The Modern Aesthetic Waltz.

And now some OF the stiil-backed
society people OF New York are trying
to get corner on the old-fashiOned
waltz, and they have so far succeeded
as to work up compromise with the
Dancing Masters Association. The
professcd purpose of the reformers is
to externlinate the hugging accessory,
so dear to the heart of every olden-
time dancer. While the hugging ac-
compartment during the performance
of the waltz is to be held rs barely ad-
missible in the parlor, it is to be Ia
booed in all society gatherings where
terpsichorean exercises find place on
the evenings program. At its late
summer convention, held in New York
city, the Dancing Masters Associa-
ton solemnly ordained that the fol.
lowing five rules should constitute the
law and gospel regulating the dreamy
waltz, and all other dance movements
akin to it:
/. The gentleman offers his left hand
to the lady and she places her right
hand in it.
.. The gentleman closes his left hand
firmly around the lady's right.
3. The lady curves her left arm and
rests the left hand above her partners
right elbow.
4. The fingers of the gentleman's
right hand are clustered and merely
touch his partner at the waist line.
5. The walters now begin to revolve
i'll time with the music, virtually hold
ing each other at arms length.
Now in dancing, as in other matters,
it is one thing to enact laws and an.
other thing to enforce them. We all
know that the alluremcnts OF round
dancing are passing strange, but as
one light-hearted summer girl at on:
elbow puts it, "Their unrestricted in
diligence is not a whit worse than the
kissing parties among staid church.
going people" New York society con-
servatives might as we'll undertake to
restrain Augustus and Phyllis from
occupying the same rocking-chair
on Sunday night, as to restrain them
from the hugging establishment
while gliding through either an old
fashioned or an up-to-date waltz.
Young Americans are going to
dance as their grandfathers and grand
danced before them in the
old red schoolhouse or on the oaken |
puncheons of the barn floor.
