The

USE of the VOICE

This is the title of a pocket manual on breathing, reading, and speaking, by George B. Starr, of Loma Linda College of Medical Evangelists. It is just completed, and is going to fill a long felt want among speakers generally. Of its plan the author says:
"The author of this pocket manual searched in vain the bookstores of this and other countries for a pocket sized instruction booklet on the speaking voice."
"Many excellent treatises were found, dealing exhaustively with voice culture in its various features, but usually accompanied with so many selections for reading and recitation as to make them cumbersome and expensive. To meet this apparent lack, and to furnish, in a brief and comprehensive form, practical suggestions to speakers, this little booklet has been written."
As an indication of its scope, please note the following
