DOUBLE TWIST HANOSHAKE
It Is Very Effective IL You Happen to He
Accustomed to 1t.


Accustomed to 1t.
The newest handshake is called the
double twist" 1t was born at the
horse show, but it is such a complex
performance that it is only just reach
ing perfection. The title is more than
unattractive; it is ominous, and the
uninitiated may well beware of it.
Concerted action is as necessary TO shake
a successful and artistic double twist"
as it is to make an effective stage fall.
This is the way the shake works:
Two persons meet and clasp hands in
the ordinary way Then, still holding
hands, there is perceptible pause of a
few seconds, and each is apparently in
spired by a sudden impulse to make the
greeting more cordial and less conven-
tional. As though by an afterthought,
the two draw each other closer and give
each others hands hearty squeeze. a
very perceptible interval between the
clasp and shake is Indispensable to the
proper carrying out of the new greeting.
That is where the trouble comes III.
If one shaker understands this and the
other doesn't {, bumped nose, bruised
head or twisted back is liable TO follow
the sudden jerk. But if both understand
what might well be termed the glad
hand, things are somewhat equalized
and nothing more or less than healthy
vibration of the whole body results. -

One noticeable fact in counting the bal
lots was that there were few only
that did not count, which shows that
the voters now very thoroughly under
stand the Australian system. Last
year quite a number were thrown out for
not being correctly marked. There were
nearly fity men who tried to vote at the
Red Jacket polls who could not do 30
because they were not registered.
AT LAUMUM.
There was a great deal more interest
taken in the Laurium election than at
Red Jacket for the question OF sewers or
no sewers was made an issue. Those
opposed to the sewers carried the day.
The three trustees who were in favor OF,
or were supposed to be in favor OF con-

beaten. President Lathrop was also
