LAST DANCES OVER

Young people OF Richmond have
danced their last one steps and
waltzes for a long, long time in the
Blues and the Grays' armories. The
dances tonight have been stponed
on account OF Influenza and the ad-
ministrative board voted yesterday
that the armories not be loaned for
dancing after October /. so this looks
like the light fantastic has been strip

last time. The loss will cause not a
little brainwork on the part Of the
heads OF many war benefit organiza
lions in this city who have used the
armories for balls during the past year
TO raise money for the Red Cross. the
library association and for the SOL
diers in camps and overseas. II will

plans for the coming winter will have
to be reorganized. but depend on them
TO find something equally as success
full as balls in the armory.
The step was taken by the admin

creased military activities In this city
and the need Of the large floor spaces
for drills. The Blues arr,ory was
granted the Medical College of Vir-
