tile cast to represent nine life sized
dragons in bas relief. of various colors
yellow, purple, buff, maroon, orange
dancing gayly above emerald pillows
against a pale blue sky.
Doubtless one should not speak of

Delight a Throng

Michel Folxine and Vera Fokina, as

O'Clock the house hadabeen sold out
Fokine and Folrina caught thespectators
especially in their folk dances. These,
with their vigor, ease and grace, brought
tumultuous applause from every corner OF
the house. Ladow's very domestic and
Russian Dance of the Mosquito" with
the dream of the baby, was humorous and
very successful. In the mazurka the
bright colors against the black drop cur
tain in the rear of the stage, with the
shiny, glossy knee boots of the dancers
gave one the feeling that one had been
suddenly transported into the Poland OF
before the war. Glazounow's Pirate
was in magnificent form. He received
three encores.
The Dying Swan and Glazounow's
"Salome'' were well received. Fokina in
the first of these seemed to be slightly
nervous. but regained her poise when she
repeated the old favorite. In the latter

delightful. Her toe dancing, which at the
