At public dances some young couples
are engaging in so-called novelties that
are so utterly immodest and so dis
tantly separated from good form that
the result is certain to be a general
condemnation of all that is pleasing
and entertaining about social events
that bring such a degree of pleasure
to the host of good people who enjoy
themselves in a reasonable manner. If
the clergy and others interested in the
moral welfare of the community start
crusade against such suggestive
ancitig as is here referred to, there
will be little reason , to complain. The
orusade will be justified. There is one
remedy that should be effective the
banishing from dance hall floors of
those who attempt m Killingly to m
Sulge in acrobatics that would get
them the gate in supposedly wipiTi
New York. Lss than 5 per cent, of
the dancers who go to places where
hundreds enjoy spending an evening
should not be permitted to offend the
good taste of respectable people who
represent the other 95 per cent. Kil
lingly is a good town of good people
and all of these do not want to see
their pleasure spoiled because a wild
toinority doesn't know how to regulate
itself in a public place.
