Beginners Class to Be Or ganized Tomorrow Even
 ing-Other Classes

| IloleSSOr Dan1el C. Qullty IS pre- | pairing to reopen his School of Danc- | ing and Department for its 17th sea- | son tomorrow evening at Colonial hall
 with a beginners class and on Friday | evening with a private class. Prof.
 Guilty has recently returned from New York, where he spent a month at the
 Chalif College of Dancing preceded l by week at the convention of the | International Association of Masters 1 of Dancing of the United States and 1 Canada. In addition to being first vice president of this organization, Prof. Guilty holds also the honor of
 the offices of trustee and supervisor.
 Miss Dorliska Chaffee, who assists MT. Guilty in his work in this city, was also an attendant at the convention while Harold Seltanreich, his other assistant, was made a member of the association and now has the title of Professor prefXed to his name. The convention each year decides upon the steps for the coming sea-
 son and as every dancing master of
 prominence in this country and Can ada is member of it and abides by
 its decision, it's influence is a powerful
 one. This year the greater part or the week was take up with ball.
 room work. All. freak steps and
 freak positions were eliminated and
 each dance brought, down to a com
 mon basis so that resident of Mon-
 treal and an inhabitant of San Fran
 cisco can fox trot together perfectly.
 Hitherto since the advent of the new
 dances it has been impossible for
 people of one set to dance with those
 of another without first learning each
 others steps. Now the waltz, one
 step and fox trot will be taught in but
 one way by the thousands of dancing
 masters throughout the two countries and it will befossible for one persons to go anywhere and dance with an- other without difficulty, providing both have had the proper training.
 Professor Guilty will teach these three dances in the form approved of by the convention to his class of be-
 ginners which opens tomorrow even ing.
 At the Chalif College of Dancing, where Prof. Guilty, Mrs. Guilty and Miss Chaffee spent month, they gave their time to the latest and most Rp- proved interpretive, classic and toe work which they will use this season in their young ladies' and children's classes.
 The children's class in dancing and department will be formed on Thurs day afternoon, Oct. 1 4, at 2:30 o'clock. | Prof. Quilty's childrens classes are famed throughout the community. It is to the child that dancing is most 1 important. To train the little muscles gracefully, is a duty of the parent, | while ease in social intercourse with l others of their own age should be one | of the first steps in education. Prof. | Guilty provides an excellent course in both of these.
 One of the most popular and at- ttractive classes conducted by this well known dancing master, is the High school class which will meet this season at 2:45 o'clock on Friday af- ternoons. As in the past this class will offer one of the most pleasant so- l. cia1 gatherings for the young men and , women of the High school with which they will meet in their school career. One of the best features of the class is that it is limited to students at the school.
 Advanced classes for High school pupils as well as advanced classes for children will be formed shortly and their time of meeting will be announc- ed later. The class which met last year at The Stratfield will be reorgan- ized this year, the time to be an- nounced later. \.
 Advanced classes for adults will be formed on Wednesday and Friday evenings, Oct. IS and 20, at o'clock. These classes will continue these II which were so popular last year. These afford a weekly recreation for people who know how to dance and who wish to keep in touch with the new steps as they should be properly learned. As these classes as we'll as the private classes for beginniners are noted for the social atmosphere which them, they will doubtless be even more popular this year than ever.
 The young ladies' advanced class in and classic dancing, the date of which will be announced later, will require a Grecian costume this season for the new work which Prof. Guilty will introduce.
 Anyone wishing private instruction in any of the ballroom, classic or in- terpretive dances can receive this from Prof. Guilty by communicating with him and arranging the time.
 Prof. Guilty is one of the most prominent <and active masters of dancing in New England.
