Defends The Tango
- a. -.s - On Moral Grounds

A good word for the tango and the
first. logical explanation advanced for
the existence Of this attractive dance
is offered by Rev. D. S. Phelan iE a
recent issue of the Western Watch
man, of which he is editor. In witty
vein, Father Phelan describes and
defends womankind who dance the
modern measures as follows:
"You have been shocking these
old gentlemen beyond measure by
some dances in which you have been
indulging and which disturb their
prayers. We believe they call it the
tango. We do not know thing about
it save what has been said Of it by
it's enemies The army Of crusty
bishops and grabbed priests have been
reinforced by lot of rheumatic dane
ing masters, who for obvious
reasons refuse to teach the tango.
They tell us, too, that the best Cath
Ollie ladies are dancing it and to the
great scandal of the men of the
cloth. That settles it for us.
1--WE would give more for the
Judgment OF bevy of innocent Cath
Ollie society girls in such matters
than for the opinion of the College
Of Cardinals. Then, they gravely in
form us that the dance came up from
the Argentine or some part Of South
Africa. That Is for us another settler
"The savages of South Africa and
South America never were guilty Of
an act of immodesty since their fore
fathers discarded clothes. For nat
ural innocence among men and wo-
men commend us to the so-called
savages.
During the Chicago worlds fair
they had on exhibition some savage
girls from the South Sea islands.
They were the handsomest and
purest looking girls on the grounds,
and the only savages we discovered
there were the people who were gaz-
ing at them Don't mind, girls.
These crusty old priests are only re-
touching the awful anathemas they
formerly launched against the round
dances, SO much in vogue now among
our societies.
people do not understand the In
nocent female mind. These tango
dancing girls are engaged in Gods
work. They were sent into the
world to get married and have chill
dren, and to do that they must make
themselves attractive to the sterner
sex. The endless changes in the
The Blackfoot optimist. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1907-1918, 1914-02-12

fashions are repeated and emphasized
challenges to men to look at them.
Every new curl or cut in the female
makeup speaks the silent prayer Of
the wearer to the manageable be
holder: Look at me. Would 1 not
make nice little wife for your
"She is following natures law and
doing tho will of God. The bewftch-
ing little miss who disports her
charms in the ballroom is doing
Gods work as emphatically as the
bishop at his prisons. But, Girls,
permit us to tell you that the man
who falls in love with your pretty
face is apt to become better hus-
band than he who is captivated by
your ankles. But face or ankles, you
have right to fascinate him if you
can"

It is rather unique that the average
American believes that Holland is q
part Of Germany. This is not so.
Holland" or officially called 1.-THE
Netherlands" is kingdom independ.
emit from any other nation. Two thirds
Of the country is far below sea lowell
A good many people believe that if
the dykes or sandhills that protect
the country. would give away to the
powerful force Of the ocean waves,
the country would be wiped off the
map This is not 80. In case Of a
dyke break inland dykes protect the
land from disaster. For. centuries
the government Of the Netherlands
has spent millions and millions Of dol
lars to prevent such q catastrophe.
Danger from this source Ia reduced
to = minimum. On the north and
west side the country is lined with
natural sandhills called "Duinon. -
and artificial dykes. : The sandhills
consist Of a dry, loose yellow sand.
To prevent the wind, which blows
in an easterly direction. nearly the
entire year, from blowing the sand
eastward, and thus move the sand
hills farther east, the government
plants thousands and thousands Of
shrubs, which. are called helm. !"
about three yards apart, on each sand
hill This plant is about il inches
high; and has enormous hong roots.
These roots hold the sand together.
Winds and ocean are constantly try
ing to- destroy the dykes. The water
tries to undermine the. foundations Of

by the government The queen is
assisted in her duties by the minis
ters of the different departments and
the first and second chamber
The first chamber is a body of
wealthy. and as a rule, titled men,
who receive no salary whatever. The
second chamber is composed of 40
members elected by the people. It
Is in the second chamber where all
the new bills and laws are introduced
and afterwards are sent to the first
chamber for approval. II bill 10
signed by a majority Of both cham
bers 1t is presented to the queen.
The queen has a right to veto any
and every bill. The reigning monarch
is compelled to rule according to tbs
constitution of the Netherlands, and
has comparatively very little power.
The Dutch people adore and worship
their queen, but her husband, Prince
Heinrich Won Mecklenburg Schwerin.
does not share this popularity in tho
least. The state pays him, notwith-
standing this fact. the paltry sum of
100000 year for his services, and

that. the queen provides H.

the sand hills and dykes. AS a pre-.
caution, hundred of miles Of canvas
loaded with heavy rocks. are placed
on the bottom of tho ocean. The
width of this canvas. which is OF
very heavy material, varies from II
TO IL Of q mile.
The west coast is altogether pro.
tected by sand hills with the excep.
ton OF about three miles Of open
space, where the government has
built three heavy dykes about halt
Of a mile apart. Those dykes are
about $50 feet thick and are also
thickly planted with holm. The first
dyke il Of course the thickest, but il
1t should not be able to withstand
the pressure of the water, the other
dykes will protect the country. Not.
withstanding all the taken precau-
tons and the immense amount OF
money expended in fighting the ocean,
the water swallows, gradually, a Ger.
y.
:; In the year Of 1900 A. D. the west
coast of the Netherlands extended
about s or s miles farther into the
ocean than at the present time. To.
day. the interested geographical ex.
pl0rer can find. the ruins of forts,
bridges and towers many feet below
sea level, and several miles, from the
coast. ~ -. ~
j The Dutch people submit :. gladly
to heavy special tax, to fight of
the ravages Of the ocean on their
dykes. The people stand as one
man on this perpetual war with the
ocean. During FAN and Winter it il
a common occurrence to have one
or more dykes give way TO the heavy
pressure of the water, which rushes
into tho country. washing away cat.
tie, houses. railroads, or anything
which may stand in the way of this
heavy on-rush of water. The coun.
try is divided into districts by
streams, and inland dykes in such a
manner that in case of flood only
small parts Of the kingdom are de-
stroyed.
A foreigner would probably live in
constant fear of drowning, but this
danger never enters into a natives
mind. One gets accustomed to a
danger if it is evident at all times
Holland is perhaps one of the very
few nations that utilize water as a
means of defense in case of war
With the exception of a few littk
bills, the highest of which is 1000
feet, the land is as level as the sur
rounding ocean itself, and is ira
versed by thousands Of streams anG
bitches. The depths of these streams
vary from one to six yards. Now in
case any foreign nation should try
