DANCERS NAME
RAG-TIME KING
Jewellers at Legion Hop
Elect Clarence Howe a
Piano-Winner.
MUSIC AND MAGIC

Can they do it? You tell 'em PEN
dill, I'm Lowe. No need to leave it to
Pendill, however, for anyone who at
tended the American Legion dance at
the Coliseum Friday evening will tell
'em that it was the best ever. Persons
who attended the first midsummer
dance at the Eagles Hall last week
were lavish in their praise but didn't
think the jolly time could be repeated.
But the entertainment committee
showed them last night that they were
past masters at the art of staging
series. of dances, each succeeding affair
surprising the previous in patronage
and camaraderie. The huge Coliseum
was attractively decorated for the af-
fair and prettily shaded lights blinked
mischievously upon the maze Of
thousand jewellers. Masses Of gorge
Gus Dunmovin peonies were used as
the floral motif. The frilly pastel-col-
ored frocks of the girls added the fest
i've summer touch. Clitheroe's orches-
ira played program of delightful
dance music.
Features of the evening were the
prize waltz and time piano con-
tests. The floor was cleared for the
waltz at ten o'clock. The lifting, roll
licking melody tempted each man to
choose maid for the event of the
evening. A committee, headed by Mr..
Blondin, watched the dancers and
finally singled out Thomas Howe and
Miss Mary Loeffler for the prize.
That Rag-Time Contest.
The rag-time contest was held at
eleven o'clock. Much interest was
manifested in the jolly innovation and
each contestant was enthusiastically
applauded. Those who participated
were Mrs. Frank Dexter, Mrs. Grace
Brewer Parks, Vernon Hcff, George
Dorsey and Clarence Howe. Awards
were given to Clarence Howe, George
Dorsey and Vernon Hoff. The deci-
sions depended upon the audience.
Each contestant was brought before
the public after the contest and the
award given to the three who received
the most rousing welcome.
The American Legion dances have
come to occupy an active place in the
social calendar of thousands of Keno
shans and there will be much eager
anticipation for the third midsummer
dance which will probably be given in
two weeks.

five years ago. At the present time
there are thirty federated clubs in the
state and she has made plea for one

was discussed but the plan in full is
not ready for publication. Mrs. Sta

come interested in the zone festival
work and to further actiNties in a iu-

point was the fact that Wisconsin is
the only state to award cash prizes to
Wisconsin and American artists. Thus
