Concerning the Tango
and Other Tangos

1t seems strange to hint that the
day of the tango" rs now at us noon
and very near it's sunset
Yet it is socially impossible that any
dance can continue under universal
scorn which has been showered on
the extreme tango. Police officials in
Chicago regulate it. German military
authorities forbid it. The bartenders

BY JANE whitaker

come to the big city of Chicago and
be caught in the undertow of tempta-
ton and swept away, and how they
may be rescued even when they are
in the quicksand was told to me yes
terday by Sister Jeanette of st.
Mary's Mission.
This mission conducts services at
the Women's Prison in the Bridewen
every Sunday and in both of the cases
of which am going to tell you, the
girls hady already gone SO far down
the stream of life that they were in
the House of Correction.
The. first girl came from little
country town, dissatisfied with the
very stern discipline of her parents;
fancying that she could gain
freedom and independence here, for,
to the country girl, big city is al
ways big promise.
However, she did not secure en-
ployment, but she did become ac-
quainted with an undesirable class of
girls, and, from accepting their care
less charity, she finally accepted their
loose standard of morality, until she
wound up in the BrideWel.
One of the Sisters noticed her one
Sunday and talked to her. There
was something about the girls face
that led the Sister to believe that
good was not dead, but only sleeping,
so she arranged for the girls free
dom.
She did not stop there, however,
but secured training for the girl in a
hospital in\another city, and today
that girl who was once almost lost is
a worker in the social service field,
guiding the lives of other girls who
are tempted to be weak and foolish.
The other girl was formerly a shop
girl in Baltimore, which is city of
proud Southern aristocracy.
The son of family that was birth
proud became engaged to the girl,
but it does not always follow that be-
