Paul J. Weaver makes the f ol ing statement about the demon stration and description of Eu rythmic dancing: "The demonstration will be di vided into two parts : in the first part Miss Reuschel will take Miss Krug through the various phases of the rhythmic exercis es, using the type of bodily re sponse which corresponds to various rhythmic and dynamic effects as they are found in mu sic.' The second part of the dem onstration takes the form of in terpretive dancing. Four mod ern compositions will be played by Miss Reuschel and danced by Miss Krug. "Dalcrose Eurythmics is a bodily interpretation of music. Every type of rhythm is express ed by certain motions of the body there being a definite movement for each phase of the rhythmic , idea.

KRINGSBERG, THE MAGICIAN, HERE 5th of Summer Attractions Se ries, a Magic Show, Given; Pleases Audience REGISTRATION FOR SECOND TERM TO START SATURDAY New Students Will Register Next Thursday; 1684 Atten dance This Term; In structions, Given (By Reviewer) In a program of hand tricks and expositions of seance secrets the Kringsberg Company enter tained the fifth audience of the summer attraction series, Mon day night. Mr. Kringsberg in the first part of his show performed the gay tricks of the comedian-magician, which never grow old to the youngsters. But young and old clapped with glee to see the goose and pigeons fly from the man's hat. It is said by psycho logical observers that people or animals are inclined to be amus ed at their fellow unfortunates. Then taking as evidence the de light manifested by the audience when they saw the misfortune of the poor goose cramped in the man's hat, there must have been many geese and ganders enter tained by the mystery show. In exposing the appearance of mystery in the work of the wooden hand and the seance se crets Mr. Kringsberg was very adept and appreciative of , the popular , beliefs existing : along that line. Miss Esmeralda Mar tin, "The Girl with, the Radio Mind," gave the most interest ing feature of the entertainment with her keen sense of predilec tion and accurate perception.

The idea first became a real ty in 1919 when Dr. Howard W. Odum, head of the Soliool of Public Welfare, Roland F. Beas ley, then Commissioner of Pub lic Welfare and Mrs. Kate Burr Johnson, of his staff, promoted a six-weeks training course for social workers, which was cli maxed by a two-weeks intensifi ed course. The idea merged into a two weeks Institute of class-room work. Last summer, since the group had gone beyond the reg ular class-room scheme, the In stitute became a one-week af fair with lectures as the basis of training; The Institute was followed by a reading course which lasted throughout the year, based upon an outline am plifying the subjects discussed during the Institute. In 1924 the registration to talled 54, in 1925 the total was 80, and in 1926 the number was 116.
