"Placing tHe voice, is. of course, the most important thing about a singer, and the voice that is not well placed will not last, however fine it may be by nature. Some voices are naturally placed, but ordinarily it is the placing of the voice that is the most important part of the singing teacher's task. ''What a difference it makes in a voice may be gathered from the fact that a high soprano now before the public was a contralto when she went to her teacher. He realized the mistake that had been made in placing her voice and changed all that had been done and made her a soprano. "Well, these inen with the piping, squeaky voices have had their voices badly placed by nature. When that fault is corrected they will talk as thqy should.

"J have found this all to be the cer tain result of these exercises. I .have never known a case to fail. "Because' a man is unfortunate enough to have his voice too high in his head and to talk always up there instead of down in his throat is no rea son why he should go through life talk ing so.

The guard gave way and he was precipitated into the areaway below, a distance of about five feet. I i the fall his knee cap was dislocated and his back badly wrenched, and his body bruised. He was taken from the hole by passers and carried to the Webster, where he received medical attention. It will not be known for a day or sc whether he received internal injuries but it is generally believed that he did Attorney Fred Morrill has been re taind by Woodruff and if some kind o a settlement is not effected it is quiti probable that a damage action will be commenced.
