Americanized English.

(FrOm An Old Newspaper
An editor of real ability makes a
great mistake when he departs from
pure English. The temptation to
emphasize a sentence or make il
lively with slang is sometimes a
strong one from its well-known eff
feet on a certain class of readers. 1t
should. however, be avoided. and in
leaving il aside the editor viii have
his reward in the increased conf
dence of all classes. The English
of the modern paragraph often goes
beyond all bounds. and justifies such
criticisms as the following:
New York newspapers accuse
each other of a lifelong struggle
for ALTERATION, varied with the par
turient pangs of rhetorical novelty "
And if this straining after shall
low rhetorical effect and feverish
aim for absurd alterations so often
lead writer's astray, can we wonder
that even in the very men who criti-
else il. as in the above quotation, a
similar tendency to extravaganza IS
visible?
Here is a sample of one Of those
comments which excite the wonder
Of Saturday Reviewists:
a Chicago paper announces that
nilsson is TO take the Chicago soul
and slap it into Elysium.' II isn't
Nilsson who is going TO take Chica-
go soul. and it isn't Elysium she's go

SECOND LESSON.
The Hesitation Waltz.

THEORY: The basic or key step
of the Hesitation Waltz is complete
in six counts, or two measures of
regular waltz time. Four counts are
employed in the chassee (walk) or in
the turn, and the remaining two beats
make up the hesitation" or pause.
Contrary TO the general dancing
rule, the lady begins the movement
with her left and the gentleman with
his right foot".
The counting of the mans part IS
as follows Step right foot %,
left CO.. right 60, left (4), hest
tate upon left foot for count 5
and g. Conversely the ladys step
is: Step left %, right (2). left 60,
right (4, and hesitate upon the
right foot for counts 5 and 6.
This essential step which never
varies. is used in direct advance and
executed in open" closed or side"
position of the partners.
Any number of figures may be in
troduced. provided each variation can
be reconciled to the theory of the
basic step.
The following figures compose the
standardized version of the dance,
they have not set sequence, but the
beginner may practice them in the
order in which they are presented
in this lesson until familiar with the
various changes. 1t is recommended
that each figure be performed four
times, since four such movements
occupy exactly one phase of waltz
composition.
%To reconcile the Hesitation Waltz
to the orthodox rule, the parteners
may begin by "hesitating." man or
the left foot, woman on right foot.
It is usual, however, to start with
the walk.
THE HESITATION CHASSEE Or
WALK (Executed by partners in
closed POSITIONS.
MANS PART: Begin with right
foot. Take four steps forward in
fourth position Occupies four counts
of the music. Hesitate on left foot
for counts five and six.
WOMAN'S PART: Begin with left
foot. Take four steps back in fourth
position Occupies four counts of the
music). Hesitate on right foot foI

The straight forward figure may
be varied by alternating a forward
and backward chassese To make
progression practical and to avoid
collision with other dancers, the sten
