Gated. social dancing OF the peasants
which is sprung from the hearts of the
people
To the strains of merry tune. Irish
lads in black suits, stove-pipe hats and
lace frills danced opposite their partners
clothed in green native costumes of their
country. "Espanita.' a Spanish dance
was much applauded for Its beautiful
girls and exquisite grace. Next was the
"Ox dansen,' mock fight, and truly
ferocious it appeared to the onlooker.
After this was the stately minuet danced
with such dignity and charm that it
carried many back to the old governors
ball in our southern States.
Very typical of the Danish people was
the shoemaker's dance. consisting of
winding and unwinding thread and put
ting in pegs. To the strains of the we'll
known Dixie" sailor boys and girls
danced an American folk dance. This
was the last of the popular folk dances
All girls participated in the grand
finale. The three letters L. V. NJ. were
formed and as the first notes of Cham
plain" We're played, each girl held forth
a heretofore concealed Vermont banner
Much credit is due Miss Cram, the gym
nasium instructor. who has put so much
time and effort into making this one of
the best exhibitions ever staged by Uni

night in the university gymnasium at
the annual sophomore hop. given by the
class of 1921. The gymnasium was very
pretty decorated with vari-colored
streamers Of ribbon hanging about two
feet over the heads of the dancers and
forming a bank of color. Music for an
order of q dances was furnished by Zita's
seven piece orchestra. imported for the
occasion from Albany, n. Y. The or
