HAVE YOU EVER HEARD A SNEEZE BROADCASTP One can imagine the devastating effect of an involuntary sneeze into that delicate instrument, the microphone. It is not generally known that announcers take special, precautions to prevent sneezing and coughing on their part being broadcast. As the announcer sits at his table waiting for the signal to announce the next item be has a small control box before him. When the item is finished a little red light flickers and the announcer switches 011 the control. Until he does this nothing can be heard from his room. Should he wish to cough, sneeze or clear his throat when announcing, it is tho work of a moment to switch off the control, and then switch on again when tho paroxysm is finished. We have no doubt also that a number of announcers in common with other intelligent people take the precaution of always having a bottle of Baxter's Lung Preserver handy to cut short tho course of any cold. " Baxter's " is absolutely indispensable to speakers, singers and all who must keep in good voice. " Baxter's " is the best friend of all sutferers from sore throats and chest colds and gives wonderful relief to bronchitis and asthma sufferers. All chemists and stores sell "Baxter's."
