EVEN OLD ELECTRICITY
' CAN NOT DAMPEN ARDOR
OF TERPSICHOREAN FANS

night, to be sure, but the lamps did
not shine on fair women and brave
men att the dance last Saturday even

fairness on the one part or of bravery

flash on, only to replunge the hall a
few seconds later into that variety of
darkness known as “utter” or “Sty

respective bottles one might discern
on several shaven faces smudges of
such absolutely foreign substances as
“Mavis talcum” and “Pompeian
bloom.”

dance was a Canadian-Australian piano
duet by Messrs. Fairman and Pinkus.

resentatives of our army and navy in
the persons of the visitors who were
