Star of ’‘The Marriage Market.'* Copyright, 1913, International News Service "(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' the legs are held rigid, | the movement 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.
