Weird Dance
By TOrchlight

Taunggyi. Burma, May Pa. P,
by Mail-The recent Inauguration
of the Federated Shan states was
marked by a remarkable series of ex-
hbition dances. These included
tribal dances in which "a of the hill
tribes of Burma participated, as well
as the famous animal and bird dances
Of the Shans.
The entertainment took place in a
specially built arena with over 5000
spectators in attendance. Brilliant
and unusual lighting was a feature
of the occasion. The thoroughfares
leading to the arena were lined with
huge lamps in the shape of lotus
blossoms The governor, Sir Har-
court Butler, was escorted to his
place by 200 torch bearers, carrying
torches ten feet long and one foot
thick. made of bamboo and pine
chips.
In the opening parade, some of
the torches used were as much as so
feet in height and required so or 60
men to carry them. Each torch was
followed by several musicians who
beat tom-toms and played other
weird instruments.
OF the tribal dances those of the
Padaungs proved the most popular.
The Padaungs are noted for the
enormous rings they wear. The brass
rings worn about the neck, arms and
legs of one woman often weigh over
SO pounds. Those of the neck,
amounting to about Is pounds, are
considered the most important. Their
purpose is to efongate the neck. A
girl starts wearing such rings from
childhood: as the neck stretches. adj
ditional rings are added. The woman
who has the longest neck is consid-
cred the most beautiful and the most
to be desired as a wife.
The Shans in their dances disguised
themselves as animals and birds.
Buffaloes, elephants, tigers, bears and
cocks were among those represented.
A small dog which happened to stray
into the arena was so frightened by
one of the tigers that he hid his tail
between his legs and awaited in
terror the end which he thought was
about to come.
The Shan states, rich in agricul-
tural and mineral products, are in the
northeastern part Of Burma.

Varney.DriscoIl

Two popular Augusta teachers. of
this city were married in Livermore
Saturday evening, by Rev. +. P. Free
man of the Baptist church at East
Livermore. The principals were Miss
Vera f. Driscoll, at the head of the
commercial department of the Cony
high school. and Morris c. Varney,
supervisor of manual training, in the
public schools of the city. They will
take an extended canoe trip thru the
Belgrade chain of lakes, and will stay
for a while in Mr.. Varney's camp in
that neighborhood. Upon the opening
Of school in the fall they will resume
their positions in the Augusta school.
The bride is a very efficient in
structor. and has been located in Au-
gusta for three years, and for two
seasons has had charge of the state
wide shorthand and typeWriting con-
tests. She is a graduate of the Liv-
ermore Falls high school and of the
commercial college in Springfield.
Mass. She belongs to the Eastern
Star and is a member of the Maine
Teachers association.
The bridegroom has an unusual ex-
periencc in that he has lived in &c
states of the Union. This is because
of the fact that his father, the late
Prof. Edgar Dow Narney, who was
second cousin to Gen. Neal Dow. was
a prominent educator and was con-
nected with many schools, academies
and colleges. Mr.. Varney was born
in Colorado and received his educa-
ton in Delaware, Massachusetts,
Pennsylvania, Georgia and Maine. He
is a graduate Of Temple University
OF Philadelphia and he also attended
thcSGorham normal school in Maine.
During the world war he was chief
army inspector of ordnance, in the
Philadelphia fourth district. Mr.. VAR
ney started going to school in New
ton, Mass. He has cen principal of
the high school at Hollis center and
has only been in Augusta since last
October. When asked to state his
home he said he would have to have
a map first. His mother however has
recently moved to Sanford. Me.
He is a nephew Of State Senator
Alexander Speirs of Westbrook. In
cidentally Mr.. Varney is greatly in
terested in the development of the
rural schools. and believes that the
succeeding legislature We'll be more
liberal in their appropriation along
this line.
