the sonorous quality of the tones of
chanting. Now to employ these
qualities of tone under the stress of
the various emotions necessitates an
adjustment of the vocal organs. For
instance, speak a few words and then
sing them without changing the pitch
or loudness and an adjustment of the
vocal organs will be noticed; and to
produce a sonorous sound the organs
must be drawn out of their usual pos

mi'sio as a iax;i'A;i:
(Continued)
Last week we discovered how both
pleasurable and painful sensations or
emotions caused muscular netion In
the physical being of both animals
and man; and also that the muscular
action Included the muscles of the
chest, larynx and vocal chords, mus
cles which are used to produce vocal
aound. And thus we arrived at the
principle that vocal sound Is the di
rect result of sensations or emotions
whether pleasurable or' painful.
All mu1c has the different charac
teristics of loudness, quality or tim
bre, pitch. Intervals, and rate of vari
ation. ' Docs mere vocal sound, used
in the ull important business of liv
ing, employ the same characteristics T
We shall bee.
Between the volume of sound giv
en forth from a blast of the luugs,
and the volume of sound given forth
from a blast of the bellows of an or
gan there Is a great similarity. As
the sound from the organ increases
with the strength of the blast from
the bellows, so the vocal sound in
creases with the strength of the blast
from the lungs. But since the vocal
sounds are produced through con
traction of the abdomen and chest
muscles, which muscular action be
ing caused h; pleasurable or painful
sensations or 'emotions, and the mus
cular action increasing with the in
crease of Intensity of the emotion;
it therefore follows that the Increase
of loudness to the vocal sound la the
result of the increase of intensity of
the emotion, as it strengthens the
activity of sound producing muscles.
For example, a Blight pain may be
borne silently, but as it increases and
persists causes groans and finally
shrieks. lxud voices indicate anger,
surprise or Joy. "Commencing with
apathy, we find that the utterances
grow louder as the sensations or emo
tions, whether pleasurable or pain
ful, grow stronger."
The qualities of voice are every
day occurrences and It will be no
ticed that under different states of
excitement the tones become more
and more sonorous. In common con-

Lincoln, Nebr., June 14 (By F.
C. Ay res and Hugh L. Cooper, corre
spondents) About forty medical
students, graduates of the Creiphton
Medical College, were examined by
members of the State Board of Sec
retaries in the senate chamber Wed
nesday, June 8, and If they all pas
will be given licenses to practice la
this state. A medical student may
have a college diploma, but before b
can begin the practice of his profes
sion he must have a license issued
by the state board of secretaries ot
the State Board of Health.
' In making up a Jury panel Im
Douplas county a few days ago, it
was found that a certain Juror waa
missing. A little investigation
brought out the Intelligence that thia
certain Juror was busily engaged in
making furniture at the state peni
tentiary. It Is the opinion of prison
officin Is that he will not be able to
serve, because work of this kind un
der the circumstances bars him from
participating in court deliberation
in the character and manner above
enumerated. Besides, the court wiH
likely have no objections for the rea
son that a juror situated as thia om
Is might be prejudiced In rendering
decisions, and would feel that them

Merton L. Cory bf Clay Center tem
porary chairman to open the state
convention at Mastlngs, July 25. Mr.
Corey was chosen two years ago for
this same office and his very eloquent
and able opening address at that time
made a deep impression on the large
number of assembled democrats at
the Columbus convention. The 1916
convention wil draft a platfbrm and
elect a new state committee together
with a permanent chairman who will
have charge of the state campaign,
Several prominent democrats are
mentioned for the place, among
whom are C. F. Langhorst, Caaa
county; E. P. Sprague of York. John
Byrnes of Columbus, and C. E. Har
man, present deputy food and oU
commissioner.
The board of equalization has re
considered its action to increase the
valuation of main line roads only, an
reported in this letter last week, and
on motion of Secretary of State Pool,
seconded by Auditor Wm. H. Smith,
distributed the raise over both
branch and main line.-t. This was
done in order that all counties
through which railroads pass may be
equally benefitted. Some of the
counties have no main lines, and oth
ers hare more branch line mlleaca
than i.'ain line. The raise will in
crease the valuation of the railroads
about $1,016,590 on the one-fifth
basis or over $5,000,000 actual val
ue. One or two members of the
board were for accepting the valua
tion or 1915, but this was objected
to on the ground that land values had
been raised both in 1908 and 1912,
and the railroad valuation had not
been increased since 1J09. Thia
contention was backed by Governor
Morehead, Secretary of State Pool
and Auditor Smith. Three being a
majority, the motion was finally
passed by a unanimous vote.
of the vocal organs; while reaching
either extremes of pitch Is positively
painful. Thus the pitch of the voice
varies with the action of the vocal
muscles. "Hence It follows from
our general principle that while in
difference or calmness will use the
medium tones-, the tones used during
excitement will be either above or be
low them; and will rise higher and
higher, or fall lower and lower, as
the feelings grow stronger." G.oans
of disapprobation, of horror, of re
morse employs a variance of pitch.
AiiKer exprebsea itself in hijjh tones
or deep mutterinps. The "oil!" of
ii.sioiiibhntent or delight begins sev
eral notes below the middle voice and
descends still lower. And so the
pleasurable and painful sensations,
through varying iuuacuiar activities,
varies the pitch ot the vocal sounds.
The above discussion on pitch ap
plies to the closely related character
istic of interval. Calm speech is
monotonous in intonation, while ex
citement causes the speaker to era-
ogical basis, the muscles set Into ac
tion first through pleasurable and
painful sensations and finally ending
in a more complete expression from
the emotional stimuli by vocal sound.
Herbert Spencer says: "Thus we find
all the lending vocal phenomena to
have a physiological basis. They are
so many manifestations of the gen
eral law that feeling is a stimulus to
muscular action a law conformed
to tbruout the whole economy ot ev
ery sensitive creature, not of man on
ly a law, therefore, which lies deep
In the nature of animal organization.
The expressiveness of thet-e varying
modifications of voice is therefore In
born.. Each of us, from babyhood
upward, has been spontaneously
making them, when under the vari
ous sensations and emotions by
which they are produced."
