On Dancing

Rev T. III. Adams of the Church of
Christ, Grand Rapids, said this in his
Sunday sermon;
"The shameless girl who gave the
dance of Salome before Herod might
have been good girl, even amid her
surroundings. But she chose the down.
ward path. She was shameless be-
cause she allowed herself to dance in
the presence of drunken, debauchsd
crowd of sensual men. She possessed
beauty, perhaps intelligence, and may
have had many accomplishments, but
the bloom of innocence was wanting
and She failed TO possess the only char.
acteristic that makes young woman
beautiful, the bloom of innocence The
child had many disadvantages, but one
of the most serious was that her mother
was wicked woman. Her father,
Philip, wicked man. The counsel
and advice so much needed in the be-
ginning of every career was missing.
When the opportunity presented itself
the mother urged her TO ask for the
head of John the Baptist. Because she
hated him for denouncing the immoral
life she and Philip were living. And
John lost his head for telling the truth.
do not pretend to sum up all the mis-.
chief done at balls and dancing parties
and even parlor dances, for this is only
one other form of sin and very fasci-
mating one. But from this record we
gather enough 10 make one shudder. y

The Woman's Christian Temperance
Union of this state has established

pose of exerting the influence of that
great organization OF women as directly
and effectively as possible for the bene-
fit of the homes and of the children of
Michigan. 1t is also the purpose Of
the w. &. II. u. in providing official
quarters at Lansing to keep in touch

to put away the saloon and keep it
away are in operation. The Woman's
