Show TOO CROWDED FOR COMFORT The dance at tho Ward Hall last evening was almost too crowded for comfort and thorough enjoyment. One4 hundred and sixty-four tickets were sold. How many were dancing without with-out tickets is perhaps unknown. Tho presence of so many children child-ren suggests that perhaps an age limit should be fixed for -the dances, particularly on such occasions oc-casions as Christmas, and more children's parties given to afford an opportunity for the children to learn to dance and enjoy themselves. The Record would suggest as a means of relieving the congestion that an occasional 25-cent dance for children from, say 10 to 16 years of ago be given. This would give the young folks a chance to enjoy themselves without overcowding the adult danroa. AnnthJ lllffnl geotidn is that 'TSir."" ifhorley might be induced to complete the basement of his new theatre building as a sort of overflow dancing floor. Certain it is that norno arrangement ar-rangement of this kind will have to be made, if tho interest in dancing dan-cing is maintained and encouraged encour-aged on tho part of married folks, who havo gotten past the stpge where they enjoy being jostled and shoved about the floor by tho swirling throng. A few married people's parties, such as the one announced for next Tuesday Tues-day night will of course help some, but to our mind thelmixed parties are the best when they are not too badly crowded. |
