College Co-ed Needs Voice Culture for Charm
A young foreign actress who recently had great success on Broadway, was asked to give advice to girls seeking to be as glamorous as herself. "I think the average American girl is exceedingly attractive," she said. "Those you see in shops and offices are surprisingly well-groomed, and I like the natural look of the American college women. But I do wish they would pay
Braided Brim--more attention to their voices which are most unpleasant as a whole."
A foreigner is likely to notice a thing like that especially if she has come from a country of soft-voiced people. And her criticism is true for we do pay more attention to how we look than how we sound. But both impressions are valuable, so don't neglect your voice.
Think about this—become voice conscious, see in what way you can improve your speaking tones. Just

The most popular shoe on the campus among the Eastern schools is the plain calf shoe with no seams visible and laced on the side. It is a very comfortable and fashionable shoe and should be seen more on our own campus. Another shoe made popular in the East is the broogue styled after the women's shoe. It has a detachable flap over the lacing with red rubber soles or leather according to your taste. A shoe popular for campus or dress is the antique colored British broogue. It comes in the wing tip and also the box toe, with large perforations on each. The shading varies from antique copper to dark brown. Saddle shoes are still popular but are fading rapidly on the Hill.

is conservative, having smaller perforations and a thinner sole.
The more conservative person might prefer the cable stitched sock which is quite popular, camel's hair being the favorite shade.
These are but a few of the many styles of shoes and socks offered in the shops, but ones upon which the student cannot go wrong in purchasing. Incidentally, when you buy that next new pair of shoes, remember that the shoe store can supply you with just the right kind of cleaner to be used when you can't possibly make it to a shoe-shine.
