From time immemorial persons
have derived great pleasure out of
singing, yet it is sin prixinc how
few today practice the art public
ly. They may admit to playing a
fair game of bridge and a inorw or
less decent game l golf, but when
it com oh to singing they shake
their heads and say they can't.
The chief trouble 1m that so
many people would never dream
of going to a Rolf course without
clubs or silting iluwn to a brUlne
table without cards handicap
themselves at the start by trying
in sing with their mouths closed.
They seem to experience a certain
sense of shame ns though they
were doing something they did not
wish to be cauKht at. Two good
placea to practice pinging are bath
rooms where you are assured
privacy and church where it
doesn't matter so much, lioth lo

and In the other the choir, hut in
either i.caae you have a personal
sense of achlevemwnt.---( Baltimore

THE SPEECH

N neceptnuce spt-iOli such
i today lifts prolinbly never
tory of this country.
This was to be expected, for a man of the IloiO cr type has
never before been a candidate for (he Presidency.
Mr. Hoover represents an entirely new departure in Ameri
can politics. Ife has never held an elective office, be is neither
a lawyer, nor a politician; hi- is
business-man type, and be attacks
that standpoint.

suppose. "Ghost writers," so failed, are numerous and well

Tli is ineident is so well deserihed Uy that veteran Washing
ton eorrespondent. T. ft. B., in "The New J(epiiMi," that we
quote it herewith :
I know that no lest, than three apleiidld speeches were written
for him by throe perfectly splendid writers or so they think.
After reading them all Herbert threw them away und wroio his
own. His will be duller than any one of the three und he knows
it. The reason he gave was that while those other speecheH were
good belter than he could write still they were not Hoover
they did not sound like Hoover anybody would know they were
not Hoover and that If he was to get anywhere ut all In (his
fight. Hoover had to he Hoover, and particularly at the start.
That Ih all I know about this speech, hut it is true, and it has not
been published. The speech will be loiu? uul dull, hut it will he
Hoover every line of it, und it will be honest. Take this inc.f-,
dent uh a whole, and, while it may not have been very bright
politic!, It reflects more credit on Herbert personaly than any
that hus occurred Hince KatisaH City or for iiit(e a lime before.
T. It. H. is a radieal iconoclast of the Mencken type, has

Kxeellenl, all of them, but the distinxuishinp, outstaudino

No. The bin; thinit about this speech, to our mind, is the
way in which it reveals the character of the man. We don't
believe ninny people can vend this speech, or any considerable
part of it and not be convinced, that whether they like his
views on Prohibition or don't,
his scheme for farm relief will solve the farm problem or won't j
solve it: i
