. The dance recital was in the
ballroom of a large hotel. When
Betty arrired the ball was packed
with the friends and relatires of
the performers. It was a fash
ionably dressed audience; as Bet
ty walked down the aisle behind
the usher she smiled, repeating
her little rhyme in tune to her
steps. .
The ticket Lois had given her
orchestra played the overture and
then the prologue was recited by
a pretty girl attired as a page.
The curtain went back, showing
the stage empty aare for a: piece
of maure snk in its center. 1

She rose gracefully. In time
to the music, she began a slow
dance, the tempo of which in
creased until she seemed to float
with the scarf. It wared In uni
son with her morements, j some
times high flung and at others
twined around her supple body.
Behind her 20 other girls
drifted in, their pastel-tinted
scarfs forming a background for

in the applause which followed
this opening number.
A curtain near the front ot the
stage dropped, tearing room for
a girl, who sang a song In a too
shrill roice but made up for -vocal
deficiencies by finishing with a
clog dance. Betty thought her
father would enjoy it, for the

and noisy enough to please a trap
drummer.
'The program specified' that en
cores were not permitted. After
receiring her well-earned applause
the clogger retired and the cur
tain rose behind her to show a
cabaret scene. : Around tables
were seated pupils not dancing
in this scene. The setting was ar
ranged to giro opportunity tor the
solo dancers and opened with a
llrely dancing chorus which did
a pretty soft shoe number.
Then the spotlight, played oa
a earner of. .the stage and Betty
got her first riew of her, friend
Lois. She was dressed as a wood
sprite. A garland ot leaves around
her loins and another across 4sr
chest constituted her costume. As

was much the same as hers, lear-
ing his splendidly dereloped body
almost bare.
The program titled the dance,
"The Pursuit" With turning
gesture, the "boy danced toward
her; with coy morements she
eraded him, while she lured him
on. Sereral times she slipped be
tween his outstretched hands.
Then he caught her, throwing her
high, where she posed lightly in
his arms.
"He tossed her aside to dance
away alone. She followed until
he turned, then leaped Into his
arms. Catching her, he put his
hand to the middle of her back
and held her abore his head,
steadying her with' the other hand
grasping her ankle".
Burst after burst of applause
greeted the rarlous figures of this
adagio number. When the boy
finally walked off the stage with
Lois draped orer his arm. the
show was stopped until they came
back.
To Betty the dance was abso
lutely charming. She began to
understand the lure Lois had for
men. She had learned gesture,
posturing, ' expression, and to use
her hands gracefully. No awk
ward girl could hope to Imitate
her unless systematically trained
to grace.
Betty was shocked at Lois' cos
tume, or rather lack of it. Not
only was she too tall erer to at
tempt such dancing, but Betty
felt ' she could nerer appear in
public with such absence ot cloth

Two bos did a clog; then the
stage was again, darkened and
the spotlight turned to one side.
Into the light cam a .dark girl
whose body was eridently pow
dered to make It darker. Her
torso was bare sare for a spangled
brassiere, but a Idng full skirt
corered her from hips down.
Her morements could not be
called dancing. They, were more
a panther-like glide, her bare feet
seeming' to slip along the floor.
To an Oriental air of strange min
orsshe took the center of the
stage, and began a motion which
could only be called undulation.
It commenced with her uplifted
hands, followed her arms and her
body to the hips. She began to
turn slowly. The weighted skirt
swung wide and at last stood out
straight from her hips, . tearing
her graceful and shapely legs
bare.
Betty - was uncertain whether
she was more shocked or delight
ed. There was something wild
and pdnritire about the dance.
She was fascinated. Her atten
tion was direrted by a man who
sat next to her. Half audibly a
long sibilant sound came from Ills
lips. It started la a low pitch
and rose gradually higher.
Ummmmmmmh!" he exclaimed.
His lips were parted, his eyes

coud get to the other side ot her
seat. Turning again to watcn me

The next number on the pro
gram before intermission was a
ballet of toe dancers which Betty
did not enjoy. The seeming effort
required to dance thus took from
the dancing whaterer beauty it
had for her. She was sorry for
