JAZZ STEPS GO,
OLDONESRETURN
Dancing Masters Start
Nationwide Reform
Movement
I. NEW YORK, Jan. 13.—01d-fash-j
i ioned, keep-your-distance dances, are
to displace the modern jazz steps,
i if the nation-wide reform movement
undertaken by the American Nation- j
al Association of Masters of Dancing ■
proves successful. The dancing mas-i
ters, it is announced here, count upon
the support of mothers, fathers, i
daughters, sons, i.all proprie- |
tors, dancing teachers and hostesses '
and it nee ‘.-sary the police depart- 1
merit —to exterminate the "half Nel
sdn, "bed' hold," “shimmy lock”
and otb'-r imported balirooin grips'
which are practiced by some dancers.
Cheap and vulgar music is also to
come under the ban and. according
to a circular just issued by the asso
ciation, those in .charge of communi
ty or public dances are urged to show
their opposition to undesirable
dances by distributing “You will
please leave the hall” card to those
who persist in offending.
The women, it is charged are often
as much to blame as their partners
and, in some cases, dance hall pro
prietors are advised to pick out ten
or a dozen objectionable couples and,
if a warning is disregarded, to oust i
them at once.
To Raise Standards.
“You will soon see,” the circular
reads, “that you have raised the 1
standard of your establishment and 1
that the loss will be more than made 1
up by double the number of persons 1
who have respect for you and your
dances.” 1
Some of the rules and regulations 1
which all are urged to obey follow: 1
“Dance music should be bright 1
and cheerful, properly accented and
i the phrases well divided. Cheap, vul- ;
■ gar music of the extreme ‘jazz’ type
j invites cheap, vulgar meaningless :
dancing. It is useless to expect re
i fined dancing when the music lacks
all refinement, for, after all, what
lis dancing but an interpretation of
[ music?
“The association has adopted the
i following tempos, it being impossi-
■ ble th'e masters say, to regulate last
1 dancing:
I “Waltz, 48 measures to minute.
“Two-step, 54 measures to minute.
“One-step, 66 measures to minute.
“Fox trot, 40 measures to minute.
I "Dancers should assume a light,
graceful position,” say the masters.
■ "There should be no jerky half-steps
for these cause undesirable varia-
' tions.
Parners should not dance with
cheeks close or touching nor should
the clasp be tight. ‘Neck holds’ are
positively unpardonable. The gentle
man’s arm should encircle his part- j
ner’s waist, his hand resting lightly j
i just above the waist line. The lady's
I left arm should not encircle her part-1
ner’s shoulders or neck. ■
Short Steps Not Refined.
“Steps or movements that cannot
be controlled should not be taught
by dancing teachers. Short side
steps, first right, then left, when done
I continuously, are not conductive to
I refined dancing and should not be
permitted. ‘Shimmy dancing,’ a
I shaking or jerking of the upper part
[ of the body while, taking short steps
or standing still, should not be tol
erated.
“The proper dancing step should i
be the same as a natural walking i
one except in exhibition dancing, '
which properly belongs to the stage, I
not the ballroom. Exceptionally long
or short steps are not in good form. 1
“Dancing should be from the
WHAT OXYGEN DDLS
FOR THE LIVING BODY
Without it—there could be no living body—since without oxygen
there cannot be any life.
Oxygen acts on the blood, and by
constantly cleansing and revitalizing
it, converts the blood into a vigilant
guardian against the insidious attacks
of disease. It assists every natural
force in the body. It makes it possi
ble for the blood to build up—what
the stress of daily activity, over
work, over-exertion, and Wi.r-taxing
of the body—tears down. Waste
I products are cast out —new cells
[ grow—-the hollow cheeks fill out and
I take on the ruddy glow of health. The
spring comes back to the step, the
whole body tingles with health and
vitality, while the brain is cleared
to meet the battle with the problems
of life.
If the supply of oxygen is not
sufficient—the engine runs down—
vital force wanes —the fire goes out —
and the whole machinery of the body
stops.
But when the blood is vitalized
with oxygen—the complicated struc
ture of the cells of the body is brok
en down, and the energy liberated—
that drives the human engine.

costumes like the new suspender i
dress in the picture. It is made of j
navy tricotine. The skirt, though
amply wide as a young girl’s should
be, is entirely straight in outline,
setting off thus the liberal flare of the!
cape. To be very much up to the
minute, this will be lined in tan taf-;
feta, in whose rustling softness there
is that alluring suggestion of luxury
and romance or intriguing to the
imagination of youth. The tam-o’- j
shanter held by this airily stepping
miss is made of a left-over piece of
the taffeta, enforced with a lining of
the tricotine.
Although a crepe de chine or Geor
gette blouse in tan would be the
most suitable, any blouse may be
worn with this charming outfit,
which is so admirably adapted to
the service requirements of a school
girl-that it may rightly be called an
“efficiency dress.”
