" After the Ball"
And Old Waltz
Return to Fame

CHICAGO, June e.-The dear, old
dreamy waltz is coming back, and
the jazz dance is in its death
throes. This is the welcome news
spread today by delegates to the
National Association of Sheet Music
Dealers holding a two-day conven-
tion here.
Also the nut" songs are giving
way to the old favorites. such as
After the Ball. Sweet Rosie
O'Grady," The Rosary" Loves
Old Sweet Song" Publishers say II
costs about $4,000 to popularize
one Of the nut" songs and that its
average life lis about six weeks. As
for the old geographical songs about
somebody's home in Kentucky or on
the Rio Grande, they are dead be-
yond recall.
Reverting to dances, the waltz
is to have a decided renaissance,
bnt it will have more jazz and pep
injected into 1t until the pres
ent-day dancers recover in part
from the effects of the st. vitus
era.

the edifice is packed, hundreds Of be-

At nine o'clock the papal regiment
enters and makes room for the pOpe's
guard, which, with other ecclesiastics,
enters and takes up a position among
the diplomatic corps. About 8 80 the
music peals forth impressively, the
soldiers present arms, and then the
pope, attired simply in white, is car
ried In on his chair of state. AS he
proceeds up the aisle he blesses the
devout congregation to the right and
