Dancing As A Road TO Vice.
TuDE ROSE.

A Methodist preacher recently stat
ell at minister's meeting in Cleve-
land, Ohio, that a Roman Catholic
Bishop Of New York, in conversation
with Bishop of the Protestant Epis-
copal Church, made the startling
statement that the work Of the confess
sional revealed the fact that nineteen
out ofevery twenty women who fall
and are lost can trace the beginning OIL
their sad state to the modern dance.
Add to- this another fact: The CHIEF
Of police Of New York city reported
after long personal investigation
that nine-tenths Of altthe fallen womcI
Of that city date their fall directly O
indirectly to the ball room and thu
dance.
Will not mothers read the above t,
their daughters, and converse will
them about il? Will not every youn,
Indy cut out the above facts for he
scrap book, and show them to he
young associates? Will not ever,
Christian lady save them and use them
