but there has been a wave OF sen
timent in favor Of reviving this
classic old dance that proved TO be
the determining influence. In the
East the people seem TO have gone
in quite strongly for the new
fad.
E1appers to Aid
Until recently Il has been largely
confined 10 the older people, al
though now the fappers and their
escorts have begun 70 take quite an
interest. The waltz is quite an inno-
walton for the younger set as most
of them are practically inexperi-
enced in its mysteries. Just how
they will react towards it remains
10 be seen. There is some doubt
about their taking il over intact. IN

undergo transformation than 20
remain the same as Il was 90 years
ago. Perhaps II will not be changed
so that il is recognizable, but II
certainly seems doomed TO be alter
ed. The youngsters OF today have
been reared in an atmosphere that
would cause them TO regard the old
dances "a too slow" They may ap-
preciate their beauty or their grace,
but dignity is beyond their widest
conception. Unless some change
takes place. they will feel aghast at
the slow circTing steps OF the revived
waltz. The time may be at hand
however. when all this has become
novelty which viii instantly find
immense favor. II may be also. that
the waltz viii come back just as II
used 20 be, but the chances are
against that. II what has happened

taken as an ind cation.
