In the lightning flash with which a
drowning man sees the panorama of his

heard that afternoon.

Suddenly Holbrook spied a crumpled

But no there were thousands of Killer '

and picked up the flower—in another

the pocket of his coat, but Chief Ixtmp-

that a written description of HiIf

dilate because tbe steps fere origi
uaJ and not at all easy to learn
or to understand, either, for the.i
matter. And, although I have
threat hopes for those who have
experimented with a great many of
the new dances, still the dance
should really be seen in order to
perfect this sixth movement as
well as the fifth. However, those
who are familiar with the scis
sors step will have very llttln
trouble in catching on to this
slight variation.

The Drag
By DONALD BRIAN.
Star of ’‘The Marriage Market.'*

"(HE sixth movement ol the
Futurist Twirl is a still fur
ther elaboration of the tin
key trot.
it begins with a drag forward,
the jnan siaiting with the light
fool, the girl backward with the
left foot, as in the picture, and
the man going forward with the
left and the girl back with the
right, to make two drags or four
counts.
This drag is simply a skip done
slowly. Then there are eight
hops, or eight of the dragging
steps done rapidly, very rapidly,
so as to make them almost a skip.
This rapid movement may be hot
ter known to dancers of to-day as
the scissors step.
The legs are held rigid and the
movement of four counts ends
with the pose in the second pic
ture finishing up the eight counts
of the music, the left foot of the
man across the right foot of the
girl. Don't forget, to have your
music right with you—hum if you
have nothing better—for this dance
depends on the lilt of a good tango
for its better understanding.
This i>osition in the second pic-
Do Y ou Know—
j In the '' drag'

ending with
j the pose in
j the top picture
The Skirt.
ture is exactly the position for the
beginning of the scissors step also,
so that when it is practiced it will
help a great de?il to fall into the
position immediately.
After the sixth movement eight
more counts of the turkey trTif are
added, and then a repetition of the
fish walk described in the third
movement.
Of course it can readily be seen
is now revealed. And I hope by
this time its intricacies have been
mastered by many.
At any rate, it has been a. gmi
ification to me tc\ see it danced
this Winter, and I have no dnlibt
that I shall some day stumble upon
some of my pupils who have faith
fully studied my directions through
these columns, and who will dance
it a great deal better than I do.
