By Dr. Frank Crane Grenville Kleiser, w el 1 - k n o w n author and writer, gives some good advice about talking*. An immense amount of time and energy is constantly wasted, he says, by useless talking. Some of the essentials that he men. tions for a good conversationalist are as follows: The first condition of good talking is clear, well-ordered thinking. . If your thoughts are ill confusion your speech is liable to be non-effective. Talking should not be a verbal nor vocal contest, but a "mutual exchange of ideas. Monologues are tiresome. Don't give advice. Advice costs nothing and is usually worth what it costs. Don't exaggerate. It is easy to let your desires and feelings overcolor your yiqws. Give the impression of under statement rather than over statement and what you say will have more effect. "4 Keep your voice low1. A low voice Is not only an excellent -thing in a woman, as Shakespeare s?ys, 'but it JR. STopd for anybody. Many people trying to talk to. because they constantly bawl so loua. They, drown out .their opponent with sound. _ Don't tell unduly long stories. Don t make a reputation for 'being a "funnv" man. This will put you ih the class of light-.weights. Stpries are like seasoning or salt. They should be very Judicially intermingled and it is easy to gft ;joo many of them. .ja ... Do not interrupt another. Wait quietly for your tttrn to speak. . Don't relate lengthy personal experiences. V A thing may be interest% t0yjr^^ in utf5oUt *0ur- ' self, but it is usually boresome to other people. iDon't be impatient. fWhen you observe that your listener # not wish fee be convinced chango subject, v *,. , . r ? Speak clearly. not mumble. Conversation is more than idle exercise or ornamental superfluity. Ita purpose is to keep the other party amused and interested.' It is the wire upon which runs the current of your ^electric personality, R?you dont know how to talk, learn. Devote a certain part of your time to intelligent and diligent practice in the art of small talk It pays. * ? Jr ITEMS OF INTEREST Q i.
