were thmilled again. Our world will be sadly poorer when bis wit, bis mind and voice are ne more. What Sir Winston bas achie- yod t. on a hlgb plane indeed, but it is possible for al ai us ta make much botter and rich- er use of the wanderful human git ai speech. if you would like to know ho'w ini some mea- sure, get a copy of Mrs. von Hesse's book, published by J. B. Lipplncott Ca. in 1941. A GOOD QUESTION Before leaving the subi oct ai speech and speaking, we, think an abeervation rnade in the Royal Bank ai Canada'. manth- ly letter last March is really pertinent.

STRATFORD AGENDA A groat revival .of interest in Shakespeare in Canada is daing xnuch ta give people an appre- clation af fine language, for Shakespeare was a master. And if y'ou have nover read bis Son- nets, or have net read tbem for a long time bore is English at its mast beautiful and exC- pressive. Perhaps you saw in the press last week that next season's plays have been chosen for the Stratford Festival. Shakos- poaro's "Jullus Ceasar" and "Merchant af Venice" and a limited number of ropeat per- formances of "Qedipus Rex" are on the agenda. Frances Hy- land will be Portia In the "Merchant" and Frederick Valk, a Czech actor, will play .Shylock. Lamne Greene will play Brutus in "Jullus Ceasar" and Donald Davis ai the Crest TheatVe in Toronto, Mark An- tony. Douglas Campbell wil take the part played by James Mason last year in "Qedipus Rex"l. Ahl these, exccpt the Czoch actar, have been in pré- viaus Festivals and have donc extremoly well. Attending at least one cf the plays at Stratiord is a thrill which no anc ahould miss. Af- ter ahl, people came from al over the United States, and hore t. Stratiard anly a hop and jump away from us. The livoliness and perfection cf anc of these performances is soine- thing no one who has attended will ever farget. And everyone who bas been wants ta return, se we can see the Festival growing larger and langer yet. We have picked out aur play already, and just hope we can get there. This year something new bas been added, in the way of a Music Festival, and this will no daubt attract considerablo at- tention. It laoks as if Stratiord is gomng ta be a busy place for many yoars te corne. Will those poor ladies' cf the Stratford churches get weary cf sorving meals for weeks on end? We hope thoy are taking a good rest during the winter months. They deserve it. Guest Quartet Thrills Crowd At Youth Rally A Yeutb for Christ Rally was held on Saturday night in the Town Hall.

Girls Learn Finer Points of What to Wear The "Prim and Trim" Club girls met at the home ai Mrs. R. Webber, Bowmanville, for the second meeting cf the "Wbat Shal1 Wear" projoct, on Tuesday, November 23. The tapic ai this meeting was 'Line. Colour and Texture ai Clothing ta Suit the Personal- ity and Figure." A persan with good propor- tiens, the girls leamned, ha. a wide choice ai lino since she bas natbîng ta bide. But a taîl, thin persan or a short, stout persan will use lino to make herseli look shorter or taller, respectively. Bright,' intense colours, aùd also light colours are flot a good choice for the stout figure, -b.- cause they tend ta increase ap- parent size. Instead, a atout.J persan should choose soit duli colours, especially dark ones, ta blond into the background, and thus seem ta reduce size. Texture must be chosen care- fully also. Very heavy mater-i ials will add bulk, and crisp. materials lilce organdy or, tai-' feta stand away from the f ig- ure, making it look larger. Shiny materials like satin draw special attention to size, also. The best choices for the atout persan. then, are duIl surfaced fabrics ai medium weight thatj faîl smoothly, in straight tolds.'< Distinct figure types and' methods ai hiding defects were discussed. It was decided that short-waisted girls should wear narrow boîts of uncontrasting material, blouse the same col- aur as skirt and hip length jackets. The short, stout girl can look taller by woaring vertical linos from neck ta hem, nar pKver- tical stripes 'and skirfflich are neither too full nor too tight. A tail, thin girl may use wide boîts, horizontal stripes and gathered or flaring skirts. The next meeting will be held on Dec. 7 at the home of Ingrid Conway. The Home As-. signmnent is ta find pictures of two garmients with lines to suit the wearer, and rail cail will be ta show these picturos and explain why the linos suit.
