May PUT BAN ON
FREAK DANCES
Hancock People Disapprove of
the Modern Steps
~.

In cooperation with the world wide
movement to eliminate the new dances
the one-step. tango and hesitation
waltz, Hancock people have voiced
lhcir opinion on the matter. The con-
census of these opinions indicates
these steps are objectionable ami
should bc prohibited.
As yet, no dances have been given
this year under the auspices of the
Hancock high school and local school
authorities nave been given no oppor-
tunity To rule against the so-called
freak dances. However several mem
bers of the board Of education favor
putting the ban on them, however,
and should dance be given i'm the
near future by the students of the high
school these steps viii not be permit
ted.
Several citizens have given MS their
reason for the elimination of these
dances, especially from the public
dances, that very few people know
how to dance the steps correctly.
One Citlzens statement.
Anent the dance the following ex-
preston has been made by a promi-
nent citizen of Hancock:
The tango is dance difficult To
learn and is moreover an open dance
in which the partners should be at
least six inches apart 1t is supposed
10 be danced without contact. | have
not seen any hut professional dancers
get away with the dance successfully.
The dance itself is rot to blame but
simply the improper and immodest
manner of holding. That this close
holding is not essential to dancing tn"
steps properly was shown conclusive
ly at a recent dance in Annapolis
when the couples were ordered To keep
at least sis inches apart. The same
rule would probably improve the dance
ia this vicinity.

THIN FOLKS WHO
WOULD BE FAT
Increase in Weight Ten Pounds or
..... Moro
A Physician's Advice.

a PnySictan'S ADVICE.
I'D certainly give most anything to
be able to fat up q few pounds and
stay that way" declares every excess
lively thin man or woman. Such re-
suit is not impossible, despite past
failures. Thin people are victims of
malnutrition a condition which pre-
vents the fatty elements of food from
being taken up by the blood as they
are when the powers of nutrition are
normal. Instead of getting into the
blood, all the fat and flesh producing
elements stay in the intestines until
they pass from the body as waste.
To correct this condition and to pro-
duce a healthy normal, amount of fat
the nutritive processes must be, arti-
ficially supplied with the power which
nature has denied them. This can
best be accomplished by eating Sar-
gol tablet with every meal. Sargol is
a scientific combination of six of the
'best strengthening fat-producing ele-
ments known to the medical profess
sion. Taken with meals, it mixes with
the food and turns the sugars and
starChes into rich, ripe nourishment
for the tissues and blood and it's rapid
effect is remarkable. Reported gains
of from ten to twenty-five pounds in a
single month are by no means infre-
quent Yet it's action is perfectly
natural and absolutely harmless. Sar-
gol is sold by Leo H. F'ihe and other
good druggists everywhere and every
package contains a guarantee of
weight increase or money back.
Charlottesville Sargol has pro-
duced remarkable results in the
treatment of nervous indigestion and
general stomach disorders. it should
not, owing to it's remarkable flesh
producing effect. be used by those
who are not willing to increase their
weight ten pounds or more.
