(Its 1936. A young couple with two young daughters have come to a local Doctor asking for help)


Man's Voice: Dr. Covington we just want her to be happy.

Woman's Voice: Dr. what can we do for her?





Dr. Charles Covington: Carla can you bring some tea for the Hardships please?

I'm going to ask your daughter some questions and run some tests with your permission.

(A few hours later)

Mr. and Mrs. Hardship I have done my best to examine your daughter. I've done everything I can think of. She has passed every test. I find no reason to treat her at this time. I suggest finding her an outlet. She seems like she's eager to learn.


Harrison Hardship: Do you have any suggestions?


Dr. Covington: Perhaps music? Perhaps both of your daughters could take up an instrument?


Helena Hardship: But Dr. we had to save up all we had just to come here today. We really can't afford the instruments nor the lessons.


Dr. Covington: Carla can you come in for a moment?


Carla Covington: Yes Charles?


Dr. Covington: Have you completed the lessons you were giving to the Ashwurth girl?


Carla: Yes. I have.


Dr. Covington: Do you think you could take on the Hardship girls? Let them have a go at the violin?

Say starting with your Tuesday session next week. Does that work with you as well Mr. and Mrs. Hardship? We'll have Hagatha and Hadrigal at 10am. We'll consider it part of the treatment. And we'll settle up at a later date....


(All agree)
