As Others Hear Us
ANY people who have heard their own recorded voices with horror will sympathise with this recent letter written by a clergyman to a London newspaper: "I have recently had the experience of having part of a sermon recorded by the BBC. This gave me the opportunity of hearing the voice that my congregation hears Sunday by Sunday. I would never have recognised it as my own. All sorts of queer solecisms and odd pronunciations fell upon my astonished ears, and the experience was both interesting and humiliating. I shall do my best to correct the more obvious faults. Would it not be an -excellent thing for every clergyman to hear one of his own sermons?"
