 "The Prince oPwales" says Miss Adoree, lis as proficient in the rocker as he is in the -trot. The steps of the rocker are extremely simple.
 You start off by rocking three times from side to side, glide into the fox trot, then into g. few waltz steps and start over again with the rocking. It is a graceful dance. and even less strenuous than the fox-trot.
 The Prince of Wales is considered a good partner by the girls with whom he has danced. In choosing his part ners he is the most unselfish young man to be seen in any ballroom. He shows no favoritisrn'

WESTERN MEN
ARE WANTED FOR
PACIFIC FLEET

SAN FRANCISCO. - MAN the
Pacific feet with Western men," is
the slogan Of the intensive recruit
ing campaign launched on the coast
since the arrival Of the new Pacific
feet.
Men will be enlisted at wartime
pay for two, three, or four-year
terms. The shorter term is expect
ed to be especially attractive to
young boys just completing their
schooling. To these and all others
who enlist will be given opportuni-
ty, it has been announced, TO choose
the ship they wish to join. Cruises
to many joints in the Pacific at
frequent intervals also are expected
to lure many.
Manning the ships with Western
men, it is said, will tend to keep
individual ships permanently sta
toned in Western waters, as the
desire of the men and officers will
be to have their ships based at
home ports.
In this connection, some navy men
look to see some ships almost com
pletely manned by officers and
crew from an individual city or dis
trict at which it would have its
base. In the East, many times ships
have been transferred from one
base to another because a prepon-
derance of crew and officers lived
at certain port or base. .:....-~
