THE CLOSE

We are nearing the close of the
Members Membership Campaign
and we are so very grateful to those
members who were instrumental in
getting one or more members. We
h ave a large number of members
who have not as yet sent in their
member
We ST Guild like to publish the
names of h e members who re-
sponded to our request, however, it
is so small, compared to our men,
bership that we are holding it up I'M
til later date.
We have some lodges that have
not added single member and we
hope and trust til al those lodges
will al least add one member before
the Convention. As we are checking
our records I could not help but ask
about outstanding presidents lik e
Mr.. Shellie Perkins of Shuuualak.

PREPARE NOW TO
SEND SECRETARY

Sometime ago l made an appeal to
the local lodges to send their secre-
tary to the Convention. We are de-
sirous of holding a meeting with all
of the local secretaries and we do
think that the Convention will be the
opportune time The lodge has time
to begin raising some extra funds
whereby to send the secretary to the
Convention. This will help the sec
rotary in particular and the o a
lodge in general. The better pre-
pared the secretary is the better rec
ords she will be able to keep for the
lodge. We know all of the lodges
desire to make progress and we are
going to determine this by those of
you who send your secretary.

Sonata In B nat. K. 3t7d: Allegro in

The Phillips Gallery picked up
yesterday where it left off last
season--with Werner Lywen and
Richard Dirksen playing Mozart
before a capacity audience.
The presentation was the fifth
of eight recitals by the two art
lists during which all the Mozart
works for violin and keyboard
are to be performed in the order
of their composition, a bold and
unsual undertaking.
The cycle can be pronounced
an unqualified success. Indeed,
from yesterdays superb concert,
it appears sure that Messrs. Ly-
wen and Dirksen will equal, If
not exceed, the high standard of
the previous four events, which
we're among the artistic tri-
umphs of the 1886 season.
Mr.. Dirksen's finished mastery
over the resources of the mag
niflcent Dolmetsch-C hickering
harpsichord he uses is little short
of phenomenal,
Mr.. Lywen, in top form,
matched Mr.. Dirksen's every
subtlety of phrase and delicacy

men were perfectly attuned, and

The harpsichord instead of the
piano added just the right
amount of spice. crispness and
definition to the proceedings to
make even the familiar music

HoW Sugar Helps

Sugar can make it easier for you to cut down
because it satisfies appetite faster than any
other food. Even when you are very hungry,
if you eat or drink something that contains
sugar shortly before meal you will find it is
much easier to be satisfied with less food.
A nutrition authority calls these hunger
pacifying snacks scientific nibbles."
And you can top off your smaller meals
with simple desserts that contain sugar. They
help you get as great feeling of satisfaction
from your smaller helpings as you would get
from much larger, but sugarless, meal.
The calorie savings you make with arti-
fetal sweeteners, on the other hand, are often
just paper savings" Since they do nothing

Important NerO Findings

This was borne out by a recently reported
three-year study of the diet experiences of
more than 300 overweight people. A leading
university in cooperation with the dietary
department of one of Americas foremost
teaching hospitals found that people who
gave up sugar entirely and used artificial
sweeteners lost no more weight than
those who used sugar regularly in their
diets.
Most of the people who tried the artifi-
cial sweeteners simply couldn't learn to
like them even after three years of use.
But just about everybody likes sugar. Isn't
it good to know that science gives US reasons
for enjoying the things we like?

Here's hOw the satisfaction you get from sugar
actually helps you save Galleries

to help curb an oversize appetite as sugar
does, they leave you as hungry as ever. You
may find you are actually eating more-and
more than making up the calories you
supposedly saved.

that lost pounds are less apt to be gained back
When the diet aIIows the same foods that tOouId
normally be eaten. Instead Of cutting out, you
simply cut down.

Perhaps you've heard people who tried arti-
ficialsweeienerssa 'They just don't giveyou
thesame sense of satisfaction that sugar does"
They've hit on something that is now rec
ognized to be very important in a weight
control program.
The sense Of satisfaction that you do get
from sugar is more than just an appeasement
of the sense of taste. 1t is fast, direct and
natural effect on the brain centers that help
to determine how hungry you are.
The New Approach
That is why the amount of sugar you have
become accustomed to using over the years
may be just the right amount for keeping
your weight constant. 1t is also one of the
reasons sugar has been taken off the don't
use" lists in many of the newer weight-control
programs being recommended by nutri-
tionists and physicians.
