general public does not know this,
and all the poses and dances look
much alike"
After good deal of sincere study
and thought on the subject | came
to the conclusion that to n great eX-
tent these criticisms were right. What
was lacking was the absence of any
real ioyousness-of any feeling Of
pulsating life to the dancing. Lack
ing the splendid joyousness of Miss
Duncan's work, the dancing of most
of the classical dancers was curious

For real classical dancing the poses
must be good, the arms and body
graceful and trained, the legs and
feet under perfect control. and the
muscles in the prime Of healthy, firm
condition Add to this the splendid
ioyousness Of young life, thrilling and
pulsing with rhythm-and you have
real classical dancing. Rhythm is
perfectly natural 10 the child until
we spoil him by self-conscious teach

poetry came through rhythm, a sway

Educational Dancing.

To become a good classical dancer
il is not only necessary to take A child
and instruct IL in the art Of moving
gracefully but all the rest OF the
Chjld'S education must assist in the
teaching of classical dancing
From earliest infancy II must be
taught to observe to concentrate, to
realize the beautiful in line and color

couraged TO copy beautiful poses and

HELPS FOR FLOWER GROWERS.

Editor Social Corner: Flower grow CTS who do not have cold frames can start their seeds in glass-coVered box in the house or out of doors. The earth should be composed of rich loam and sand so they may make stout growth.
 The following plants are favorites for shady places: Achillea, Alyssum, Asperula, Aster, Bachelors Button, Begonia, tuberous- rooted, Chinese Primrose, Calendula. Canterbury Bell, Chrysanthemum (annuaD, Columbine, scholtzia, Feverfew, PhIox, F'orget-Me- Not, F'oxgIoye Godetia, Larkspur Maurandia, Mignonette, Mimulus, Oenothera, Pansy, Petunia, Pinks, Pop py, Snapdragon, Violet.

 By border planting is meant the planting of a strip against a back ground such as a fence, a row of trees or shrubbery or a house.

A NAME FOR A BUNGALOW.

Editor Social Corner: l noticed that someone desired suggestions, for d name for a riverside summer bunga- low It might be named after trees on the place. If there are oak trees call 1t Oak lodge, or Maple lodge, etc If you can give it an Indian name Wepauca-White Water. Rio Vista is Spanish for river view. If there are ferns on the place it might be called t'erndale or FernbanI1. These sugges- tlons are simply to aid the owner in finding behtting name. The Social Corner should be able to meet an in quiry of this sort.
 am glad to see letters upon garden ing in the Social Corner. Someone has spoken of sweet peaS-they do make nice bouquets. but they are not an amateurs flower. Sweet peas to do their. best need to have the trench in which they are to be planted prepared in the fall. They should be planted early and deep and as they grow the soil should be drawn over them for two or three inches. North and south is the best direction for the row to run and they should be watered liberally at sundoWn in dry weather as they call for more water than the average rain fall. They must be picked close, and if at midsummer they show weakness and disinclination to bloom the soil should be frned as you would firm it for a roSebuSh or a fencepoSt. Then if they don't come sprinkle a little nj tIate of soda in the trench and rake it in lightly, which will stimulate them Sweet peas are never happy unless they feel the sustaining earth press ing their roots.
 Hoping these hints may be helpful to some of the Cornerites. I will close.
