Why Many Radio Technicians Train

MAKE THEM LISTEN TO YOU

[graphic]

Can you stand on your feet in a sales conference, a business men's luncheon, or a committee meeting and make a speech which holds your audience spellbound? Or do you envy the other man who, with ease, convinces the audience against their will, brings tears to their eyes, or makes them shake the building with laughter? Shrewd, brainy men with supreme ideas and judgment have been totally eclipsed because a less gifted man has cultivated one accomplishment-that of a clear-cut, confident, convincing speech.

HOW YOU CAN HAVE THIS VALUABLE ACCOMPLISHMENT The new Grenville Kleiser Mail Course in Public Speaking, Personality Development answers this question. Grenville Kleiser, famous speech specialist, has trained thousands upon thousands of men and women in every part of the country to become successful public speakers. And he can train you without requiring you to step outside your home.

HAVE you ever tried?

Have you ever attempted even the least bit of training, under competent guidance?

Or have you been sitting back, as it is so easy to do, waiting for the day to come when you will awaken all of a sudden to the discovery "I am a writer"?

If the latter course is the one of your choosing, you probably never will write. Lawyers must be law clerks. Engineers must be draftsmen. We all know that, in our times, the egg does come before the chicken.

It is seldom that any one becomes a writer until he (or she) has been writing for some time. That is why the Newspaper Institute of

Copyright 1941, Newspaper Institute of America

America bases its writing instruction on journalism-continuous writing-the training that has produced so many successful authors.

Learn to write by writing

Newspaper Institute's New York Copy Desk Method starts and keeps you writing in your own home on your own time. You receive actual assignments, just as if you were right at work on a great metropolitan daily. Your writing is individually corrected and constructively criticized by veteran writers. You rapidly develop your own distinctive, self-flavored style-undergo an experience that has a thrill to it and which at the same time develops in you the power to make your feelings articulate. Many people who should be writing become awestruck by fabulous stories about millionaire authors and give little thought to the $25, $50 and $100 or more paid for stories, articles on business, fads,. travels, sports, recipes-things that can easily be turned out in leisure hours, and often on the impulse of the moment.

Let us help you test your native abilities. Our interesting Writing Aptitude Test will do it. It's free entirely without obligation. Send the coupon today. Newspaper Institute of America, One Park Ave., New York. (Founded 1925)
