BY FRANCES L. GARSIDE.

TIME Society for the Classification
OF Household Germs had been
called together at the solcita-
ton of the spinster members. They
wanted to know Who Makes the Best
Husbands?
The married women knew there
haint no such thing" but as it is
part of the deception OF matrimony for
every woman to claim she won the first
prize, no wife dared remain away. If
too honest to give active testimony in
favor of what she won. she could at
least compromise with the truth by
smiling triumphantly at her spin sis
ters.
II wish to state" said one spin, that
the best husband is not the man who
has retired from business life. | speak
from observation at the home of a
friend. Her husband has retired from
business life and he devotes his life to
putting his chair just where she wants
to sweep next"
Tn my opinion" reported another
spin, "a doctor makes the poorest kind
Of a husband. | have friend whose
husband is a doctor, and some days she
has to warm his dinner as often as
seven times before he can finish 1t. One
day he ate his soup at IL, and had a
case calling him away between every
course. finishing his dessert at $50
that night while giving directions over
the telephone to a woman who had a
boil on her ear"
At last a wife arose. Il speak from

band. / have the best husband in the
world. He is gone from home three
months at a time"
MY husband is better" declared
second wife. HE also travels, and is
gone from home six months at time"
A widow arose. II know where my
husband is nights she testified.
An unnatural quiet followed. 1t was
broken by President Daysey Mayme
Appleton hastily announcing that the
meeting was adjourned.

Mr.. Andrew reminded him with know

Andrew smiled in a fatherly manner and
silenced him with a wave of his hand.
Mr.. Andrew waved him out with a
meaningful smile

complimented him with subdued enthu-
siasm. And if I'm pinched, say the lady

I'll remember that"
Mr.. Walter Blount had evidently hur-
ried through his dinner with the aim of
breaking in on his visitor. He hustled
into the living room just as Mr. Creegan
vanished
"Oh, is that the guy that wanted to
see me?" he inquired with an appraising
look at Mr.. Creegans back.

call again.
"Oh, he will?" unused Walter.

7 n order to dance the one-step or any
of the new dances properly 1t is
supposed that the dancers
have a keen sense of rhythm and that
they are more or less evenly matched
as to height.
The steps taken by the two dancers
should be of equal length and the man
must guide the lady in a decided fash
ion, without hesitation
The man should place his hand on
the lady's waist, not between her
shoulder blades, as is frequently SEEN
The music of the one-step is in two
four or two-step time, ragtime music
The beat of the music should be en-
phasized.

MOST CERTAINLY NOT.

Dear Miss Fairfax:
I have been keeping company
with a man who has been separated
from his wife about year. We in
tend to marry when he secures a
divorce, which is now pending. Is
it proper for me to appear in pub
lie with this man? A READER.
1t is not only improper for you to
appear with him in public, but equally
wrong to see him at. any time.
No man honors a woman by wooing
her when he is bound to another wom-
an. He should be free first. He is
compromising your good name by pay
ing you attention so long as he is an
other womans husband.

The correct position for the one-step
is shown in the illustration.
The one-step is composed of groups
of four steps each with a dip or Slight
bending of the knee on the fourth STEP
The body is carried erect. The dip is
very slight.
In beginning the dance the lady be-
gins with her right foot, the gentleman
with his left.
FIRST PART.
The first direction is a semi circle.
Gentleman: Step on left foot then on
right, then left and dip on right
Lady: Step on right foot, then on left.
then on right, and the dip comes on the
left foot bending the left knee.
Atlanta Georgian., 1913-03-11

SECOND PART.
Gentleman; Begin again with the left
foot and take four steps back
Lady: Starting with right foot, take
four steps forward.
Lady and gentleman end this figure
with dip of the knee
THIRD PART.
Reverse the previous step, the lady
going backward and the gentleman GO
ing forward, in walking step. Four
steps.
These are the simple steps of the
One-step. There are almost as many
variations of the steps as there are good
dancers doing it.
The very best thing about the one
step is that it requires very little skill

and any good dancer can make up steps
to go with the music.
The grapevine step is often intro
duced and is easily done.
GRAPEVINE.
Gentleman: Step backward on left
foot, swing right foot to the side and
back pointing the toe, step back on the
right; swing the left foot back; step
forward on the right and reverse the
step coming forward.
Lady: Step forward on right foot ;
swing left foot forward and step. Then
on right. Change ana go backward.
These steps must be done with the
partners close together, the man lead

look as if only one person was moving
instead of two, so perfect should be the
unison of rhythm time and motion.

CIinch Valley Named in 175O

1t may prove of interest to
many readers to know the de-
rivation of the names Clinch
Valley and Clinch river in our
nelghboriug section in Virginia.
II is furthermore interesting to
know that the name was given
by a man named Hartman, one of
the earliest hunters and explorer
in this section of the state. This
country now teens with Har-
mans and there are many fami-
lies of the name through out the
Clinch Valley.
AS the story runs, Adam Har-
man was hunting and trapping
in this section and that he
suspected the Indians of stealing
his furs. These tribes were
usually peaceable and Hartman
thought that a man named Castle
was prompting them in their de-
predations. He accordingly Oh
tanned a warrant from Justice
in Augusta county and with al
posse set out to make the arrest
in OF about the section or Russell
county known us Castlewood. |
With Hartman was q stout huntr
named Clinche, and their party |
meeting with serious resistance
from Castle and the Indians, a.
retreat was ordered. While re-
treating this man named Clinche |
was thrown from his horse while
cossing the river, and being al |
ready famed by an attack of |
white swelling, and the Indians, |
believing him to be diabled,
dashed into the river and seized
him, but the great hunter was
too much for his enemy, succeed
ing in drowning him, hence the
name" Clinche river" was given.
DR.. Thomas Walker, in his jour
nal kept of his journey to and
through Cumberland Gap and
return in 1850, says "Clinche
river was named for hunter
whose name was Clinche."
In the course of time the final
was dropped from the word and
it became Clinch river, the
Valley deriving its name from
the stream flowing through. -
