ana piano concert by the church
music department.
A year has passed, devoted to
study at McPhail conservatory
since Marilyn has appeared in a
concert in the valley and it was
with great interest that the au-
dience noted her growth in matur-
ity, in sensitivity and deeper un-
derstanding.
Her program numbers were so Sc
lected as to display her versatility
and she gave brilliant perform
ance all the more creditable due to
the extremely hot weather which
added to the demands made on
her skill by the ambitious program
itself.
Beautiful flowing tones, clear-cut
technique and an individuality of
style and Interpretation marked
both her violin and piano playing,
making her entire concert one
which was highly enjoyable as the
applause OF the audience indicated.
Her piano numbers included: a
Franck prelude, aria and finale
two Chopin compositions, Liszt's
Hungarian Rhapsody No. IS, two
Mcdowell compositions, Ocean
Thou Mighty Monster and "Idyll"
OPP 80, the Chabrier "Bouree Fam
tasque" and the amusing and de-
scriptive, "A Caudle Lecture"
(SherwoodD, the entire concert con-
Guiding with the beautiful finale
from the Emperor" concerto in E
flat tBeethoven) in which LaVerne
Zavala played the orchestral parts
on the second piano, adding much
to the audiences pleasure.
For the violin group, the opening
number was Lalos Symphonic
Espagnole", and the second group
included: "Nocturne" Op. 70 Chop
in-Auer), "Rondo" (Spohr, "Fras-
quita' Gehar-Kreisler, with the
second movement of the melodious
Greig Sonata in F major played as
a special request.
Dorothy Armstrong, accompanist,
deserves highly favorable mention
for her sympathetic accompani-
mentS.
During the intermission silver
offering was taken which will be
used by the church choir for the
purchase of needed supplies.
That Marilyn has real possibili-
ties was evident to all who heard
her Thursday night, and it will be
of considerable interest to those
who are watching her career, to
learn that she has won a scholar
ship in piano at McPhail and a par
tial scholarship in violin, no small
achievement in view of the many
talented students which attend that
school.

For Rheumatic Fever

normal lives. Rheumatic fever af-
fects the heart as tuberculosis does
the lungs. It may appear with no
special indication save q feeling be-
low par, or with definite symptoms
Of pain In the joints or serious heart
failure. Rheumatic fever should be
looked for particularly In children
and young adults, and proper treat
ment should be instituted to avoid
the serious consequences OF this
disease.
Deceptive Disease
Rheumatic fever In It's mlldeSt
form sometimes may be overlooked
by even well-trained physicians, or
the severity Of It's symptoms may
make the diagnosis obvious. It Is
q disease that tricks physicians into
thinking II Is all gone and then re-
ours In full force as result Of
something which seems as slight as
q cold or q mild sore throat. 1t Is
q disease that may affect the pa
tient 30 little as to pass unnoticed
in It's primary stage and then show
itself at some later date In q heart
so severely damaged Is to be dis
covered In o cursory school exam
nation. Rheumatic fever often takes
people away from their active lives,
sometimes for as long as two years,
before they are able to carry on use
full pleasurable lives again.
Since the consequences Of the dis
ease can be 30 serious, Doctor Breyer
emphasized the three measures
which can protect against It, Proper
treatment during the acute phase
increases the chances Of complete
recovery. Early symptoms for which
proper medical supervision should
be obtained are persistent and trou-
blesome joint pains or milder grow.

on staple goods.
It also follows the leveling off OF
food prices that had. risen slowly but
steadily until the meat and butter
roll-backs In June. One objective
Of the campaign Is to repulse the
pice advance by two points to the
level Of last September ordered by
the Pesident in his hold the line
order.
In many communities all civic,
business and labor groups have COM
bined to carry the campaign to q
successful conclusion. The cooper
alive campaign was tested in June
under the sponsorship Of the Young
Young Disbursements Club Of New
Orleans. During one week 5000
block leaders Of the OCD called on
10000 housewives to secure sigma
lures and distribute pledge symbols.
The following week 100000 pledges
were added by churches, industries
and labor Of the city.
Splendid Contribution
Archbishop ]. H. Rummel Of New
Orleans pronounced the campaign
in his diocese "a splendid home
front contribution to the war effort
which will not only benefit the war
program but viii also result In bet

The drive has been undertaken
differently in vaious cities and will
be announced in each community
by a local committee. The Office
Of Price Administration is cooper

The second measure which Doctor
Breyer recommended Is prolonged
bed rest In q child who Is known
to have rheumatic fever, even
though he seems perfectly well: this
Is Of great value in protecting q
heart weakened by the disease. IN
the third place periodic check-ups By
q physician Of any child previously
affected are necessary.
No Definite Cause
Although no one can demonstrate
the exact cause Of rheumatic fever.
there is a definite disastrous rela-
ton between streptococcal infections
and rheumatic fever. This means
that the rheumatic child should be
kept away from crowded places
where infections are acquired and
when found to have an infection Of
the nose or throat, should be put
to bed Immediately. On the other
hand, Doctor Breyer emphasized the
danger Of being overwatchftil, some
thing profoundly to be avoided lest
the child become q cardiac invalid.
Long convalescent care in bed Is
important for any children who ha
