It is said that any amusement j-which attracts widely must be con sidered from time to time to de termine : whether or not it meas ures up to the standards of. the majority of the people. It is perhaps 'easier i'or a few to misrepresent the .majority in dancing than in almost t anything else. With the idea of r i: ta nrlorrl tvirt tr rlanrinor flirt nirirn I national association of masters of oancing, at rneir conierences in iNew York City, launched a campaign for " dancing that can in no way offend the most lefmed tastes. The asso- iVciation maintains that slncf dancing in an ''interpretation of music' cheap, vulgar music of the extreme jazz type, invites cheap, vulgar, Meaningless, dancing." The following tempos have been adopted: tValtz: 48 measures to minute; two step, 54 measures to .minute; lone-step, 66 measures to minute; fox trot, 40 measures to the minute. The music should be bright and "cheerful, properly accented and the -phases -well divided. The "Ten Plain IDon'ts" issued by the association are practical and worthy of ensideration. Thcy are as follows: J 1. - Don't permit vulgar, cheap jazz music to be played. Such music al most forces dancers to use jerky tbalf steps and invites immoral varia tions. " visitxwith Mrs. Clark, however, was entirely social in its nature. In Honor of Mrs. Hanighen. . Mrs. John J. Hanighen, jr., who is visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. John J. Damrjch, at Mobile, Ala., has been honored at a .number of af fairs given in her honor. Mrs. Dam rich entertained at a bridge tea for her daughter.

Oftimes this is the- fault of the gentleman's partner. Both dancers should as sume a .light, graceful position. 3. DonH, permit partners to dance with cheeks close or tuuehing. When dancers put their eheeks together it is simply a case of public love mak ing. ' - i 4 Don't permit "neck holds." The gentleman's arms should en circle his partner's waist, his hand resting lightly at her spine, just above the waist line, and lady's left arm should not encircle the gentle man's shoulders or neck. 5. So-called "shimmy'' dancing is a shaking or jerking of the upper body while taking short steps, or standing still" and should not be tolerated. Short side steps first right, then left, when done continu ously are not conducive to refined dancing and should not be per mitted. Teachers should not teach any steps or movements that can not be controlled. 6. Don't permit dancers to take either exceptionally long or short steps. v The proper ' dancing step should be the same as a natural walking one, except in exhibition dancing, which belongs to the stage and not to the ballroom. 7. Don't dance from the waist up; dance from the waist down. 8. Don't permit dancers to copy the extremes that are now used on the modern stage. 10. For the bnefit of refined peo ple, don't hesitate to request ob jectionable dancing couples to leave the room. Remember that the ma jority of people want to dance clean.

SCHOOL boards all over the country are recognizing the need cf higher salaries for teachers to meet the increased costs. Salaries are being raised in spite of contracts made some months aga calling for a specific sum as oav- ment for the school year. The board ot education in Des Moines recently voted a 10 per cent increase in their pay roll for teachers in their citv. The raise becomes effective Mon day, January 26. Unlike -many in creases, this one begins with those receiving the lowest salaries and diminishes, as it reaches , those "higher up." I herefore, teacirers receivme the lowest wages will get an increase of 20 per cent, those getting more will receive a slightly smalkr per centage of increase, and so op up to the higher salaried teachers, who will get abnut 5 per cent more, while 20 of the highest salaried will get no increase at all. Dispatches of January 22. an nounce that the teachers' strike in Chicago has resulted in an average increase of $50 a month, effective after February 1. v, Miss Stearns in Portland. Miss Lutie Stearns of Milwaukee. club woman and social service worker, who spent several weeks in Om iha last spring, is now in Port land, Ore., in the interests of the na tional dairy council. "A Woman's Opinion of an Ideal Democracy" was the subject of a recent address given by her before the Civic league there. According to the Portland Oregonian, she said: 'Democracy should be brother hood interpreted in terms of government." The problems of the asre which must be solved before an ideal de mocracy is possible, she specified as social problems capital and labor, poverty, the wage system, industrial disturbances, accidents and sickness. Poverty she classed as a social dis ease, which wiH vanish with the ap proach of democracy nearer to the deal. J he ideal democracy will also see to -,t, she said, that motherhood properly recognized and that proper aid and education are given o the mothers before' and after die birth of the ih'lu.

