ELSIE LINCOLN BENEDICT
FAREWELL LECTURES “People who imagine their nerves are diseased or out of order because they are nervous,” says Elsie Lincoln Benedict, “are unduly alarming themselves. Nerves have one great and important function —to respond to stimuli —and when we are what we call ‘nervous’ they are simply doing their work too well and too quickly for the well-being of their owner. Of course, this condition can and does make life sometimes almost unbearable, at least extremely difficult and unhappy, but it is a condition which can be overcome quite easily when one follows the right method.” Miss Benedict will speak this evening at the Town Hall Concert Chamber on “Nervousness, Weariness and Sleeplessness —Their Cause and Control.” This popular speaker is giving her farewell free lectures each evening this week at the concert chamber on “Making the Most of Yourself.”
