Of The Jazzy Charleston Bone Twisting Dance Seems To Be Losing Favor Here and Fall Class Announcements Bear No Mention ‘ Of Charleston. The the once very popular Charleston dance will have faded in. to oblivion by the time the fall classes open. is the opinion or Mrs. Louise Canfleld. Norwalk dancing teacher. who had quite a large class of Charlestoaers last winter. “Smooth dancing will take the place of the staccato type." she said. in comment. "I tbtk that the ryth. metic type will shortly be the rage. It is more artistic. Rumors to the of t that old fashioned dancing wi be paramount this season, are more or less without foundation. "True. old fashioned dancing may serve as a specialty number on a dance program. but it will never be- come popular. except in the very small village. It is not fast enough for this modern age." Mrs. Cantield's fall classes open September is at her home 00 West avenue. If pupils request. the modi- fied Charleston will be taught. even as it was last winter. but Mrs. Can. field is not anticipating any very great demand. “The Valencia described as a "Spanish for trot.” was demonstrat- ed before dancing msstere yesterday in New York city. at the Waldorf Astoria, and hailed as the successor of the Charleston. The occasion was the first Joint convention of the International lllid Amei'titn National Associations of Masters of Dancing. who henceforth. are to bi known as the United Dunc. ing Masters of America. Mrs. Edna I'iissupse of Newark. glided over the ballroom of the Wui. dorf Astoria in n demonstration of the new dancu which she said was "without the vulgarity of the Charleston and will appease the modems desire for new steps. Leaders at the convention ex- prteeed the opinion that the Charles- ton is dying and that it was never a real monarch and that Ann Pen- nington's new dance “Black Bottom" can never be king. Following a decline in social danc- ing in recent years. representatives of the dancing masters say the past year has marked a great revival in old-time dancing. They point out the schools throughout the country which are devoting from one to two nights a week to coaching the old- fashioned steps. which. it is claimed. augmented social atmosphere and interest to a larger number and wider age limit of dancers. "The Charleston never was as pop- ular as most people thought." Thom- as Bircher of Chicago. editor of the Terpsichorean. declared yesterday. "It is too dangerous a dance. re- quires too much skill. time and study to be popular and it takes up too much space in the ballroom. consequently it runs regular dancers away." Mr. Birchlcr said. Asked regarding his view of the "Black Bottom" dance. Mr. Birchler replied: "It is allright for the stage but it ever would be popular for it is ex- hausting on the muscles. requires too much turning and twisting for the lay dancer." It was admitted that most of the dancing teachers taught the Charles- ton as a matter of business. yet some refuse to. Edward S. Hurst of the Hurst Dancing School. of Allan- ta. 0a.. is one of this minority. stat- ing the Charleston is dying as far as the public in ,concerned with dancing it. It is not the sort of dance for the ballroom. “Up to} Women to Make Peace" - Mrs. Schoonmaker crinauous, N. 7.. Aug. 25.— “Upon American women of all the women of the, world lies most heav- ily the obligation to make peace." declared Mrs. Nancy M. chonma- ker. of Woodstock. New York, an author. at this morning‘s session of the Conference on International Re- lations from the Christian View- point being held under the direction of the commission on international justice and goodwill of the federal council of churches. “This is the greatest task they have ever undertaken." she contin- ued. "The greatest need of the world today is for real peace." Mrs. Schoonmaker was sent to Europe by the Magic of'Wo'inen Voters and the general federation of women's clubs. which have a combined membership of 4.600.000 women. to make a survey of the political activities of women. "The League of Nations. the World Court and the Locarno pacts are the great makers set up for future genera- tions." she declared teddy. "They point the way to a remade. better world where love and mercy and most of all—peace—s vii prevail. “Because we are we 'eu and be- cause our concern has always been with the conservation and not the destruction of ,life. the obligation to work for world peace rests espe- cially heavily upon us. There can be no doubt that the great inter- national need of the world today is for real peace. the sort of peace that reaches down even into the heart of man and plants love where hate has been. "But before we can set ourselves to this task. it is necessary to keep clearly in mind just what war has come to mean. No one who has been in Europe since the close of the great war can return with any il- lusion that the victors came out. of that war really victorious. That. it seems to me. is a point we have failed to see. The fact is that. in all material ways. the allies lost Just as much—perhaps more. suffered just as much—perhaps more. came out of the war Just as much beaten and undone as did the Central Pow- ers. We must search long and hard before we can lay our finger upon the actual gains of the war. The gains were, perhaps. no more than a certain few fundamental truths which we had laid out before us. as saving energy. "We learned. first. that we. the all it» «tile: 4%? Thursday, 22 WALL ST.

We thought we were. We were mis- taken. "Second. we learned that to be prepared does not prevent war. The nation that was best prepared brought on the war. "Third. we learned that war ect- tles nothing. "Fourth. we learned that Amer- lcg. cannot stay». out. So closely is the world bound together today that no great nation can remain apart while the other great nations suf- fer and die. “It is not enough. however. for us merely to want peace. The busi- ness of the hour is for us to make peace, to make it secure and strong to hold us against our passions and our evil impulses. Perhaps we do not get very far without faith and prayer. but works also are an essen- tial part. "Our obligation is to work for peace. That work. can he intol- iigently undertaken only when we recognise that our world today is first of all a political organism. Ponce. therefore. must be secured through political action. not just voting or putting into office this man or that. one party or the other. but through a well defined. internation~ al political organisation willingly set up by the peoples of the earth." Luncheon A good crowd attended the week- iy luncheon and bridge at the West- port Country club today.
