Squire of Dames| - “One, two, three! One, two, three!” counted the dancing teacher, while a straggling, many footed, line of pupils squirmed in more or less successful imitation behind her. “Aw, gee!” said Kendall to the boy in front of him. “Don’t you hate it?” “Sure,” responded the boy in front, kicking the heels of the boy in front of him, who shrilled “Ouch!” “Boys,” chanted the teacher, “at. tention, please. Now, all together! One, two, three! One, two, three!” “Say, Bill,” sald Kendall to the boy in front, “does your mother make you come?” “You know vours?” “Retcherlife,” returned Kendall. “Do you think I'd come if she didn't?” “Take partners and waltz,” cried the teacher, rhythmically, laying tirm hands upon the boy behind her and bearing him off, his large, unwilling feet dragging behind him, Kendall seized Billy by the sleeve, “let's duck,” he whispered. *Here comes that pesky Dorothy. [ bet she's going to ask me to dance with her.” Into their retreat, the dressing room, presently entered Miss T'urner, Terpsichore’'s interpreter. “Come hoys,” she said, ingratiating- ly. “Get your partners for the cotil lon.” “I don’t want to dance any more, sald Kendall bluntly. “My foot's sore.” “Well, come and select your part ner,” said Miss Turner. “And then i your foot really hurts you needn't dance but a tew times."” The two victims followed her back into the hall. Presently Miss Turner, making her dutiful round of the hall incidentally looking for partners for the group of tiuttering wall flowers at the end of the hall, pounced genteelly upon Kendall and Billy. “Weil, boys,” she wsaid, “have . you selected your yet?” “Yep,” said Billy. “Where are they?” inquired Miss Turner, looking about in some per- plexity. “Here,” said Billy, thumb toward Kendall. “Oh, boys,” sighed Miss Turner, "why are you so proviking” You know you have to dance with the girls. Now, come with me and I'll find partners for you.” With a polite but unyielding hand upon the shoulder of each, she moved toward the neglected blossoms seated together at the end of the hall. “l don't want to dance with Dor- othy,” he sald. “Can I dance with El- sie?” “Elsie has a partner,” said Miss Turner. “Next time if you want some special girl you'd better be quicker.” “Then can I dance with Marion?” pursued Kendall, despairingly. “Billy’s asking her now,” said Miss Turner. “You see what comes of be- ing 80 slow. llere's Dorothy, though. I think she’ll dance with you if you ask her nicely.” Miss Turner brought Kendall to a halt in front of Dorothy, who bounded to her feet, her eyes shining with joy. “Oh, goody, goody!” she cried, cast- ing herself violently upon Kendall. “You must sit down, Dorothy,” said Miss Turner, “until Kendall asks you. Now, ask her nicely, Kendall. Bow to her as I have taught you to do and say, ‘May I have the pleasure of this dance?” With an angry shake of his shoul- ders Kendall growled through the formula. “Come on, then!™ he jerked out, turning his back upon his eager partner and scudding for the nearest seat. Dorothy trotted after him and pulled herself up into the chair next to his. She patted down her short skirt, fluffed up her huge hair ribbon and dangled her fat legs, looking the pic- ture of content. “Oh, I just love dancing school, don’t you, Kendall?” she queried. Kendall snarled. “I think you dance just lovely, Ken- dall,” cooed Dorothy, beguilingly. Kendall growled. “I like to dance with you, Kendall. Don't you like to dance with me?” pursued Dorothy, peering up and around into Kendail's gloomy counte- nance. There was no answer, it,” said Bill. *Does sweetly, vartners jerking his Dorothy pouted. “If you to me I won't ever dance again,” she said with just the suspi-' ' cion of a teartul sniff. | Kendall withdrew his gaze {rom the ; {cpi!lng with a little start. He luoked: yamund at Dorothy Kkeenly, his face| | taking on a look that was almost' cheerful. ! “Honest, Dorothy?” he asked, eag-. “Honest and truly. black and: hluely, lay you down and cut you in' twoly?” | “Why—why—yes,” said Dorothy,un.' certainly. *“I guess so.” | Kendall gave a subdued yelp of de- light. “Say, Dorothy,” he whispered ' eagerly. “If you'll promise that you won't ever dance with me again, hope to die if yon do, I'll give you half of my apple that I got out in the dress- ing room. Will you promise?” | Dorothy, indignant, not to say scan- dalized, nodded her head so that her ribbon danced wildly. “I'll promise,” | she said, “if you'll give me the whole apple.” ] !
