BY VISCOUNTESS HELMSLEY.
The real menace of social life at the moment is the middle-aged" woman who has discovered that the pow dances suit her to perfection."
It is entirely her fault that the chaperon is almost extinct She should be reating her head, grey by nature and bronze by art, against the back of a comfortable chair, watching her daughters and nieces, possibly her grand-daughters, glide past with their partners, but very often she does the gliding while they - watch her enviously.
"Such a nuisance having two grown daughters; I have to take: them to all the dances," said a woman to me the other day.
It was more than I could stand, I pointed out to her, calmly I hope, but firmly and explicitly, that it was time she melted gracefully into the background, and that her age 20 secret to me, as we were contempora- ries--certainly did not justify her taking up jazzing as a pastime, especially with boys young enough to be her sons. She only bows to me now and jazzes away if she thinks I am going to speak to her.
She is only one of thousands of women who, if this new kind of dancing had not become the vogue, would have been dignified chaperong to the end of their days.
No one could possibly wish to curtail the enjoyment of our splendid younger generation, those boys, and girls who have worked and endured

them dance to their hearts' content
responsible. But let middle-age take by all means; let them get back their joie de vivre; youth should be gay and itself more seriously for its own good, as well as the good of the younger generation.
It is owing to the fact that the chaperon has been eliminated, that girls ask all manner of men to dances. If they are good jazzers, who these men are and what they are does not matter."
A friend tells me that her life is a burden now her son is home, for the telephone is never silent. Day and night different girls are ringing up asking if he will come to a dance or take them to a dance. Sometimes he knows the girl quite well, more. often he has just met them, occas ionally he does not know them at all. But they have heard he is a good dancer.
Then, because there is no chaper- onage, a new fashion has come to life. If you find a partner to your fancy you dance with him the whole evening. There are actually dances where partners never change.
If the much-abused but very useful chaperon does not take up her duties soon again we shall have our daugh=" ters choosing husbands according to their eligibility as dancing partners.
They come home from school ñiled with ideas of freedom and democracy these daughters. They laugh at the idea of any chaperon being necessary: But I cannot see that their present behaviour proves the elimina. tion of the chaperon a good thing. On the contrary!
I can see it come again soon, the day of the kindly, watchful chaperon a triumphant return, brought much freedom for the young and about by sheer reaction from too deadly fatigue for the old, which will reinstate her more powerful than
ever.

The worst of it is that several of them who have been be fore me are drawing out-of-work pay and at the same time are accosting. men in the streets." Some of the young women were said to have fol lowed and spoken to Chinamen and others to soldiers.
