Noted as a talented artist, as well as an authority on and instructor in public speaking, Mr. Ashdown's ad- dress to the Kiwanians took 'the form of an oral lesson in the art of public speaking, as he outlined some of the important points to be fol- lowed, as well as stressing the value f the ability to express one's self in public. "More powerful than the sword, everything starts with talk," he pointed out, mentioning that talk starts fights and fars, urges, com=- Sands and directs all forms of acti- vity. : "It is the power of the vocal chord that raises man above the animal kingdom", stated the speak- er, "The Kiwanis motto is 'we build', the word was derived from an In- dian word, meaning to express one- self and how better can a man build than by the power of his voice. "Public speaking of effective pub- lic speaking is simply intensified conversation", averred the speaker, He proceeded to outline severaj car- dina] rules to be followed: 1. Each man has deep within himself some- thing he wants to say. When you get up to speak, have something to say and say it; 2 Be prepared. You must build a speech like you build a house and you must similarly have a plan for your talk; 3. Be enthu- slastic. The sincerity of purpose and abvious desire to serve can only be reflected by *the enthusiasm a speaker displays and without it, he can not expect his aundience to re- ceive his words with enthusiasm; 4. Good timing is essentiaal, Timing should be perfected in making an address, and 1s of outmost import- ance. In closing, the speaker pointed out, that history shows us what the power of speech has dne, from the early days {f the Rmaons, down to Hitler turned the world in chaos with his voice. THe mentions also |§ tory of such men as Winston Chur- chill and the late President ' D. Roosevelt. "Have something to say, know how yu are going to say it, be en- thusiastic abut it and when you have said it, stop", he concluded. The guest speaker was introduced to the meeting by Kiwanian Harold Armstrong while Kiwanian Drew Lindsay voiced the thanks and ap- preciation of the members for the thought-provoking talk.