Suffragists are elated over the rapidity with which ratifications of the federal suffrage amendment are falling into place. "Two a week, says Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, contentedly, speaking of this week's harvest, Oregon and Indiana, is pretty good average, although we are looking for a final blaze of glory in which all the unratified states will scurry to get on the honor roll of Jb ratifying states. It is "not going to be pleasant for the women of any state to rave history record that they were finally enfranchised by th men of states other than their own." "Last week .the honor roll added two states. Kentucky and Rhode Island. Tnis week Oregon and In diana. It is interesting to note how often the east and the west, the north and the south have been bracketed in ratification gains. Cali fornia and Maine came in together. so did New lork and Kansas, so did Minnesota and New Hampshire. We take this to be indicative of a new bond of union which will be cement ed by, the enfranchisement of wom- Indiana in writing its name on the honor list of 06 ratifying states, completed a varied and interesting chapter in the history of woman suf frage after a strenuous campaign by the Women's Franchise league of which Miss Helen Benbridge isnow president. Under the Ipadershin of its retir ing president Mrs. Richard E. Ed wards of Peru, a business partner in the Peru chair works, the Franchise league achieved three brilliant vie tories. It gained presidential suf frage in 1917, regained it in 1919, and after a long effort succeeded in gain ing a special session for ratification on January 16, 1920. Y. W. C. A. Dinner.

' SELAH1 Afternoon Coffee A woman never appears to better advantage than when presiding over the tea table, or coHee table, as the case may be. For this service a tea cart may be used, or everything may be brought in on a tray to a low table in the living room. An appealing informal afternoon refreshment combination consists of fruit salad, nut sandwiches and 'coffee eggnog. The portions of salad should be small and arranged individually on salad plates, with a garnish of lettuce. A seasonable combination consists-of squal parts of halved grapes, sliced apple, diced pineapple and bits of orange, put together with mayonnaise to mois ten. Lach salad may be decorated with halved grapes and a bit of candied cherry. The coffee eggnog should be made in tne Kitcnen. to do tins Drew some strong coffee, combing it with one-fourth the amount of boiling milk and allow three-fourths cupful to each person, pouring it on a well-beaten egg.

Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I have a sister, who was adopted by my aunt about '10 years ago on ac count of sickness tin mother's side of the family. Mother thought she could not support u two and . my grandmother because she was di vorced and had to earn tha money herself. My sister was adopted with the understanding that mother could Bee her at least four times a month; now my aunt will not let mother go near her. I do not know why it is, it may be that (she) my sister is getting a little sense now, for she Is only 14 years old. Sis has never heard the truth of this thing and therefore does not know, but, Miss Fairfax, it is not right for a foster mother to tell my sister lies aboat her real mother, Is it? I went to see her before Christ mas. Just as I got there she was ready to go downtown, so 1 .went with her. She would not let me, pay the car fare, and when we got in the car she would not sit with me. She deliberately eat with some one else. Do you think that is right for a sister to do to a 15-year-old brother? She is old enough to un derstand, isn't she? Whenever 1 go to see her I know I am not welcome, but I trs to make myself welcome. Now, Miss air. fax. what do you think mother and I should do. forget her, as I have tried to do, or what? Hoping to see my letter in print soon, yours very truly. MOTHER, AND I. I cannot understand this attitude of your sister. Either she is labor ing under a false impression, mis statements or falsehoods, or else she is just at that age where she doesn't know what' she wants. It is difficult for me to explain her actions, since have not heard her Bide of the story. Rings, Etc. Dear Miss Fairfax: I want to ask you for a little advice.

A Never Failing Way to Banish Ugly Hairs (Aits to Beauty) No woman is immune to super fluous growths, and because these are likely to appear at any time, it is advisable to always have some delatorle powder handy to use when the occasion arises. A paste is made with some of the powder and water and spread upon the hairy surface; in about 2 minutes this is carefully removed and the 'skin washed.
