Then come four waltzing steps and two waltz turns, two steps forward, one waltz step and a change of weight. Next are four walking steps, balance forward and balance backward. Then come the twinkle, a sort of hitchee- kiok, two canters forward and repeat. “The pericon is really an exhibition dance,” continued Mrs. Passapae, But when she prooeeded to demonstrate it I thought it seemed simple enough for any ordinarily adept social dancer, It begins with four steps forward and a double stamp.

Great popularity is promised for the one-step which, according to Miss Maud Allan, has already filled the ballrooms with old men, because it is so simple and easy to perform. “It will be simpler than ever,” prom- feed Mrs, Passapae, “and both waits and progressive turns will be used in the standardized Congress one-step.
