GEORGE PRIMROSE
RAPS THE TANGO

Old George Primrose, the dean Of
the minstrel funmakers, who was
winning plaudits-and incidentally a
fortune-with his soft shoe and clog
dancing when Honey Boy" Evans
and all the other latter-day stars
were kicking the footboards off their
cradles, is back in harness, and is
coming to the Atlanta Theater Oc-
tober S0-31 and November l. He will
talk over old times with Lucien York,
the minstrers best friend. With him
will be Lew Dockstader, minstrelsy's
synonym for fun, reunited with his
old partner after many years of
lonesomeness
The Old dances are more classic
than the ones people are dancing
nowadays" Old George says. 1T
doesn't take a contortionist to dance
them, either. and there is not much
danger of anyone breaking his back
closging or doing a little soft shoe
stuff
The new dances, the tango, the
turkey trot and the other asinine
prancings that masquerade as dances,
are based on nothing but a love for
the sensational: while the old time
dances are based on real harmony
and fun.

Il know it was coffee because
