arouse interest in child welfare in the
community.
The Better Babies Contest consists
of a competitive examination of chill

bus dancing has again come into
vogue, and practices are held regu-
larly, SO all can learn at the same
time
During the summer dancing COM
pletely monopolized the guests at the
various summer resorts, the golf links,
tennis courts and other places OF
amusement being completely deserted.
An amusing incident happened the
other day on our Country club golf
links.
Two of the best tennis players were
in the midst of a very interesting
game when suddenly the game ceased
and with racquets in their hands the
two men began to dance the new
steps-one happened to know an I'M
usually intricate and new one that
the other hadn't learned, so then and
there, the tennis game forgotten, the
dancing lesson began.
In a recent conversation with one
of the recent devotees Of the new
dances-a young lady who has been
a. regular attendant at the practices
she said that one day she had such a
terrible cold and felt so stuffy and
her sciatica was about to run her
crazy, and her head ached her so bad
she was almost blind, so she retired
unusually early that evening. The
telephone bell aroused her and on
answering it she recognized the voice
of one of her friends, who informed
her that they" were getting up an
informal dance. and that they would
call by for her in a few minutes.
The honk of an autom obiIe at her
door found her ready and the next
day she declares that she never felt
better in her life. The cold, the sci
atica and the headache all disappeared
as by magic, after the music and
started and the dancers had begun
to take their places on the floor.
