Fall Dancing Season Opens.


Elsewhere in this issue Mrs. Shir-
ley Keene announces the opening OF
the fall classes in dancing, both ball
room and aesthetic. Mrs. Keene has
but recently returned from San Fran
cisco, where she obtained all of the
new and latest dances as adopted and
standardized by the National Dane
ing Masters convention. The dances
as taught in Ashland this year will
be identical with those taught in New
York and in fact the entire country.
In former years no two sections OF
the country harbored the same dances
and new creations overworked the
fad until everyone was dancing some
thing different and dancing parties
became scenes of the utmost confu-
sion. The adoption of standard set
of steps and the removal from favor
OF the contortionistic fantasies of for
mer years will place dancing upon a
new plane this winter. One may rest
assured that after receiving instruc-
ton from Ashland's popular teacher
one may go anywhere and find the
identical steps as taught here.
The fox trCt is by far the most pop
ular dance of the present day in the
cities and promises to take Ashland
by storm. The Standardization Of the
onestep and the waltz hesitation will
furnish variety of dances which will
make an Ashland dance doubly en-
joyable.

BROTHER DEAD AND
 TWO MORE INJURED: ACTRESSES WEEPING
Little Girls Do Dancing
 Turn At Polls Despite Their Great Grief.

The tragedy of the war again has reached it's way to this country, was learned last night when some of the artists at Polls theatre tried to fathom the nervousness and the tears of the two little girls doing a dancing act. The girls arc Irenl1e and EtheIka Sard, Austrians, whose names correspond to Irene and Ethel Several months ago they. came to this country after hay ing a wondrous success in their own country. For two months they were understudies at the Winter Garden to the Dolly Girls and, later they were booked in their own act for vaude- vile.
 Other performers on the, bill yester- day saw something wrong with the girls and in an effort to console them gradually learned the truth of their trouble. The girls have three brothers fighting at the front who have been in action since the first troops left Aus tria- Three months ago one of the brothers was killed in action, and the girls were handed g, letter just before they left New York Thursday morning for the engagement here, telling that both the others are lying wounded in a Red Cross hospital, one crippled for life, and the other with a prospect of being saved. Stage life Is hard and these two little girls have to do their dancing, smile and seem happy. Back of it all is the lump that will come Into their threats, the heartaches and the tears that only the dressing room knows.
