- Description
- 1. Sound waves travel at 1100 ft. per second. If amplified, sound can go round the world. 2. Talk is sound. It travels in waves. Even a friendly remark travels endlessly in ordinary conversation. 3. It can go across town in cars and subways... To fall on many ears... 4. To be picked up and amplified by the wrong people... In the wrong places. 5. It goes under the sea... To a German U-boat... And becomes a weapon in the enemies’ hands. 6. The end of a rumor... And the end of the Exeter.
