A Defense of DANCING.

1t is not necessary in these days to
defend the claim of the dance to a
place among the arts. AS soon as we
have got rid of the Puritan prejudice
on the point land one may hope that
this no longer exists for the intelligent
part of the population) the claim is too
overwhelming to need apology, for If
we take art to mean the production of
beauty then the case only needs stating
to be conceded, while if we understand
it as self expression in some concrete
form we shall find that the dance,
which is kind of fusion of music,
painting and sculpture, is pre-eminent-
ly capable Of giving expression beyond
the possibility of words to the basic,
and therefore largely inarticulate, parts

Genesis of Life Insurance.

Life insurance originated in 1706 in
London. In that year there was form
ed the first life insurance company. 1t
was called the Amicable Society For a
Perpetual Assurance Office 1t was a
mutual benefit concern.
Each member, without reference to
age, paid a fixed admission fee and a
fixed annual charge per share on from
one to three shares, and at the end of
the year portion of the fund accumu-
lated was divided among the heirs of
those who had died, In accordance with
the number of shares each dead person
had held. Out of this company, with
It's crude and imperfect methods, life
insurance as it exists today has grown.
