The Letter: On Dancing in Warm Weather.
· Aa observation made to me last Tandy erraing by a new visitor to Kowloon Theera, so far as dance nights are conerard, bu giver me to think He said, at the end of the avering “I could not bare believed it possible for the Theatre to have been kept so cool, or for dinner to be pleasent in this has w-ther. I have thoroughly enjoyed myself." Now, Sir, I feel that it is cerainly the case with many of the people of this Colony that they are missing, in the summer, a great pleasure and relation because they think they will not be comfortable, whereas, as a fact, they may be perfectly bappy dancing, given the proper ecaditions, I am dancing regularly myself and I know."
Take Tintain: hers they dance right through the summer and th me who have visited the northern port is Jane-July- Augnt know that the temperature of Hongkong particularly after sunet is not a ciredmstone to that in the sins sesson in Tieni It may be retorted that in Tienssin the folk dance in the open air, (I know—I've done it myself in Jairy, bus în the case of our đên Thị đĩa, we claim that the conditions are better than in the open sizi where there is often so been at

of fans, and the large masses of ios provided,
A final word on two: the way to enjoy dancing in the hot weather involves a little forethought. The evening bath should be taken, wan, a nearly before dancing as convenirat, the lightest clothes, of course, should be anen, men wearing a low, soft vol ar or, even, a tancis-ahirs with no collar at all. Finally, don't take too much liquid?
Try this, you win don't yet know, only think you know, and don't deprise yourselves unnecesarily of delight
