The tango wrinkle is Ye real old-fashioned kin and, like other troubles, it seldom comes singly. Mau- rice Dekobra, a clever young Parisian, has discovered it, and he fe the firet.to wi pessionate tango and turkey trot trippers of their It seems possible that they may heed hig warnings, though they have turned deaf ears to various self-ap- pointed terpsichorean that I specially 6) wonder at the failure of the latter, Many ‘persons with fundamentally decent instincts, including the instinct to mind their own business, are led astray through sheer irritation against the Puritan bawierout. Which brings up the question of whether reformers reform, but that is another story. This one is about tango wrinkles, Here {s a summary of the physical effects of the morning-evening- noon-and-night tango, according to M. Dekobra, Two complete sets of deep wrinkles between the ques.

And when I took this history of a case of tangomania to Dr. Cecile L. Grell. the physician attached to the Manhat- tan Trade School for Girls, she con- firmed every detail. Dr. Greil is of course much too busy & person to haunt tea trotteries. But recentl: turned from a year and she has many young friends in this city, She has seen many versions of the new dances, end she confessed to some surprise that M.

But, unfortunately, it is \gancea in the wrong manner by most of its American devotees.” Dr. Greil paused reflectively before ‘ner next remarks, A smile crept into ner dark eyes.

Dekobra mentions?’ I asked. ‘What is there about the dance, as Americans do it, waich creates so much damage?” TOO MUCH EFFORT AND PROPER DRESS. “There are two main factors in the case against American tango dancers," explained Dr. Greil. “One is that they put too much effort and rtion into their dancing. The other is that the women, at least, are not properly dressed for the tango. “Americans do not know how to play. They work as hard in the ballroom as in the kigchen or the business office. They semingly cannot relax, Their expenditure of physical and nervo! energy is something terrific. Hoi I never realised the waste of these two forces in this country until I went abroad and saw how much more easily everybody takes everything, “Tango dancers get wrinkles between res because they dance with such @ otrained intentness.
