DANCING TAUGHT
IN GERMAN SHOPS
Mary Wigman, New SenSa-
ton, Tells Westinghouse
of Its Benefits.
BY GRETCHEN SMITH.

That latest dynamo of the dance,
Mary Wigman, the German fraulein
who has started awagging the terpsicho-
rean tongues of two continents, has
brought to Washington interesting adj
vice for the physically weary, the men
tally tagged and to mothers who cher
fish the belief that small daughters are
embryonic Pavlowas or Duncans
In Germany, Miss Wigman explains,
there has developed a general recogni-
ton of the health rehabilitating quail
tiles of the dance of -eXpression''-
that solo or group dancing wherein one
gives free rein to Self-eXpression through
the joyous rhythm of artistic dancing.
"All the So-called. modern dance
schools of Germany are interested in
this work" she declared. "In increas-
ing numbers, all classes of working girls
and women are attending dancing
classes after their days work is finish
ed. The managers of large stores have
come to realize the physical, as wen as
mental benefits, derived from this form
of relaxation, and in stores that can
afford to do so, dancing teachers have
been brought to the shops once or twice
q week to give the girls lessons in gym
nastic dancing"
Finds Washington RestfuI.
Looking upon Miss Wigman's lovely
figure, one is forced to admit that her
art has produced admirable results. In
an age when youth is at a premium
when those past 40" are refused work
because they are too old, it is an ex-
traordinary achievement for a woman
who frankly admits 20 years of expert
ence as professional dancer, to find
herself receiving such enthusiastic
plauditS.
81 have not been here long enough
to have formed any opinions" she said,
'but can say I find Washington de-
lightfully peaceful and restful after
New York.
Miss Wignlan was eXtravagant in her
praise of the Lincoln Memorial.
II studied the quiet and the calm of
that great face for several minutes" she
said. 1T seemed to me that all the
strength and the confidence Of your
great country was embodied in the ex-
preston on the face"
Easily Become ImitatOrs.
Returning to the subject of the dance,
she continued: There are some who
say have created my dance. That is
not 50. One cannot create dance. A
dance IS something which has grown
from all times. However, it is through
expressing ones personality that one
gives individuality to the dance"
Mothers should give children early
training in gymnasium work and physi-
cal exercises to make them 1.-the and
supple" she declared. But they should
not let a child start 'seIf-expression'
dancing at too early an age. A small
child is apt to become self-conscious.
They easily become imitators and lose
their freshness. I do not think any
one should start training for profess
sional dancing until at least Is years
Of age"

GENEVA, january 9.-The Leagues
Permanent Opium Board yesterday re-
ceived from a Turkish representative
Chevket Fouat Bey-details of Turkeys
manufacture and sale Of narcotic drugs,
over the extent of which the board has
been much concerned.
Turkey is not member of the League
of Nations, nor is it bound by any inter-
national opium treaty, its representa-
tive appearing at the invitation OF the
board
Chevket Fouat Bey reported there
were three factories in Turkey, handling
a total of 400 Kilograms of opium daily.
The factories are owned by furnish
nationals, he said and the government
does not intend for the number to be
increased.
There is no export license required
under Turkish law, but the authorities
are required to notify Immediately the
conSuls Of consignee countries when
such products are shipped. Despite
strict supervision, Chevket Fouat Bey
admitted that certain quantities pos
sibly escape to Illicit traffic.
He assured the board that Turkey was
fully prepared to cooperate with the
League in its efforts to suppress the
unlawful trading in opium.
