LOOKING FOR SITE.

The Scherr Manufacturing Com
pany, who are shortly to establish a
factory on this side OF the river, are
now looking for a site for a tenn
pOrary location. Up to the present
time not enough employees have
been secured to warrant the opera
ton of more than twenty machines
but they are going to begin with this
number and will increase as new APP
plicatiOns are received All who have
made application will be Communicat
ed with today when they will be given
their first instructions. After a week or
more of operating the electrical ma
chimes they will be placed Oh this
side side of the river.
Anyone having a location to offer
having space of % by 100 or larg
er with plenty of light. will ad
dress The Herald office or the
Scherr Manufacturing Company, De
catur street. All those desiring
employment can make application
also at the Herald office
The herald., 1914-04-23
Wages From $500 to $500.

Mr. Scherr of the Scherr Manufac-
turing Company pointed out that in
the employment of the sewing wo-
men they would not want seam
stresses who could not earn more
than $500 a week. In other words
they would prefer a class of people
whose salary would be from the
minimum of $500 on up to $500
and $500 per week.
1t is not necessary for a party
making application for position in
the skirt factory to be an experienced
operator or seamstress. The ScherT
Manufacturing Company will take
all those ladies who know how to
sew on a machine and instruct them
in the art of making skirts. The
compensation will be by piece work
and it is only a short while after
the beginning that the seamstress
makes from $500 to S11.00 a week
Later on as she becomes proficient
she will make higher wages.
One hundred women will be given
employment if this number can be
secured.

Waltz Time for Boston.
The Boston is done to waltz time.
There is rise on each second
step, alternating feet. hence the
hop idea. and hence the soreness
Of the ankles. The Boston. when
properly danced, is not hop. but
a rise. and IL your ankles are not
sore with the soreness of boil
after the first lesson you have not
even tried this terpsichorean time
killer.
Unlike the hesitation. the Boston
requires some sort of move with
every count or beat of the music.
In going to the right. on first
count Of music, take first step for
ward with right foot flat. knee
rise OF ball of right foot. bring
toe Of left foot to heel of right;
on third count. sink on right or
forward foot, resting solidly on it.
with left heel raised and keeping
left foot at heel. The second and
third counts are mere rise and
fall on the strong, or right foot.
Iu going to the left. the same di-
rectlcns should be followed. using
the left as the strong. or forward,
foot.
The only vestige Of hop that
I have been able to discover in the
new dances comes in the "twinkle,"
introduced in the hesitation. One
can only hop when one changes
feet, reversing the position. This
is done in the twinkle. Starting
with the outside foot, take three
steps forward, then back one. a
quick hop-the twinkle-which re-
verses the feet, and the forward
steps are repeated. beginning with
the opposite foot.
II you wish to hop. dance the
hesitation and twinkle" to your
hearts content. but II you would

twinkle" may be included even In
the Boston. but never, never In
