'In the years gone by we have had
sport in this country called danc-
Ing, but now no longer aancing dui
pure and simple old time hugging set
to music The dance of today, the
Turkey trot, the Mobile duck and the
Fox trot are nothing more Or less
than the grandparents of the ) Tango
The Hesitation waltz, the child of the
Tango, is 'the meanest, lowest down
thing that ever crawled out of hell.
Hence the dance of the twentieth cen-
:urv is nothing .more- or less: lhan a
cold-blooded secondary sexual love
feast.
'Eighth, the sin of flirting.
Tf the rirl who flirts - around this
town could se themselves as other
folks see them they would recoil in
horror. When a woman makes eyes
at a man he in turn winks at 'her and
when she has passed he says to the
rest of the. buncn: Boys, she -is oeaa
easv Men estimate women1 by v the
estimate she places upon herself.
"Ninth, the sm or divorce.
"In all this world there Is only one
nation that gets by us when it cornea
to divorce andfhat is Japan. In Ja
nan one out of six has been divorced.
Taking the statistics of 1913 in the
city of San Francisco, there were
five divorce case? in the civil courts
for every six marriage license grant
ed, and it was amid, tms state or af
fairs that one Judge on the bench in
the State of California after handling
ten thousand divorce cases, listening
to the testimony in the same, got sick
of the job and asked to be relieved of
the same.
"Tenth, and last, sin against moth
erhood.
"These are days when it is very
unnooular among some classes of
women for -children to be born to
them. A certain doctor stated in an
interview with him that recently sev
era! women of high social position
visited him with an Inviting check

Raleigh. N. C. April 22. At the
ivMith hour Colonel Bill Dortch has
come into the Congressional race in
the third district and inevitably the
man to be crippled Is his townsman,
Congressman George E. Hood.
The thing has been puzzling here,
It had been accepted as settled tifit
Hood would best Abernetny, out tne
entrance of Colonel Dortch is taken
oa Vio hat evidence that Mr. Aber-
nethy is making an impressive race.
Colonel Dortch holds aown me umuo
nf marshal and running for office was
k ia a thine exnected of him. Aa
a manager of other candidacies it Is
doubtful whether he has any equal
In the Eastern half of the State, but
runner for himself is rather untried.
The third district foes of Mr. Aber
nethy had not taken his candidacy
when they were here at
the convention two weeks ago. They
thought Mr. Abernetnys purcnasmg
a couple hundred acres oi aaveruB
ing space a needless expense, thaf
would merely swamp the solicitor.
v.nmHmiin Thomas of New
. I JOA-VVJ lift
9 A nem was actively supporting Mr. Ab-
-mtriv ht that was expected. The
Dortch move is amazing. If there
is any feeling between the two Golds
v... man nnltt.icians here do not
UUlir Ajussuf sr
r. t ATY. tf VflflW it.
Mr. Hood has served two Congresses
and his term would expire March 4,
1919 without re-election. Nobody in
Rniefsrh had heard the sign of any
rumor that Mr. Hood was to have a
second opponent.
