It seemed positively ridiculous’to think that Anyone could become popular by learn- ing to dance. And what’s more, I couldn’t believe that learning to dance by mail was possible—especially in a case like mine where I didn’t-know one step from another! So every time I saw. an advertisement .-like this, I just laughed? And I took great delight. in poking fun at some of my friends who were -taking this new course. But it wasnft long before I saw that the joke was on me. Slowly my friends seemed to~ be drifting away from me. They were always ‘going to & party’ — always . havi ‘barrels of fun.’ I was left out of the fun. Event the irls with whom I tsed to so chummy, began to pass me by. Well, I'm only human after all. So, the next time I sawan ad of Mr. Murray's, the famous dancing authority, in a maga- zine I gave it a chance.

In a few min- utes'I had mastered that step. It was so easy —sg fascinating that I could hardly” believe it. /It was real fun to follow the simple di grams and instructions. The following few evenings I was mastering the Waltz, the Fox Trot and other delightful new steps. It seemed so easy—so perfectly natural. And the remarkable thing about it is that I n no music or partner. It seemed as if Mr. Murray him- self were standing by my side gently directing. gently point- ing out the right way or the wrong way to dance. And be- fore I realized it, 1 was prac- tically through with the course. I could hardly wait for a chance to dance at a real ‘affair.’ My big chance came the fol- lowing Saturday night. It was the annual class re-union dance. All my former classmates and their ‘best’ girls were present. Jeanne was my partner. {The music started. I rose With a thrill.
