Developments in Speech Therapy and Veteran Hall Construction
An essay on developing speech and self control through posture and vocal training discusses teaching a girl named Jeane to form sounds and project herself with poise. The piece links muscle development to character, cites dancing and rhythm as aids, and likens neglect of basic skills to dangers from modern upheaval. A second item notes the start of a WPA project, the Umatilla Veterans Hall, with cornerstone laying and a 75 mm shell containing veterans histories, to serve as a meeting place for local veterans groups.
