Coatumea Flimiy.
Kot only the .bare feet, but "loo
flimy costume," was an objection
xoiccd to the aesthetic dance num
ber. "Nobody made that objection
when the girls danced in exactly the
same barefoot, crepe costumes at the
big school pageant "Nebraska,"
given last fall at the time of the
teachers convention." is a - point
made by Mrs. J. M. Betls, Sli North
Twentieth street, the indignant
mamma of one of the youthful danc
er. Ruth Betts.
"Besides that, our minister, Rev.
E. 11. Jenks, approved my daughter's
dancing," the mother continued. "I
asked him some time" ago if Ruth's
(lancing was compatible with her
church membership and lie said it
was; that such dancing was very
artistic."
Who They Are.
Some of the best known families
in Omaha are represented in the list
of censored dancers. Helena Clif
ford, daughter of Dr, and Mrs. Har
old Gifford;. Virginia Frantz, whose
mother, Mrs. R. L. Frantz, is a lead
rr in the Omaha Woman's club;
Kleanor Calvert, Marjory Pool, Mil
dred ICissen, Geraldine Mcfasters,
Ruth Bailey, Ruth Conningham,
Ruth Willinsky, Elizabeth Pugsley,
Margaret Logan, Phyllis Gallagher,
Bonnie Rugg, Frances Fetterman,
Krownv Bandy, Arline Rosenbcrry,
Mae Elliott, Ann Rosenblatt, Mil
died Osman, Mildred Jack, Geral
dine Wyckoff, Carmen Longman and
Kate Goldcnstein are the others.
The first the girls knew that they
were not to "go on" was when Miss
Jessie Towne, dean of girls, and
Miss Bess Dumont, physical instruc
tor, called them out or the dressing
room where they were all "made up,"
waiting- for their cue. They were
ftssembled in a class room behind
vlosed doors and the news broken to.'
them.
i icatner wuca.
Miss Constance Tlatt, gym teach
er who coached the dance number,
burst into tears. ' So did most of the
trir-U There were tears hi Miss
Townc's eyes, too, the girls said, av
she told them the sau news. ,
"It is an outside objection; it is
not one of school authorities," she
told the girls. : j
To prove the dean of girls' stand
that the dance is o. k., Miss Towne
promised the girls that they may put
on the dance for girls of the school
and their mothers some time next
week.
"It is too beautiful a dance not to
be shown and you girls have worked
so hard in practicing, so we will see
if we cannot find time this week to
give the , exhibition," said Miss
Towne. ,
The gym dancers have the sym
pathy of all the other girls in the
show cast.
"The dancers' dresses were no
shorter than burs; they come just to
the knees and many of us wear them
that short on the streets" chorused a
quintet, including: Eleanor New
branch, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Harvey '.New-branch; Jane Horton,
Frances Swift, Genene Noble, daugh
ter of Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Noble,
and Pearl Jones.
; The JHev. C E. Cobbey, president
of the Omaha Ministerial union and
pastor of the First Christian church,
was the "unknown power" .who
stopped a barefoot dancing number,
it was learned yesterday.
."The Ministerial union had noth
ing to do with it. however," explained
Mr. Cobbey. "I voiced some objec
tinne tn cui-ti rfanrincr before mixed
audiences at the behest of . several
parents who requested me to do so."
He declined to give the names of
two ministers who "accompanied him
on the mission or the names of the
parents who obketed.
He made it plain that he had no
personal objections to aesthetic danc
ing.
"I did not see the dances myself
so I couldn't make any criticism of
it. I made this plain to the members
of the faculty to whom I spoke."
Rev. Cobbey said he thought it
would be fine for the dancing to be
given for girls and their mothers.
"It is the mixed audience we object
to," he said.
. E. E. McMillan, assistant principal,
maintains that he and members of
the faculty still o. k. the dancing, but
thought it wise for the sake of the
school to accede to any objections
raised. -
Faculty " Approves.
"Naturally the faculty committee
approved the act omitted otherwise
those taking part would have been
notified much sooner. We still con
sider it suitable, but finding there
was to be considerable criticism from
the outside from those who hadn't
seen it we thought it best not to
subject those taking part in the act
to this criticism, for their own sake
and the sake of the school."
Here is the poetic dance theme
as described in the program: ;
."Maidens, "shimmering softly in the
first days of dawn, take in the glory
of. the sun. They play tn the surf
and express the joy of life in the
tresh morning air. They grow weary
?nd rest, watching the wonder of
the. glittering sea in silent testacy."

Is four yards of crepe too scant for a dance costume? Especially if
one wears heavy sateen bloomers and vest underneath ? .
Miss Ruth Betts, pretty dancer, who posed for The Bee in the expur
gated high school act costume, says. "No!"
So does her mother, Mrs. J. M. Betts, 512 North Twentieth street.
"This is the heaviest crepe I could get," explained the rrftther. "Look,
two Widths of it destroy all the peek-a-boo there is. And see all the full
ness there is to this costume!".
"The neck is as modest as it can be. - Many, women wear sleeveless
costumes for evening, and, as for the bare feet, every one knows the most
graceful dancers prefer to be natural and unconfined by slippers."

