Dancers Arc Supreme.
Michel Fokine. creator of the new
ballet russo, and his lovely wife and
pupil. Vera Fokina. who Will ap-
pear at the Acadmey on February %.
have the power TO hold audiences
spellbound.
This pair OF dancers are supreme
in their art, which will stand until
the end of time as the most wonder
full OF arts. Fokine possesses a mag
retic personality and dances with
fervor ana 2cst which paints hts
dances on the minds of his audience
In n manner which they could never
forget. He Is thoroughly masculine
and yet possesses a grace which
many of the fairer sex would fain
to have. "Panaderos" was perhaps
his most popular dance. and so great
was the applause that he repeated
it. ''Bacchus," another Of his num-
b"r. was equally fine. the tormcr
being a gypsy number and the latter
Greek.
Fokina's "Salomc" was superb, the
beautiful dancer injecting passion
coquctry and fire into her work as
she danced the dance of the seven
wells. "The Dying Swan" as pre-
sented by Fokina. brought tears 10
the eyes. the number being tragedy
exemplified. Dance Zigane," another
solo number, was jay, hap
ny, carefree gypsy dance. which was
further enhanced by the exquisite
coloring In her gown.
