Three years ago I was oper- ated on for a malignancy. The doctor praised me for coming in at the first sign of trouble. He said I was very wise and very lucky. He assured my husband that the operation was a com- plete success and said we shouldn't worry. He told me that if I got through five years without a recurrence I could consider myself cured. 'I have two years to go and my mind is never at rest. Every day I look for cancer symptoms on my own--hoping and praying I don't find any. At night I go to bed with a prayer, "Dear God, please let everything be ox." My children are still in school. My husband is not in the best of health. They need me. Every day is precious now.

Put Your Strength Behind Your Goals To Reach Success By ROBERTA ROESCH A female volcano named Sirena who's an artist and ex- singer believes that people who sacrifice and put their strength behind their aims can achieve the opportunities that take them to their goals. And Sirena who lives in East Meadow, Long Island, N.Y., speaks from experience. Her story begins with the crash of 1929 when her father was forced to send his family back to Italy. In Italy, too, mis- fortune hit the family. Only Sirena, her mother, and a sister survived. Later Sirena left her family at the age of 12. "After I left home I was helped by the Italian Red Cross," Sirena told me, when . I talked to her while she was . exhibiting her paintings at the Van diemen-Lilienfeld Galleries in New York. "One of my helpers was an opera singer," Sirena said, "so, ' with her encouragement, I be- came a singer, too. But all the while I sang in Europe, even during the Second World War, I dreamed of coming to America. "I worked day and night to get here and I went without food whenever I could to save - additional dollars." In 1947 Sirena came to this country and began a career as night club singer. While she worked as a singer, she mar- ried. Eventually she got the idea that she'd like to stay home and paint. ARTISTIC INTENTION "My husband thought that was fine,' she said, '"'but when I told him about my plans he didn't know I intended to paint 17 or 18 hours a day. Neither did he know I would isolate myself for five years in the basement and produce 1,000 paintings. ment were my training years," Sirena explained. 'I never stud- ied formally because whenever I approached teachers I was told I had something original and urged to continue to paint on my own." The "something original" that Sirena had developed into an art form called "marbleiz- ing." To paint in this form--as she does today--Sirena uses a palette knife to apply 10 coats of paint to a masonite board. Each coat must dry for one month before another coat is introduced. In between each coat, Sirena introduces pure gold. "When I felt ready to exhibit my: art, I selected 300 of my works, took them to places such as banks and theatre. lobbies, and set up eight different ex- hibitions," she said. Sirena saw that the public liked the work she was doing, and she opened her own gallery in East Meadow in 1964. In 1965, she went to Italy where us has a personal stake in the! ; |FOR THE BIRTHDAY | f & p Pure new wool fabrics were chosen for the three ready-to-wear stylings here.
