A new buyer rules in the toy department.
Like every other new buyer he has decided
views on “what's what.” He believes “that
we have too many toys,” “that some lines are
slow sellers,” “that w T e ought to slash prices to
move the toys now.” All right. We can’t ex

Expert Who Is Showing Atlanta
Society New Dances Talks of
Their Origin.
Comes a defender of the much-
flouted, much-maligned tango in the
person of charming Miss Donna Bain.
But the turkey trot—horrors! Miss
Bain positively shuddered Tuesday
when it was suggested that her com
mendation might extend to this other
modem dance.
“Oh, my, no!” she exclaimed, w'ith
a scandalized expression. "I can’t
even bear to think of it. Believe me,
1 don’t dance it. Why, I may say I
don't even know' how—and that is
saying quite a little, for I pride my-
seif on knowing most of the dances
of American and foreign origin and
knowing them w'ell.”
It probably is just as well to ex
plain right here, although most At
lantans know it, that Miss Bain Is an
authority on dancing.
She Is an Atlanta Girl.
She is an Atlanta girl, but for the
last six years she has been in New
York, part of the time giving expo
sitions of the old and modem dances
at fashionable teas and other exclu
sive functions, and more latterly
teaching the people of the ultra smart
set how the best of the popular dances
should be executed.
She has made herself a student of
dancing, not only in America, but
abroad as well. What she doesn’t
know about the pedigree and per
formance of dance steps ancient and
modern Is hardly worth adding to
one’s store of knowledge.
And it was plainly evident in her
conversation Tuesday that she didn’t
think much of the lineage of the tur
key trot. The tango—that was differ
ent !
“Nothing In the modem dances so
much resembles the stately old min
uet as does the tango,” she vouch
safed. “That Is why I like it. It is
the most beautiful dance I ever have
seen w lien it is danced prof>or]y.
There isn’t any undignified ‘rompish- I
ness’ about it.
Calls Turkey Trot “Horrible.”
“It is the dance of the ultra set.
In its present form it originated with
the best Parisian society. The real
people don’t go in much for the’ other
sort of dances—like the turkey trot,
I mean.
“The turkey trot—that’s horrible,
particularly the wriggling of the
shoulders and the other outlandish
movements. The slums of San Fran
cisco gave America the turkey trot
That orobably, accounts for Its unlove*
ly and ungraceful characteristics.”
Miss Bain is the daughter of Don
ald M. Bain, an Atlanta insurance
man. During her brief visit in At
lanta she Is a guest at the home of
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Ellis, No. 1
Peachtree circle. Mrs. Ellis is her
mother's sister. Miss Bain is demon
strating the new dances with Donald
Crane at the Piedmont Driving Club
while here. She will leave imme
diately after the holidays.
FIGHTS THIEF OF POOR.
JOLIET, ILL., Dec. 16.—Seeing a man
armed with a long knife robbing the
poor box in St Mary’’s Church, Father
J. O. Murray, the rector, fought for an
hour with the thief. The priest was
sitting on his captive wh*m the police
arrived.
Lad Who Fell From
Tree Is Near Death
FAIRBURN, Dec. 16.—Roy Godwin, 8
years old, will probably die of a frac
tured skull and broken left arm, sus
tained when he fell from the top of a
40-foot pine tree near here.
Alfred Godwin, an older brother, cut
the tree down, not knowing that Roy
had climbed it and was sitting in the
top limbs.
