V4 a % CALLS SEATTLE 0 Join in the Movement for Better Dancing The question has often arisen as to whether the people of the East are better dancers than we in the West, and we often hear the opinion expressed that dancing conditions generally in the East are much better than in the West. In any case, most peo- ple are agreed that much can be done to revive that old - time decorum and grace that characterized the dancing of other days. It was with the idea of fostering such a movement that Mr. Charles J. E. Blane instituted the Contest he is now conducting at Chantecler. The Contest is now in its fourth week, and all amateur dancers are cordially invited to take part. Rules of the Contest Only Amateur Dancers may enter, and there is no fée beyond the regular evening Cover Charge. Couples will be selected each evening by Mr. Hamilton Douglas to appear the following Wednesday in the weekly contest. Winners of each of the six weekly contests will be guests of Chantecler throughout the following week, and winners of the final contest will be entered for the Northwest International Contest to be held at Chantecler later in the season. $200 IN CASH PRIZES A cash prize of $25 will be given to the Winners of ‘each of the six weekly contests, and a Cash Prize of $50 to the Winners of the Final. The weekly contests will be judged on the Dancing of the Fox Trot, Waltz and One-Step, and in the final contest the Tango will be added. Dancing starts each night at 9 o’clock, and the selec- tions are made after 11 o’clock. Any further informa- tion may be had from Mr. Hamilton Douglas, who is in charge of the. contest. Whether or Not You Dance you'll certainly be interested in witnessing the nightly selection of couples in this popular Contest. The character of dancing is steadily improving and this is a wonderful opportunity to see the modern steps interpreted in the best Come up tonight, or any time, and enjoy the many attractions of this unique establishment.
