How To. Dispose
Of Christmas:

Trees Properly

Following the Holidays, the
question is asked: ~What should
be done about the Christmas
tree?~ A proper answer demands
consideration of two important
particulars: the danger to children and the exposure to buildings.

Glenn E. Thom, Fire Marshal
of the City. of Detroit, advises
first, to remove the tree from
the house immediately after the
Holidays. Then keep it in the
YARD until: your collection day

A deep ~breath sad correct

Mays, who has a wide experience
as a speech teacher.

~Learning how. to- use~ pea

speech,~ she says. ~Most people

wave or hide their hands, We
must learn control in
Hands should be used between
the shoulder and hips ~while
speaking except when one is
demonstrating height or -depth.
The art is in being conscious
of your hands. but. unconscious

Because | a good joke opens
the door 'to- -understanding~ between people, she urges that a
student add a joke to his collec-.
tion of stories just as he adds
a word to his vocabulary. ie

~Introduce a joke so that it
fits inte the conversation. Be
sure you know it well. Too often~
a story teller will mull the last
line of miss the crix of the
story. As you: me using a story

be discarded and new ones added

~Can you smile when you talk?.
Some people need to learn to...
smile. Always take time to ~smile.; -
A smile is most magnetice,~ she
explains. 4

- As a check on one~s which

cans of speech.~ These are: Can
