restricted style which is so much
a part of modern jazz, “Walkin’,"
“All The Things You Are” and
“Bag’s Groove," are a few of the
tunes given top treatment by the

A typical modern jazz set, this

Does your health reflect your

Ann when the troubie-sf ..kcr
attains his goal, his success is
frequently crowned by a physical
break-down. Statistics prove? that
sickness can be the direct result
of emotional disturbance. Con
versely, radiant health is almost
invariably accompanied by an op
timistic and untroubled frame of
mind.
To deny that all lives can run
smoothly all the time would be a
distortion of fact. Put one of the
most vivid ste-ns of maturity is
the ability to think constructively
and with calm tolerance, come
what may.
We have only to look at the
modern world of science to dis
cover that the problem without a
solution is indeed a rarity, Com
pare the utilization of atomic en
ergy, the conquest of outer space,
with the problems we are called
upon to solve in cur daily living.
The latter, you will agree, rmim
j into insignificance.
