mlcal movement, we are only completing
the circle of all the ages and In Its ex
pression of human Joy dancing gives
thanks for existence even while It bene
fits physical existence with wondrous
efficacy.
Today I am giving you two exercises
which I Incorporate In my dancing and
which I have copied directly from two
fascinating little Greek bronzes. The onq
Is called "The Praying Hoy," and-'tfiq
other is a "Dancing Maiden." Ono "is n
very simple movement yet It brings about
wonderful co-ordination of muscles, and
has a wonderful value In arm develop
ment from shoulders to fingertips. The
other, which Is a difficult and compli
cated step, Is well worth a careful study,
for It will give flexibility of waist and
back, grace' of arm, arched insteps and
a Utile, swaying carriage. Quito a wt
for one exercise, Is It not? Now lot mo
go Into detail and, prove my assertions.
Figure 1 The praying boy figure may bo
copied with' an ease that Is deceptive
for the grace that comes from absolutely
knowing how to control ' your" muscles
with ease and smoothness la haid tu ac
quire. Advance the weight on tho ball
of tho right foot, and stand poised thus
lightly with tho lifted heel and' ball of
the left foot, leaving only the toes on
the ground.
Sway from foot to foot, changing' the
weight to the forward foot. When you
have mastered ease in this part of the
movement, combine It with tho arm ox
erclse shrug the shoulders as high as
possible, at the same time raising the
arms from the olbowa with down dropping
wrists and woll'separatod fingers.
When tho forearms are completely
raised at the elbow raise, the wrist, and
gradually diminish the uplift of the
shoulders. Practise this again and again,
swaying from foot to foot tho while; then
walk forward, practising the arm exor
cises as you move. The shoulder shrug,
glng wll develop the shoulders In rounded
srace, and will also stretch the waist
muscles taut and firm.

bending the weight gradually backward
as yoi move. When, you jiave learned to
keep your pose while doing this xrclx,
try r with the flexed body a-swav from I
tide to fclde. and then final!) add the '
arm movement wh.r-n should lx dene in '
opposition to the leg mtAfmcnt
when the weight is advancing to the for
ward right foot, 'bend the body to tho
right, with tho arm In a perfect curve
drawn from waist lino to elbow,' and from
elbow to wrist the forearm In a second
curve circling" tho head. While the left
foot Is hclc) back the right arm la for
ward In a graceful horizontal curve. With
the line of the torso stretched back wulk
slowly forward, swaying from side to

These exercises are well worth fa '
ful practice and fiom them It is possible
to develop graceful movements of the
danco and graceful control of the human
body two consummation's devoutly' to be

This Is advlco

Thero was nqver
a time whon th
need for women to becomu wise was co
great nn It Is now. Their rights, per
sonal, political, commercial, Involve a
concomitant responsibility.
