M. Lappin that almost indicates the presence of another kind of fear, He is afraid of being put to the test. He feels he ought to make a contribution to the discussion, but he fears lest he shall fail to rise to the occasion: Well, of course, whatever lies be- hind his condition, it is undoubtedly due to an inferiority feeling which he ought to get rid of once and for all.

My advice would be to try and de- velop a little more confidence in your- self. Read up on the subjects to be debated. Store your mind with facts. Prepare yourself beforehand so that you will know you will be able to speak with confidence when the time comes. If you do that, then you will sible. Yet I like public speaking. Of course my nerves have never been good, for 1 used to be troubled the same way over examinations when I was in college. Do you think I should give up trying to speak in public or is there any way to overcome this condition ?" -Captain James Haizlip's speedy plane, its wings removed, being hoisted aboard the Zeppelin Hinden- burg at Lakehurst for shipment to Europe. Haizlip, his wife and his son were passengers. I would not give up trying to speak in public. I would continue to take my place in the debating society and make a determined effort to overcome this nervous condition. It can be done! My correspondent is suffering from what is commonly known as "Stage Fright", and this may be due to any one or more of a number of different things. He may be too anxious to make a_good impression and win the commendation of others. That very anxiety would tend to make him over- tense and produce exactly the condi- tion which he" describes. If he would concentrate simply" on making a worthy contribution to the discussion and never mind the kind of impres- sion he makes, I am sure that would help to eliminate that nervy feeling which comes over him. On the other hand, he says he was troubled the same way over examina- tions when he was in college, and be able to tell yourself it is foolish to get all worked up before the time. the discussion until it begins. When it begins, listen carefully to what others have to say. Compare what they say with what you have gather- ed and frame your contribution ac- cordingly. And, above all, forget your- self and think only of what you are saying. NOTE: The writer of this column is a trained psychologist and an au- thor of several works.
