trained movements which are meant
by the dancer to represent the actions
and passions. All these movements
( follow the same law of rhythm, Sc.
quence and harmony which govern the
kindred art of music and poetry for
| they are sisters. THE French have
saying that what cannot be said may
! be sung and what cannot be sung may
| be danced" This means that more can
be conveyed by the tone of voice than
| by words and a gesture may mean
more than either.
There are ideas so fine that they
seem to evaporate in the enedavor to
| put them into words.
There are undoubtedly many things
| one knows but cannot tell. How shall
| these uneXpressed emotions be given
to the world? 1t is a great deal for
| Frenchman to admit that there are
ideas that cannot be expressed in his
own language. Perhaps there is no 9th
er language which is able to convey
| finer meanings than the French. To
our simple natures spoken language
! seems Inadequate.
| Mrs Bernhard then gave some in
teresting facts about the Greeks. Aes-
thetic dancing has recently been re-
woman, has had much to do with this
as well as the Russian dancers, with
| whom many are familiar.
! Previous to Miss Foulke's appear
ance, Mrs. J. E. Cathell made a few
brief marks and gave brief word of
explanation about the program to fol-
low. She said that the dances to be
presented by Miss Foulke were not
dances in the ordinary sense Of the
! word nor We're they accompanied by
regular dance music. Dance music
such as folk dances, the waltz, ragtime
| have strongly marked rhythm and
| the form of dance is repetition in
way. The aesthetic is much more COM
! pick. The music to which it is danced
| is of a different nature. Among the Sc
| lectiOns We're included MacDowelis
water Lily" a study by Heller and
| Chopin's Funeral March, Miss Mil
dred SChalk, a member of the Music
Study club, played the accompani-
ments in her usual excellent manner,
Miss Foulke's Interpretation of the dan
I ces was truly wonderful and delighted
all 1t would he hard to select any one
dance from the many that were given
as particularly better than the other.
| To many THE Funeral March" appeal
! ed while others were delighted with
. the "Sea-Shclr' by Heller. A nymph
strays down her native stream where
it meets the sea. and where for the
! first time she dips her feet in the
! waves in the beach and sees a sea
shell. a thing absolutely new to her.
! At last she gathers it up and runs
away with it.
The Shepherd Boy" by Nevn. was
one of the prettiest of the entire
group. Miss Foulke showed remarka-
| BILE grace and agility All the other
! dances We're we'll executed and will
| live long in the minds of the guests.
| The audience was appreciative and
was composed of the social, literary
| and musical folk of the city. The host
esses are to be congratulated upon
the success Of the affair This is Miss
Foulle's first appearance in this city
in dances Of this nature Each member
of the club was privileged to invite
three guests.
