Greek Dances Gave Madens Their Grace and Beauty S

TINE fair maids Of Greece did not
have basketball or tennis, but
they had similar games and
played them with expert grace.
The emmilia was sort Of scarf
dance executed by the young girls alone
and danced with long wells to the music
Of their own songs OIL the flute Of on
Of their number
These scarfs were waved in just tine
same manner as We see the dancers
manipulate them today, but the Greek
girl was physically perfect and she
was trained in athletics and in the
grace Of movement
She had the advantage over the mol
ern girl who tries to initiate these
dances because she had never worn
corset or high hceIed shoes.
All weII-formed people who do not
wear shoes walk better than the most
graceful woman who does. because few
people have shoes that fit them. in the
first place and a shoe that is the least
bit tight or too loose throws the body
out of poise, placing the weight Some
where else than on the ball of the foot
The Greek girl had no tight cloth
ing, and little OF that though she was
not dressed as chilly as she looks
Their garments were generally OF a
warm wool material, and they soon be-
came expert dyers. buying beautiful
colors from the Phoenicans. So you
can imagine them dressed In glowing
shades of all kind.
There We're no stiff forms OF etiquette
I'm those days, and that made a great
deal of difference. Girls are so often
awkward because they are not sure
Of the dancing master rules Of deport-
ment that came long afterward as part
Of court etiquette, and which drifted
down to all peoples, and made them
afraid to be natural because they might
be set down as ignorant
The maidens who danced the emmilia
on the green lawns were graceful be
cause they were unconscious Of any
thing but the joy Of the dance that
celebrated the coming spring.
OF all the descriptions in Homer's
odyssey" there is none more beautiful
than that Of Nausicaa and her maidens
playing ball on the shore and finding
the shipwreclcd hero among the bush
es. You remember that the lovely Nau-
sicaa was the daughter of the king
and went down to the waters edge
early one morning to wash the festival
raiment with her maids. They accom-
pished their task and then bathel
themselves, rubbed themselves with OIL
and ate their luncheon Then they
started to play ball on the sand where
they had left the linen to bleach. One
of the girls threw the ball far into the
bushes and when she went to get ii

Shall | pay my attentions to the

by trying real hard / could win the
second. but do not want to humble
myself when there is another girl
who is glad to receive my atten-
lions. If l go with the first girl.

tween me and the second girl.
PERPLENED.
You say you don't want to humbll
to win the girl you love. when
the girl whom YOU don't love is ready
TO drop into your hands?
That settles it. You don't love her
If YOU did. you would be glad to bow
In the dust for her sake.
The trouble with YOU is YOU want
both. Since YOU can't have both, make
up your mind which one you want auG
go in and win. And be true to her!
