Miss Dana Presents Spirited Dance.
"conventionalized fandango" Is
the way Viola Dana describes a dance
she does in "The Only Road" a Me-
tro Ali-Star Series picture which will
be presented at the Pastime theater

art Of dancing, as all who have seen
her spirited Spanish dance I'm 1.-The
Winding Trail" viii doubtless attest.
As Nita. in THE Only Road" the
tiny star filings her toes about in thor
ough abandon atop a rough table in

calls her dance a "conventionalized
fandango" is because It is a sort OF
rhythmic potpourri. 1t is part fan.
dango. part tarantella. part cobra de
capello and part Hawaiian hula. In
other words, Miss Dana does not do
all of the dance with her feet.

RED CROSS THE BENEFICIARY

In rather a novel way the Red
Cross has been made a beneficiary
in. the sum of two dollars and fifty
cents. The following recital of facts
will explain this donation. Mr.. ].
l.. Jordy, prominent citizen of the
other bank of the river was sum-
moned before the Traffic Court over
which Judge Thos. P. Golf presides
during the month of October for
speeding. Owing to his being called
out OF the city on important bust
ness the case was continued Mr.. Jor.
dy appeared before Judge Golf last
Friday to answer the accusation.
He stated that he operated a car 9
years and was very careful and that
perhaps the officer making the COM
plant could be mistaken. With
these contentious before him Judge
Golf, with the purpose of doing JUS
tice stated that he would postpone
the case, as the officer was not pres
ent being absent on leave. Mr..
Jordy said that coming back to court
again would interfere very much with
his business, and that he would
rather pay small fine than lose
time or that he would make a dona-
ton to the very worthy organiza-
ton, the American Red Cross, but
that he disliked very much that any
public record should appear against
him for having violated the law.
Under the circumstances Judge Goff
gave him the benefit of the doubt,
and accepted the compromise sug-
gested by Mr.. Jordy and turned the
amount over to the Red Cross.
