MYTH Lent only two days away,
wv Salt Lake society promises to
take advantage of the short time re-
maining to indulge in g whirl OF gaye-

pecialIy favored A Colonial tea at

uIar entertainment will be from to
6. and besides the cabaret attractions,
the general dancing offers pleasing
diversion TO devotees of the new steps
Monday evening the music section OF
the Ladies Literary club will give a
dancing party at the clubhouse
If is said that the Lenten days, while
lacking in the popular ''the dansant
will be devoted by the society folks to
perfecting themselves in the new
dances.
Club functions and smaller parties
will relieve the tedium of the Lent, and
really it seems that each year the PEN
eteutial season is less strictly observed
in the social world. Consciences of even
church folks seem to he becoming more
elastic about what they may do during
Lent and it has gotten TO be not quite
such a, solnber time after all

ernoon from to at the Hotel Utah

N tious vein by Helen Dare in
the San Francisco Chronicle follows:
In all the storm that has ragged
and is raging-without the walls
of the ''thc dansant. against all
the interdic tions and criticisms aud
charges brought against the tango
by those who can Z or won { JOIN
the dance-mad throng. all the de-
votees need do to rout the enemy
and discomfit their critics is to
modestly indicate-switch public
attention around to, focus the eyes
that are timid, alarmed askance up
on--tho real uplift work the tango
IS doing.
Anyone with the heart for it can
take the facts and construct Cor
concoct) such persuasive brief for
the tango that it Will not only give
everyone a perfectly good excuse
for tangoing, but leave no one the
shred of an excuse for not tango
ing.
You know what the mild. gentle.
diplomatic reformers say--that the
strategic way of accomplishing re-
forms is by substitution that if the
unregenerate are wasting their en-
ergy in evil practices the way to
conserve that energy and divert it
to useful or admirable purposes is
not to automatically and aggres-
sively forbid those eveil practices,
but to deity substitute good ones
just as uneasy uncle slyly alb
stracts his gold watch from baby's
fist while he slips q shiny silver
dollar in its place.
