with dancing. None OF our parents
objects to dancing. il is their
parents who do. and our parents
arc afraid Of what the older peO-
pie will say.
I'm sure you know how older
ladies are. those who have retired
from the farm and have nothing
to do but gossip. Ninety-five per
cent Of the kids dance, only they
60 to a town 20 miles away to do
il. We have had just two parties
where we danced and they turned
out successfully. Please tell me
how we can make the older people
understand that we just want to
dance. The fact is. l am almost
sure that they all danced folk
dances when they were young
sterS. JAN.
Dear Jan:
Since your parents are not against
dancing 1 suggest group of teen
ayers meet with some of them and
see if you can work out plans to
have q dance. The group of high
school youngsters I sponsor always
has one chaperon for every 10 boys
and girls. So. accordingly. if 40
attended the dance. two adult cou-
piles would be necessary for chap
erones You might even ask one Of
the less prejudiced older couples to
act as chaperoneS. so they could see
for themselves that your group
knows how to behave.
I do not know the teen-agers in
your high school, but 1 do know
that all teen-age dances are not
drinking bouts. Just recently my
husband and l chaperoned a high
school dance and nothing diSorderly
or unpleasant happened during the
whole evening.
