NEW SEASON'S DANCES. NO RIVAL OF FOX-TROT AND WALTZ
THE NEW TANGO,
A Special Correspondent writing in the London Observer says?—
The possibility of any new dances ap- pearing this season to relieve thesome- what monotoneous character of the latter- day dance programme fox-rot, fox- Trot, fox-trot, waltz, one-step "seems
remote.
Sobre dunces of a mittor character have been invented by members of various professional associations in Freuce, Eng- Jand, and America; but all lack that in- definable quality that makes dance popular. They are quaintly named: Mascotios, Camel Walk,. Habanera/Fivy Step, Chicago Maze, Balaucello, ete. None is likely to bridge the gulf between danes academy and ball-roon,
A Taugo, pruned down to four steps of an excerdingly, siple character, had a restricted Nogi-due mainly, it must be confessed to energetic pushing and booming at the end of last seasou, and itay be seen agath this. But the fact that it will find the entrée to the West- End clubs and restaurants difficult may wither it.

Although its de cidedly not a daner" to introller where there are a large number of propie pre- sent, it may nevertheless be found bandy to put on a tea-dance prograinsie. tea-dance is pleasant, intimate, amusing, informal, and many people will dance, or good-humouredly attempt to

The same general principle of smooth- ness and continuity applies up the fox trot, which is now a high-developed dance, capable of being "executed with subtle and Snished style; capable also of having a certain amonat. of expression imparted to it, There are sundry new steps, the most notable being an Ameri- can importation, the Toddle the Toddle has a score or more of variations of its own-bat atops are now quite subordinate to style and ease of exccution.

RECTIC" MUSIC.
A PASSING PHASE. Remarkable criticism is included in the "report of the adjudicators at the recent Glasgow Musical Festival. D. Walford Daries, eulogising "the wonderful folk. songs and palm-singing," says Music lovers everywhere have been "semi.conscious victims and unmenning encouragers of hectic music for some. years past. It las all to change, and how ludicrous the unhappy professional stream and shout' of the opera house and concert room will. seem, when orce we have, inderstood the saner loveliness of that folk-singing evening, and the subnet jower of the chorus singing, which, by the way, was all too
short.
Mr. Jalins Harrison writes: Sentimen. tality was avoided extraordinarily well. I was glad of this, for sentimentality is the adjudicatora bugbear at many a festivul. Let us have plenty of out-of-doors music; let us have the sinesy stuff, and then par festivals will never deganerate into mere drawing-room functions at which we have to listen to the dreadful, sloppy platitudes of musical speech,
Mr. Drinkwater, discussing the elocu- tionista, saya: The poet has chosen live words, and he has put them into rhythmic order. All we have to do is to say the words as simply and, according to our natural gifta, a beautifully as possible, and to follow the rhythm, when the in tellectual meaning of the words will be- come perfectly clear to ourselves and our hearera, since inverse the whole-question- of emphasis in the poet's rhythm is gover red entirely by the meaning that he wishes the words to carry. It seems to me that this principle about the nature of poetry. in general must be accepted from the be ginning, otherwise there is no bope of the revival of the art of speaking fine.poetry for its own sake, instead of the lamentable practice of resiting trashy verse for the purpose of showing off someone's so called
locutionary gifta,
