HOW TO DANCE THE TANGO, Mol
By oDGERs T. GURNEE
Illustrated With Specially Posed Photographs

I The half corde, which Is used a great
deal, consists Of the forward step, the
stamp and short, slow step back with
the left foot. Follow this with slight
dip and 60 forward on the left.
The side cOrde Is danced in open DO
sition-that is, facing in the same d.
rection, with hands clasped in front.
The step is the same as in the full
corde, except that both are going in
the same direction. Another striking
step is the scissors"
Stand facing one another. The man
crosses his right foot in front Of his
left. Turn slightly on the ball of the
foot 80 that both are facing in the
same direction. Step forward on the
left, turn toward each other and half
way around. Raise the left foot and
cross it in front Of right, take step for
ward on the right foot, turn and re-
peat original measure. The girls step
is the same as the mans except that
it is on different feet In this, as in
the corde, make the forward steps
slow, and on the turn raise the foot
quickly so that the motion is a con.
trasting one.
In the so called Argentine tango, as
it was first danced here, there were
a number of dips and bends, but the
impossibility Of doing these steps on
crowded floor has caused the majority
Of people to give them up. The newer
Partisan tango has no dips at all in it.
depending entirely upon the corde, and
for that reason being a great deal near
er the original.
The following rules for beginners,
as compiled by Mr.. and Mrs. Rowley
Downs, should prove great aid to
any one who Is anxious to learn:
Do not stand unnaturally when dane.
ing.
Do not lead weakly.
Hold the lady in normal position,
not too close or too loose.
Do not hold the arm straight out. It
should be bent at the elbow, with
hands clasped above the head.
Do not dance ON the heels.
Conform the length Of your step to
your partners.
Adjust your arm to the lady's height.
Never accenuate movements Of the
shoulders or hips.
Keep elbows still.
Keep these in your minds eye and
remember them when you are dancing
and you will find it much easier to get
along.
The continual cali for something new
must be answered. Why not try and
devise new step yourself. When do
ing this, however, bear in mind that
the grotesque step or posture is not
the one that finds popular favor. Make
them simple, effective and in keeping
with the dance to which they are done.

left heel. Raise the left foot at mo-
ment OF contact and step back on it.
Take another step back on right foot
and bring left over till feet touch.
From this position raise the right foot
and continue with original step. This
is the full corde. After learning the
rotation of the foot positions try and
get little snap into the last step.
That is when you bring the feet to-
gether at the end of the forward and
backward steps. The two long steps
should be done slowly, and the drag
should take the form Of slight stamp

 While the production has that touch of newness which is unnistakapte, the audience are treated to many 1n- novations that add to the general pleasure of seeing burlesque uplifted from it's old rit this year.

N there IS one thing that neither
