The Arts INVEST NOW... m. COLLECT FOREVER The Chowan Arts Council has worked quietly for many years to offer artistic enrichment to local citizens. This being “The Year of the Arts”, the council is striving even harder to offer a wider variety of activities. Very few Chowan citizens are aware of the role the local arts council has played in recent years - trying to offer an awareness of the fine arts and folk arts to people of all ages. In the past, this group has offered enrichment classes to the youngsters of the county. These classes strive to offer a variety of educational experiences that cannot be offered in the school system. Dance classes were organized under the direction of Marcia Gordon four years ago and have steadily gained students, not only from our county, but. also from surrounding areas. Mrs. Gordon’s recitals have been enjoyed by the public and have proven the success of her endeavors. The C.A.C. has aided the Choral Society financiallly by helping secure music folders and music. Art classes have been offered to citizens of all ages by local artists. Jaycettes Meet Edenton Jaycettes held their monthly meeting February 28, at the Edenton Restaurant with 14 mem bers present.

There are now excellent vaccines that will protect our children against both kinds of measles and against mumps. Rubeola (Measles), mumps, and Rubella (German measles) were commonplace among small children for centuries. Most children had relatively mild cases, recovered without problems, and thence were immune. But not all of them. Rubella and rubeola both can cause serious com plications in the occasional child. Rubella often is so mild that it is overlooked, but if acquired by a woman in early pregnancy, the disease poses a direct threat of heart defects and other defects to the unborn child. Live virus measles vaccine is safe and ef fective, says the American Medical Association. Age of vaccination should be 15 months, or later for children who miss out at this age. It also should be given to children who have received the killed virus measles vaccine. In the event of a neighborhood epidemic, your doctor might decide to begin immunizing children at as early an age as six months. Widespread use of the rubella vaccine could eliminate the reservoir of disease among children, who are the major source of infection of pregnant women.
