SPEAKING OF POISE.
Poise is something called self-confidence. The two go hand in hand at any
rate, and without self-confidence one's poise will be lacking.
When I was first asked to visit the motion picture theatres and speak to
my friends the idea was something of a nightmare to me. Never having
spoken a word on the stage in my life, every thought seemed to leave me
when I opened my mouth to speak publicly. No matter how carefully I had
prepared my chat, I managed to forget every single word that was in it.
That was when I first attempted personal appearances at motion picture
theatres.
Gradually, however, I became more at ease, and at present it is every bit
as easy for me to speak from the stage as it is for me to talk informally to
my particular friends.
Poise is a quality which both you and I desire. We may cultivate it if we
go about the matter in the right way. A clever hostess or even a clever guesr.
must have poise.
The first step towards poise is control over the feelings. Never does a well
poised person show dislike or contempt for anything. If one has a temper
one overcomes it or at least controls it.
Besides being at ease themselves, well-poised persons have the indescrib:
able faculty of placing those about them at ease as well. Haven't you ever
heard a person say, "Oh, she is a wonderful hostess all enjoy themselves at

to an automobile owned and driven
by Mr. M. S. Wiggs, occurred at the
corner of George streets yesterday
when the car collided with one of the
New Bern-Ghent Street Railway Com

The accident was unavoidable, say
those 'who witnessed it, and no dam

made a grab for him, but at that time
two other men shoved against him
