There are four dances, and each different from the others—a tap dance, a soft shoe dance, an eccentric dance and a waltz. “While the picture was in pro- duction, I kept in practice at my ‘home by installing a tap board and a mirror, in front of which I went through my steps each evening.” Nor are these varied dances her only forte.
