THE NEW DANCES
There lias b«eu so much said iu
papers all over the country re
cently in regard to the styles, of
dancing now in vogue, that tjie fol
lowing description of . new steps that
are taking the Pacific coast towns
by storm will prove of interest to
peopU', even though they do not
themselves take pari it the "trip
ping of the light fantastic:"
Portland Telegiam: One does not
need to be athletic, or particularly
agile, or even young, to learn the
tow da ices which will become the
r-. * according to the dancing mas
ters. They have adopted three
dances, for which they claim all
the grac<» and e; se. simplicity and
propriety there is, and none of the
objections found iu other prevailing
dances.
From all over the L'nited States
and Canada the dancin .» masters as
sembled at San Francisco in an
nual convention. >
The now dances must be open to
less criticism, the dancing masters
deciatd. This thought governed
the'r selections and rtcommenda
tioas. So the tendency is toward a
ret'-:n to the stately old minuet
and a revival of the scliottischa.
The measure will be slower, in
the new dances, and the embrace
will be less iutiniate. The styles
are upright and ca'.l for smooth
gl dis. Movements of the body or
shoulders are uuder the official
tui>oo of the dancing association.
luus the masters expect to
trinf great joy to the hearts of
go'J people who love dancing. The
Balbir one-step and the canter
wa.tz are two dances officially
adoD:.ed by the association. The
third the Ringler schottische, was
ori^'nated by M. >f. Ringler, of
Portland, who returned home vester
day.
Another dance which was recom
mended and approved was the
Novaeem, or exposition waltz. It
is dedicated to the Tower of Jew
els at the exposition. Others sim
ilarly approved were the blow fox
trot, the new one-step and the Am
erican gavotte, i
In the California building, at the
exposition grounds, a .thes dasant
was given for the dancing masters
after the convention. There. were
4000 people present. Before this
throng all the new dances. wore
demonstrated and exhibited. They
took like wildfire.
Because they were bo easy, so
graceful and pleasing, they were
taken up at once by the public, Mr.
Ringler says. When he .left the
Bay Cilf the gymnastic and athletic
dances were going into .the discard.
The grills and cafes were crowded
with people dancing the.new dances,
tH' sars, and dancing them beautiful
ly. :
Douglas Island News: .Douglas
has a lot of people who are never
happy. No matter when you meet
then- they alwaya have a tale of
woe. At times they almost cry.
They seldom laugh—life is too
[Serious. Many business .men be
?iu to look sorrowful when you ask
them "How's business?" .and they
immediately tell you how hard up
they are, and how business 'has
gone to the demnitlan bow-wows;
and you go your way with a bad taste
in your mouth. Don't do It. Laugh
and be gay. Douglas people have
no leason to be unhappy. If troubl
comes, let us be brave. Think
about the people in Europe,, many
of whom are starving, but they are
doing it bravely—we might . sa.y
cheerfully. The soldiers in the mud
d\- trenches are laughing and sing
ing songs, while the bullets -whistle
over their heads. Yet we cravens,
living in this land of plenty, where
none ever starve, where the hot,
searing brand of war does not
touch, g-rumble and growl mostly
about nothing. Cheer up and be
happy:. |

The Mole.
The most courageous of all llrtn
things Is, by common consent of nul
uralists, the mole. Seemingly withou
any sense of fear whatever, the mo!
will fight anything that crosses it
pgth. Neither giving nor asking quui
ter, it tears away at Its adversary ui
til it kills it or Is itself killed. Th
mole's appetito Is In keeping with it
courage, aud It thinks nothing of ea
lng Its own weight. In appetite th
spider 1s a close second to the moli
but when It comes to fighting the mol
carries the palm.
