teachers of dancing throughout this glorious land of 0 ours who are guardians of tile young in this branch of education they should insist when a dance becomes so pop popular u lar as the two step upon its being dan danced eod correctly ln in a graceful and dig adli manner and not its 3 a romp they hougil i alao see that it 11 Is not allowed to interfere with another dance let it le be kept by
