He says also that the loan
is highly important from the

Doubtless. Therefore, let

The government might re-
member what the good French
cardinal said to the enthusiastic
young priest who sought to
stop dancing and drinking in
his parish: "You behave as you
should, but let them dance and
drink and forget their misery"
From snake-dancing Indians
to Civilized" Europeans hu-
man beings distinctly celebrate
important events with dancing.
Victories, defeats, joys, sor-
rows, even a horrible plague
will start a dancing craze-as
you may see by the famous
pictures of "The Dance of
Death"
Before men could talk they
had to do SOMETHING to
show their excitement, so they
danced. 1t will take a long
while for that to wear out of