Resignation, Averted .
I ---2
Thevpossible resignation of Premier Lloyd George, of Great Britain,
has been temporarily averted, by efforts of 'his colleagues' to have Apo
litical foes :.of the. prime minister adopt a conciliatory attitude. The po
litical" crisis w hich caused Lloyd George to threaten resignation in a 'letter
to Austen Chamberlain has not completely passed, however. The premier
is fighting the hardest battle of his political career. His adherents claim
he will win. J It is predicted, however, that in the event he'loses he might
be succeeded by,-Arthurj J. Balfour; ; former1 premier,- who headed the
British delegation to the WashingtonvArms conference, orAusten Cham
berlain, leader, in the House of Commons. Lord Birkenhead, who has en
joyed a meteoric rise in British.polifics.'is-also said to be a possibility for
premier.. Sir George 'Younger, "Unionist boss," grouped around Lloyd
George with the aforementioned notables, is openly hostile to the retention

1'ortilied by this upcrlitious cov

swept the three momentous para
graphs.
"Dear Madame

"JOHN V. KEMBLE. Editor,
In the breathless exhilaration of th
next few moments, Helen, catchin
tip Pussy Purr-Mew, fiercely hugged
from her a protesting mew:
One hundred and fifty dollars! It
seemed incredible.
If she could write this one story
she could write more many, many
more! Her brain reeled before a stag
eeriiur line of figures.
And Warren 1 The joy of telling
hint! How she would now exult over
his disdainful scoffing at her literary
effort.
Ever since she had subscribed for
that mail course of "Short Story
Techniaue in Ten Lessons his rid
eule had been unmerciful. He had
termed the course a "fake" and her
resultant storv "rotten."
When she sent it to Stanford's
magazine he had snorted a con
temntuous:
"Why burden the mails and some
overworked manuscript reader with
that o fflc?"
And now that "piffle" had not only
been accepted, but the editor had
written her a nersonal letter saying it
showed marked originality and rcaK
ism.
With on y Pussy rurr-.uew lor
an audience, Helen spent the rest
of the. afternoon rejiearsing trium-

for the caustic comments he would

Acain a dissenting mew irom
Pussy Purr-Mew at the ecstatic hug
that followed. '
Rehearsine still more withering
follow-uo speeches, -in a flutter of
rapturous expectancy, Helen dressed
for dinner.
She was hooking up her new or
chid taffeta, when Anna appeared at
the door with a woc-begone face
and a broken plate.
It s one of the srood ones, ma am,

Trvino- to ouict her oulsmcr ex
citement, Helen lingered for a final
thrilling rehearsal betore she ran
out to meet Warren. .
"Left my umbrella- in the sub
way. Rotten luckl" was his grumpy
greeting.' v
"Did you, dear? Well, it doesn't
matter! . Don't give it a thought.
I'll get you a dozen umbrellas, if
you want them."
Eh? Ihe devil you Willi' look
ing at her sharply. "What's struck
you," her flushed elation plainly evi
dent.
All her rehearsals were forgot
ten. All her determinations to be
restrained and dignified were thrown
to the winds. i
"My -story! Stanford s Magazine
has taken it!"
"That piffle you read mc: '
"The editor of 1 Stanford's Maga

"And it's, all due to that short

snorted Wrarren, still puzzling over
the letter. If there s any origin
ality in that story I'll eat it!"
I don t care what vou say about
it now," jubilantly. You're not a
literary critic and the editor of
Stanford's Magazine IS!"
A pretty punk one, I ihould say.
How in blazes can he print that
maudlin, hackneyed stuff and hold
his job?"
It isn't so maudlin but what it's
worth $150!" flamingly.- "Just think
of the things I Can buy I -tirst Im

Plenty of lime to snout about
that. Come down to earth now. and

gutted grunt he strode in to wvh

"Kh What the Fam 1 1 II struck

"Iteioie I opened that 'envelope, I
said it my ury was accepted I'd
give Amu my brown hat. I thnutd'te
done it riiiht then."
"Well, ot all the batty ideat! Next
thing you'll be" .
But Helen had darted into tier
room beyond the rrach of hit r
cam. Willfully, he smoothed the or

been becoming and it wa as good as

the dished out the rice pudding.
"Oh, Anna, while I think of it 1

stammering gratitude. To be pre

Flushed and disconcerted, Helen
made her escape.
"Now eat your dinner. Don't rus

e'd Warren, as she came back to the
table.
"Oh, I'm too excited to eat. You
know what my next story's going to

Helen had read aloud only the first
sentence the rest she grasped in one
agonized glance.
As her head went down on the ta
ble, the letter fluttered to the floor.
"Eh? What's the trouble?" War
ren snatched it up.
Waves of scorching humiliation en

sobs.
