forth The tango must go, A bibrant
spirit is wont to hesitate before no
Herculean task. But even Hercules
would have been nc match for the task
of making the world stop dancing.
The world will dance. 1t always has
and it always will. And SO long as it
does, it will dance the best dances on
tap.
The simple truth of the matter is
that the new dances are better than
the old. Now, We would not be quite Sd
iconoclastic as to aver that anything
can be better than dreamy waltz,
well written, well played and well
danced. But take the thing by and
large, the dances of the new day are
immeasurably better than the dances
of our youth
| For this there are several reasons
I In the first place, we have discovered
new dance rhythm. The good old
waltz went one, two, three, one two,
three-perfect rhythm of it's kind The
two-step-may it rest in peace-went
one, two, one two, one two-a perfect
/ ~ good rhythm as devoid of beauty as
bass drum The one-step has reduc-
ed the rhythm to its lowest terms
one ,one ,one, one, one, one, one-a
rhythm as fascinating as it is prim-
tive. When the world feels that
! rhythm pounding through the strains
OF Too Much Mustard" or other tuns
{ Of the movement it cannot help but
dance.
Then, too, the new dances are rs
various as human nature itself. There
is the one-step, appearing in a score
of notifications from grapevine to
castle-walk. The waltz, perennial in
its senucus beauty, is transformed in
to the Boston, the hesitation, even the
lame-duck as odd in execution as in
name. Then the tango, difficult
dance Of stately measures, a kind of
minuet, a deux, until it becomes in
fected with the speed mania of the
age and energies as the tango of the
Argentine.
In this very quality of the new
dances lies their difficulty. You must
have danced with your partner before,
if you would be successful. You must
know his style, or hers. Unless, of
course, you are that wonderful and
too rare ctject, a natural and perfect
dancer. Then, if you be masculine,
your partner will find herself com
PEELED hyynotically to follow; if you
be feminine, you WI follow any cad
ing.
Dancing is a gift of the gods. 1t sets
the blood to racing, drives away black
care exhilirates body mind and spirit.
1t is the one sport that brings the
sexes together on an equality of exc
cution.
The new dances, par excellence,
give oxygen to the blood, vigor to the
muscles, gayety to the spirits, refresh
ment to the mind Already their ear,y
eNuberances, which tended toward
vulgarity, are toning down. They have
received no fiercer denunc.ation than
did the waltz when it appearsd.-The

lead her into temptation? Lots of
wives are unfaithful to good men,"
but l never yet heard of a woman who
was unfaithful to a husband who was
really good to her--and being good to
woman doesn't mean merely re-
her food and clothes. 1t means minis
tering to the wants of her soul ana
heart just as much as her body.
And take the case of where the man
is the sinner: A young man who is
genial and broad-minded, and gen.
erous, marries woman who is mar
row and prejudiced and stingy. The
first thing that she does is to drive all
of his old friends away from him.
The next thing Is to terrorize him so
he's afraid to ask even his own mother
to came to the house. Everything he
wants to do she puts the veto on. If
he takes her out to restaurant she
is afraid they're spending too much.
If he takes her to the theater she's
worrying lest they shut the cat up in
the pantry. She makes home the most
uncomfortable and unpleasant spot on
earth to him, and so naturally he be-
gins to stay away from 1t.
When he wants to enjoy himself he
goes to some place as far from his
own domicile as possible, and he
doesn't take wife along, either. He
has no companionship in the woman
to whom he Is married, and he finds it
in some other woman, and wife goes
to Reno. and considers herself very
much misused. when, in reality, she is
the sinner.
And there is the other case of the
woman who nags. She may really love
her husband and be doing it for his
own good, only none Of us ever rec
ognize the value Of persecution. She
torments him about everything he
does, and leaves undone, until he flies
to some other distraction simply for
preservation. You may be sure
of this. that very few women whose
husbands go wrong have failed to be
accessory before the fact.
Avoid Temptation
Lead us not into temptation" says
the most beautiful of all prayers. The
