Permit to call attention to some fundamental principles. '" . . : 1. Stand at least 12 inches from the microphone and aim the voice over the top or to the side. The speaker can establish visual directness by looking to the right and then to the left of the Instrument. Never turn your face from it when talking. 2. Try and eliminate distracting mannerisms, for example, fiddling with eyeglasses, twirling key chain or charm bracelets. Sometimes certain platform postures need eradicating. 3. Develop a friendly conversational voice, but it will have to be raised to its highest power to carry in large auditoriums. Don't be afraid of pauses, since they will ' give the speaker a chance of pace. 4. Don't slouch, pull at a chirt collar or pat your hair. "Never apologize for the speech it insults the listeners.
