THE DANSANTE FOR
DOLL AND TOY FUND.

Miss May Curtis has spent the past
two summers in New \ DIRK and Boston
and has came back with all the beauti-
full standardized dances, not at the
tips of her fingers, but the tips of her
pretty dancing slippers. Miss Curtis
takes the very frivolous occupation of
dancing quite serious. She looks upon
dancing not only as the very poetry OF
motion, but as an expression of per-
sonality. She believes that the new
standardized dances help one to be
gracious as well as graceful She
thinks that these dances help to give
one mental poise as well as physical
poise The standardized dances are
no longer the rage, they are more than
this, they are the accepted vogue, So
ciety no longer recognizes with any de-
gree of fervor any but these beauti-
ful, graceful expressions OF the art Of
motion.
On Saturday afternoon at the San
Carlos hotel, Miss Curtis will give a
The Dansaute, at which she will have
exhibition dances in the Fox Trot,
which, by the way, is not a So called
animal dance, but is named for the
man who introduced 1t, the Maxixe,
Lulu Sado, La Russo, and number Of
the other standardized dances. Miss
Curtis is giving this dansante for the
benefit of the St. Nicholas Girls DOH
and Toy fund, and q large ATTENDANCE
Is anticipated.
