They have stammered more in the trying times since the 1929 business crash than they did be- fore. Somebody in every seventh family ‘stammers or suffers from some other speech defect. ‘These are the findings of Mabel Farrington Gifford, speech expert for the California Department of Education. Mrs. Gifford has had ple overcome stammering. and before that she treated and cured herself. Starts In Childhood Mrs. Gifford sees stammering as an “emotional” condition, rath- er than any lack of dexterity of the tongue and lips. That is why Americans are more frequently afflicted than Europeans, whom she describes as “more phlegmat- ic and resigned by temperament.” “The essential cause of stam- mering is a failure to adapt to life, and it can usually be traced far back to childhood,” she says. “Because of your immunity and dependence on others, you en- countered situations ‘you could not control, problems you could not solve. You therefore expres- sed your emotional: «confusion, your frustration, ‘in stammering.” An inferiority complex or an actual physical inferiority may set a child stammering, Mrs. Gif- ;ford observes. Shock, illness, a sickly reaction to certain foods and an inherited unstable ner- vous mechanism are other com- mon factors. Begin With Vowels The California expert uses the ~methods of psychoanalysis to get ABOUT WOMEN Miss Agnes Samuelson of Shen- andoah, Ia., is state school super- intendent and a former president of the National Educational As- sociation.

Prominent in that system is the “sigs’ prin- ciple.” After relaxing exercises design- ed to produce an “inner stillness, the pupil is encouraged to re- lease his breath in a long, naturai sigh. Then he sighs the vowel sounds of “ee,” “ay” and “ah” and then passes on to the other vow- els. Soon he is sighing the vowel sounds only in short sentences without trouble and is ready for the consonants — the stumbling blocks for most stammerers. First come such simply made sou “1” “f’ and “k.” They are 2 combined with vowels, and tt pupil is now in his stride toward perfectly normal speech. Other Speech Impediments There are a great many other parts of the treatment—e fill 140 pages in the text Gifford has written — but suc! simple practice, combined with emotional readjustment, basis. The Washington child welfare conference of 1930 reported 000,000 stammerers in the United states.
