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.

The North Carolina
Symphony and the
Belvidere Quartet from
Baltimore have performed
locally in the past as well as
local musicians.
Receptions for visiting
artists have been sponsored
by the local organization.
No one can deny that local
art shows during the past
Pilgrimages and Peanut
Festivals have been
received well and enjoyed
by young and old, Chowan
Citizens and tourists.
The Chowan Arts Council
is presently making
preparations for the 1979
Pilgrimage Art Show which
will be held on the Cour
thouse Green on April 21.
Not only has our local art
council been of an
educational significance to
the county, but also an asset
economically. Highlights
such as the art shows draw
not only the craftsmen to
our area, but also the
tourists and observers.
The Chowan Arts Council
is nonprofit organization
whose aim is to expand
cultural activities to all
ages.

Mumps May Affect The Unborn
All kids have to have
measles and mumps, right?
Wrong. 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. Adolescent and
