By ANNA PAvLowA

Lack of variety has done as much as
anything else to make the one-step or
binary. When we see couples tearing
along with a set look and using a sue
cession of steps that are virtually repeti-
tions It is no wonder we gasp.
Smoothness OF action. without swaying
OF the body or swing Of arms, should be
the precept to remember well in the for
ward and back first figure OF my stand
ardized one-step and the side-gllde.
Smoothness of action can come only by
dancing on the ball Of the foot (not the
entire fiat OF the foot. including the heeD.
I believe the one-step can be made q
dance OF genuine beauty by slight
changes and the introduction of some
semi-fancy figures. In this article shall
explain the polka-variation. Please look
carefully at the illustration on this page.

In "clossd" position the dancers, though
having used their right and left feet,
respectively for their trial steps, are
actually supporting their weights on the
opposite feet. Therefore, moving to the

direction from which they have come,
the lady turning on the ball of her left
foot TO her right the cavalier turning on
the ball OF his right foot to his left
AS they make the turn, which is one
quarter of circle, the dancers bend
slightly forward from the shoulders, ex-
tend their right ana left arms before
them a little below shoulder height and
extend the feet upon which they are to
take their first steps.
The complete polka variation figure in
the one-step as have standardized 1t is
four counts forward and four backward,
the dancers keeping the approximately
relative attitudes shown in the illustra-
tion, but the dancers instead OF sliding
the feet lift the knees and take the step
on the ball OF each foot.
The lady takes her first forward step
on her right foot on the "one" count,
follows on count two" with her left
and uses the right and left for the
third" and fourth" counts. On count
five" she starts backward, taking a
short step on the right foot and holding
her attitude as nearly as possible like
that maintained moving forward. Counts
six" seven" and "eight" are alter
nately on the left. right and left feet
and moving backward.
There is no difference in the stems or
comparative attitude of the cavalier
from that Of his lady. He begins merely
on the foot opposite to that used by his
feminine partner. The following dIa-

IN HARRISBURG FIRE
Thousands of Inauguration

Department Store.

HARRISBURG, Jan. 1s.-As the result
Of spectacular fire that ragged from IL
O'Clock last night until $3.50 this morning.
Kaufman's department store on Market
Square, is In rdlns, with a loss Of 100000
The s. s. Pomeroy grocery store and the
Solomon Kuhn Carpet Company's shop,
adjoining, were badly damaged by fire
and water. Six injured nremen are In the
hospital.
The FIRE started in the basement Of the
department store and gained headway
because tho fire alarm system failed TO
work. The flremen fought in downpour
Of rain and In streets thronged with
thousands Of Inauguration visitors. The
Kaufman store, which ls a total loss
will be rebuilt at once.
The injured firemen are: William
Smith. Harry Corkle, Samuel Diener,
Harry Enders, Wayne Desilney and Joe
o'Ieary. Policeman George Shoemaker
also was slightly injured. All will re-
cover.
For a time the fire threatened the en-
tire business block on South Market
Square and residents hurriedly packed
office furniture and household articles
to be carried to places OF safety. Alex
ander Roberts, an aged member of one
of Harrisburg's oldest families, who has
resided on Market Square for more than
60 years, was reused from his bed by
fremen, but refused to leave his home
until all of his family portraits had been
removed.
The defects in the flre-alarm system
developed after the first alarm. An
under control" signal was sent in and
kept some of the companies from re-
spending. The fremen were hindered in
their work by the dense smoke and n
brisk wind, but were aided by the heavy
rainfall
