body and pose.
One OF the differences between our
dancing and the antique lies in the
straight foot of the classic Greek dancer
and the pointed toe of the later French
and Italian schools. which seems to
have come by way of the Far East.
The Greeks, who wore the thinnest of
sandals, or none at ALL placed the foot
in it's natural position, straight on the
ground. The American Indian still does

the time, as well as the very intricate
symbolism OF the religious ceremonial
There was no occasion when dancing
was not an expression of the Greek per
sonality. and great dancers enjoyed un
beltevable popularity.

TIME Greeks were the first to invent
the now celebrated cabaret show
No, they did not turkey trot. for
they probably knew that they had
reputation for art and culture to hand
down TO future generations.
But every Greek Of fashion or impor-
lance gave dinner parties which were
even more costly than those we read
about today, and the main part of the
entertainment was the cabaret. the
singing and dancing by paid entertain
ers which went on during the meal

AS A RULE. NO.

Dear Miss Fairfax:
! am nineteen years old and have
been going with a young man one
year my senior eighteen months, to
whom ] am secretly engaged. He
will not be in a position to marry
me for five or six years.
Do you approve of such a long
engagement? ANXIOUS.
Long engagements are so unfair to
the girls that I DO not. as a rule, APP
prove of them. The man must be con-
slant beyond all dreams to make such a
time of waiting a happy time. Does
this describe your lover?

THE WORD is ABUSED.
Dear Miss Fairfax:

Dear MlsS FalTfaN.
VIII you kindly inform me if
flirting is anyway decent.
DOUBTFUL.
There is nothing wrong in flirting in
the original sense OF the word. which
means an innocent coquettishnoss.
the modern version makes ogline of
eyes at strangers. wiuking and waving
of hands come under the head of flirt-
ing. and gives the word vulgar, in
decent meaning. Therefore. in answer
to your question. rs flirting anyway
decent ! must apply the modern in
depreciation, and answer "No!"

THAT is IMPOSSIBLE.

Dear Miss FaiTfaY.
About two months ago 4 friend OF
mine took a signet ring belonging
to me and lost it. Do you not think
it proper for him to return one in
its place? IRENE.
He could not replace the ring he lost
The second ring would be from him
and 1t would be improper for you to

other than marriage engagement.

this and so do all aboriginal races. The
pointed too, or foot that points out from

of dancing teachers. 1t was unknown

of sculpture, which are still the ideals

whether 1t would be wise for me to

ADVICE TO THE LOVELORN Y By B.7ies Fairfax
ASK HER THE REASON.

Dear Miss Fairfax:
l am nineteen and I have been
going with a girl for a year and
every time l ask her out she has
some other place to go. ALFRED.

Ask her her reasons and respect them.
That will be a good beginning in win

year Heart disease was given as
the cause of the retirement.
Right after his retirement Riley
received a subponae from District

other official received 10 per cent
