Dorothy Byton and Steppers Do Charleston Dance on Their Toes

By Walter IX Hickman E 1"”””! VfiN the Charleston yields to the touch of the classically v. trained dancer. That is proven because Dorothy Byton and her six dancers dance this new dance on their toes. The toe arrangement rather elevates this dance, but it is the Charleston just the same. Want to linger a few minutes with Miss Byton and her dancers? Here Is a dancing act composed of six dancers and a principal dancer. The act has been so cleverly arranged that this small group of dancers Is able to present a sort of an Oriental ballet, beautifully gowned, without any stage waits. To the strains of Oriental music these dancers, execute the slow movements of the ballet as gracefully anct with as much charm as one demands with a grand opera ballet. The person who planned this dancing act has turned out the real limited thing known as fine dancing acts. Miss Byton and her assisting artists do not sacrifice their classical training for cheapness. They bring grace and beauty to every mood of the dance. Here is a dancing act that lends charm and class to any variety bill. A1 White is present with a voice not so great, but he has that way of dressing up his numbers so they get across. He has the aid of another singer. White runs mostly to comedy instead of genuine melody. A troupe of trained monkeys appear under the headline of Rneresto’s Cirhus, but the human trainer never appears. The monkeys go through their routine, doing an entire vaudeville show. The monkeys even go in for music as they have their own monkey orchestra. Act is. interesting as a novelty. Louise and Mitchell are all right as long as they stick to their acrobatic work. Very few pcof .e can successfully mix acrnbotjev iirfi

INDIANA PLAN OF PUBLICITY IS United States C. of C. Worker Says Idea Is Appealing. “Indiana's plan of developing a 'program of publicity and advertising on i-ifi basis of facts obtained by authoritative agencies is very appealing," declared F. Stuart Fiifcpatrick of the United States Chamber of Commerce organization service, in a communication to George H. Mosser, State chamber director. “We are much interested in the Indiana plan for developing and

stimulating industry, sponsored by the Indiana Development Council, and backed by the * State Chamber of Commerce,” he said. Handsomely illustrated lithographs will oe placed on poster boards in 587 cities Jan. 1, through courtesy of the Indiana Poster Advertising Association. Value of the space contributed for January and February is estimated at $15,000. Copy on the poster will be “Indiana, Good Fuel and Power, Farmland, Roads, Labor Supply, Transportation, Schools, Believe, Ad vertise, and Invest.” Mosser said the campaign to raise the $50,000 budget will be started soon.

Instead of some trivial article that is easily 4§st or worn out let your Christmas present to every member of your family be a bankbook with an initial deposit. It is a gift that will be appreciated, for it is not only lasting, but leads to an accumulation of money that will stand in good stead in future years.
