"ARE ALL DANCES BAD ?",
It lately appeared in one of the
greatest scattier newspapers of the
present day. This ediLorial was not
written by' a minister, bet by a ley -
man who perhaps never enters a
church. It snide. "It does not seem
possible that the public will retch

that are constantly being inflicted
upon it from behind the footlights
of the theatres oi the „Present day.

'es of actors and attresees of UM

all too froqueutly foreexl upon the

friend, you have asked nit a blunt
question, and 1 1011 answer you in
Just the same way. First, I will say
and entphatically say, that I do not
believe all young people who go to
dance halls are intentionally bad. I
believe, yes, I know, some of them
go there without one impure thought.
They go for the pleasure of meeting
other young people and of passing
an evening in each other's company.
In the next place 1. will emphatically
state that I believe one ot the most
pevniciotre, one of tho most awful
causes of spiritenil death in our cit-
ies to -day is the dance hall. And in
support of no, eecond statement
wilt say that in all the United
States you cannot find one minister
or Myman noted for spiritual or'
evangelistic power, 'veto is not an
enemy of the dance hall, through
ancl through, out and met. They all,
10 11(1001 an excepbton, believe that
the dance hall is the clopleter of spir-
itual life, consequently they are, and
always will be, out and out, through
and through, enemies ot this destroy-
er, this insidious foe of spiritual life.
As 1 spoke.la reference to regular
theatre goers, I now in reference to
the regular dance hall devotee. You

opment 'and a barrier to progress in

Sir Donald Currie Was the victim
of a sornewhat similar mieadeenture.
A chair bearing the name Dunnottar
Castle was to be offered for sale by)
auction, arid Sir Donald, anetioui to
possess the souvenir, insd a
taructen
agent to buy it for him.. The bid-
ding started at a modest 1)11; but the
competition was so keen, even Aerce,.
that the price soared rapidly until,
a scone of groat excitement, the chair
was knocked dawn for e:670. Theo
the secret of it tell came out. Sir
Donal(1, forgetting that be had in-
structed agent No. I, gave the 110111-
1010010)1to a second agent; and .tho
two, equally
RESOLUTE AND INNOCENT,
had bidden against each •other, with
the results that Sir Donald had to
pay 2670 for a chair which he had
hoped to puechasre for a 010 nolo.

son, not kiaowing of his mother's in-

the 501110 object, and as the pair
chanced to sit at opposite (gees of
the auctioneer and hidden from each
other's "100', their rival bids sent tho
price beyond the poor old lady's

shall lose my home," she. cried. aR
she burst into tears, "Why, is that
