 Then to the fatties he cried out, We've given you a treat, no doubt. The monkeys staged the last act. That's the end of our fine show"
 The fatties all cheered long and loud. Then Scouty told the Tiny crowd, The animals will pull the cages back where they belong.
 "We'll hitch some up. and let some ride" "A good idea" Windy cried. Let's only hitch the beasts that we feel sure are good and strong"
 The fatties gladly lent a hand. You tots have treated us just grand" said one of them. We surely hope that you'H return some day" . Nr

The monkeys didn't seem to care what happened, as they flew through air. Their tricks upon the bars were just as clever as could be.
 Though Coppy warned them to look out. they kept on whirling all about. How they hang on," said Goldy, "is a mystery to me-"
 "They jump from one bar to the next and at no time are they per plexed. guess it's born in mon- keys to do crazy stunts like that.
 "Why, if I tried one little turn. I know I'd very quickly learn that I am very clumsy. I would miss and then fall flat"
 "Well, maybe you would make a mess with such performing. but I guess that I could do 1t, if I tried" said Duncy, with a grin
 "Go an," he heard somebody cry "We'd really love to see you try. v "Oh, mo-" said Duncy, rather weakly. "I'd be putting in"
 Son Scouty thought they'd seen enough. "The monkeys, now, have shown their stuff" said he. Back

won't attend dances Spon-
sored by various Slovak lodg-
es and clubs, because, they
say, they do not like to dance
the czardas - that it is on
ly for the old folks. It is
true that our parents like to
dance the czardas because
they have danced it in their
youth and it brings them
happy memories. It is a ma
tural tendency to cherish the
things of the past. And so
if the young people do not
like the czardas, who can
dictate to them what their
likes and dislikes should be?
But these young people
should remember also that
at these Slovak dances not
only is. the czardas played,
but also beautiful waltzes,
polkas and other dances.
Some young people present
the argument that they do
not like to mingle with the
older folks. Well that's true
too, that youth calls to youth,
and age to age. No one is
to blame for that. But it
certainly does good to have
the older and the younger
people get together socially,
once in a while, so that there
can be a better understand
ing and more appreciation
among them. Very often we
under-rate our parents; we
are ashamed Of them be-
cause they are foreign-born
and don't speak English as
we'll as we do, but we for
get that if our parents had
not come to America, we
would never be American
born, and that our fathers
toiled in mines and factories,
and our mothers kept board
ers and did housework from
morning until night, without
the conveniences that we
have today, so that they
could save enough money to
have their children educated
and give them the things
that the so-called Americans
enjoyed. Therefore we should
show some love toward our
parents, by enjoying our
selves together with them
sometimes.
On May 11th, the Youngs-
town Slovak Glee Club "Sla-
via" will hold a dance for
everybody. The orchestra
will play the latest popular
numbers which will be al
ternated with Slovak music.
This will be a Grand Get
Together Dance for all of
the Slovaks in our commun-
ity. There will also be other
attractions at this dance, but
the program is not yet COM
plete. Further announce
ments will be made in SUBJ
sequent issues of the Yo.

ENGLISH COLUMN
MUSIC, SONG AND DANCE

good music Is interpreted
into so many languages, that
we can hardly speak Of it
in the term Of nationalities.
We like a musical compost
ton, not because it is Slovak
or Spanish, or anything else,
but because it appeals to our
senses, because it is beauti-
full or exotic.
Songs, on the other hand.
are nationalistic, excepting
those which are universally
popular, and have been
translated into many tongues.
But folk-songs are truly ma
tionalistic; they tell Of the
nations loves and romances,
it's strifes and wars etc.
Some OF them are very old,
dating back to the remote
past when very few people
were able to write, and so
they put their stories into
songs, which have been hand
ed down to us, from genera
ton to generation, until the
present time. Perhaps there
isn't any other nation that
has more folk-songs than the
Slovak, which are very beau
tiful. No doubt, many of
the young American-born
Slovaks will be surprised to
know that the Slovak people
are a very romantic nation.
1t is true that before the
| World War, the Slovaks were
practically unknown, be-
cause for more than four
hundred years they were
under the Hungarian rule,
and were classed as Hun
garians. But, when at the
close of the war, the Czechs
and Slovaks gained their in
dependence, and Czecho-
Slovakia was put on the
map, the rest of Europe was
eager to know who these
Slovaks were. A certain wo-
man author from England
went down to find out about
them, and in her book she
writes that she was very
much surprised to find such
a romantic country, so that
she entitled her book, "Ro-
mantle Czecho-Slovakia"
This book can be borrowed
at the Public Library, and
every American-born Slovak
should read it. Most of us
are familiar with many of
the Slovak folk-songs, which
our parents taught US, or
| which we learned in Slovak
| schools. AS you read the
| above mentioned book, you
will come in contact with
familiar names of cities, vii
lagos, castles, etc., which you
have already heard in these
songs.
Every nation has it's ia
vorite dances, but, just like
music, dance can not be
spoken of in the term of ma
tionality, because it has an
effect on our emotions, and
not on thought, as songs do.
The czardas is popular a.
mong the Slovaks and Hun
garians, two nations diff
ferent both in race and Ian
guage, but which have many
things in common because
they have lived side by side
for hundreds of years. But
czardas is probably neither
Slovak nor Hungarian; very
likely it is of Gypsy origin.
Neither is American Jazz -
American in origin: it was
introduced by the Negroes
who came from barbaric A.
frica. Many of the young
Slovak people in America
