Perhaps William E. Mason is the most
successful Illinois campaign spoakor of to
day. lie is naturally a story teller, mag-
nctlc and of as great a drawing power as
a circus. ills anecdotes are told with tho
unsound naturulncss of an actor reciting
his lines, and to tho campaign )crowds he
is a Joy and a delight. Mr. Mason has in
a marked dearco the Lnfailing attribute of
asuccclsful public lalkor. lie is at ease
with himself and his audience. ‘
“I well recall my first praciical lesson
in public speaking," said Mr. Mason to a
Times-Harald mm). "It "was given me 29
yours ago. I was makin speeches with
J udgo Morse, a candidate for the bench.

Don't try to emulate Demosthenes or
Cicero, or any 01 those boys, as I see ypu’ro
