THE srniters of nbat society will and will not do are still hoping to
.standardize the dance, but Just whether or not they will succeed
is the question.
The freak dances,. ho wever, seem to be gradually disappear
ing from seiect drcies but dancing Is still going on.
In every hous, no matter what the function, the rugs are sure to
come up sooner or later and the 'party end In a dance. Really the only
way to kec. a rug on the floor nowadays Is to put H under the grand
piano. .
The dance Is eren influencing the personality of visitors.
There was a time, when brother, dear, announced that one of his pals
were to Tie it him, the foremost question asked by brother, dear's girl
friends was. "I be handsome?" or, "Who is he?" with an accent on tho
"who." But timet have changed and now the question Is, "Does he
dance?" f.'e may be a regular Caliban as to looks, and a mere nobody as
far as social registers are concerned, but he will hold his own these days
gainst a Oreek god if he-can dance and others caanot.

Down from the tiny town of Bedrock,
Wyo., came word from the railway mall
clerks that the postofflce was being "boy
cotted." "Jealousies or dlsllkea cause the occa
sional boycotting of Jourth class post
off Icea,"' said Superintendent Heed.
"These postmaatera get their fcay from
the stamps they cancel and. If the people
mall their lettera directly on the mall car
while the trains are stopping, the fourth
class poetmaster loses the value of the
stampa on lettera so mailed. But when
letters mailed on the car amount to 20
pen cent of the letters coming through the
postofflce we lock 4he car boxes. That
puts a stop to the boycott."
One fine morning, accordingly the In
habitants of Bedrock found that they
couldn't mall their letters directly cm the
mall car of the train. A polite clerk who
received Into the car the bag that hail
been brought from the postofflce In

banker, the local groceryman, the driver

He learned that Mlsa Charity Ooode

And so It went. The Inspector con
