ur absorbed at home in whirling; a chair
around the room to learn the step and

' it down ; mothers forbade It, and every

Such was the attitude toward the

f hundred and twenty-Are years ago.
True the waltz not so much of a

that those who are able to dance it

Of course we do regard It as a

say that If ho were married his wife

folk a generation ago who,
