------ -------- m-- Rew, October 10, 1925 WINNETKA TALK 45 Invite to Courses in Spoken English and Public Reading Classes in spoken English and read- ing will be offered in Community House by Mrs. Frederick Dickinson, it was announced this week. This course will include not only practice in public speaking and the collecting of extem- poraneous material for reading and speaking, but will give special emphasis on voice production, and its correct use, and breath control. The class for women will begin Thursday after- noon, October 22, and the course for young men and women on Tuesday evening, November 3. "In this day when so many women are speaking before groups of people as never before, such a course comes as a real opportunity under Mrs. Dickinson's direction, to those inter- ested," a Community House worker points out. "We are often impressed by the fact that it is not alone what is said that carries with an audience, but how it is said. The quality of the voice and the ability to be heard are important factors in success in this line, and also are useful in ordinary conversation." "This is a ten weeks' course, given in response to requests. For further information call the office of Commu- nity House, or Mrs. Frederick Dick- inson, Winnetka 648."
