The Board Of Education has been in

the City Superintendent Of Schools on
| recreation centres, vacation schools and
vacation Fairgrounds that the turkey
trot grizzly bear, tango. and other like
! dances have been reduced to a minimum
In the mixed dances under the auspices
Of the educational authorities.
The report. prepared by Edward w.
J Stitt, district superintendent, was trans
mitted 10 the board by DIR. William H..
Maxwell the City Superintendent. who
| declares the suggestions and recon-
mendations contained therein are
worthy of your favorable considera-
| ton"
Speaking of the classes in mixed dane
ing. the report says:
1t is a pleasure TO record the con-
tinued success of these classes The fact
that mixed dancing could be permitted
In the recreation centres has resulted in
wider use of the school plant. In
number of cases. alumni organizations OF
| the elementary schools and neighborhood
| societies have secured permission to use
the school buildings for dancing"
/ 1t Is set forth that visitors have re-
marked the excellent posture of the young
people The popular dances have been
the "two-step, waltz and Nantucket"
In many neighborhoods." II further
states, the young men OF the dancing
classes are reaching higher standards OF
conventional refinement The night OF
the dances finds them well groomed and
the ordinary usages OF polite society are
being gradually inculcated."
Speaking of playground activities, 1t IS
reported that I'VE have quite driven out
'raStime' songs and all which are in any
way Objectionable as TO words or music"

The most notable of the extensions, he
says. is the experiment OF the two social
centres. one at Public School 63 and the
other at Public School Il. ia Manhattan.

the question whether We should not as

Lord Strathconq Has
More Homes Than Any
Other English Peer

London. England, Nov. 22.-Lord
Strathcona has returned from Scotland
to London. Much has been written on
this veteran of 90, but not everyone
knows that he has more residences
than anv other peer in the United
Kingdom They are nine in number,
and besides his house in Grosvenor
Square, include country places IN Eng
land and Scotland, and stately homes
in Montreal, Winnipeg and Nova Scotia
And no one knows which Of these ad-
dresses will find him, as he is always
on the move in trains and liners.
Certainly lord StTathcona has more
than his share Of interesting rrecollec-
tons When Donald Smith, aged IS
years. left his home in Scotland, and
sailed for Canada. queen Victoria had
just been crowned, the first steamship
was preparing to cross the Atlantic,
and there was no Dominion OF Canada
There were no railways, and the vast
region controlled by the Hudson Bay
company was the great lone land of
adventure. And into this wilderness
went Donald Smith, as a Denniless lac
in 1888 and he is now a hero. a states
man, a millionaire and nonagenarian.
