REGULATION FIGURE ENDS '
PAVLOWA'S CZARINA WALTZ
Thh article Is the eighteenth nnd last of a scries on Anna Favloicn'i "AVin
Social Dances and How to Perforin Them," which appeared on Tuesdays and
Thursdays exclusively in this newipapci. These articles were written "by
Mile. Pavloica, who as premiere ballerina assoluta of the St. Petersbura
Imperial Opera, is evetywhere recognised as not only tho greatest living
dancer, but the greatest Jlflno' authority on the art of the dance.
By ANNA PAVLOWA
ARTICLE XVIII
Wo corns now to tho closing portion of
tho Czarina Waltz, and for the first tlmb
the partners are required to assume the
"closed" position From the attitudes as
sumed in tho closing part ot the preceding
flguro, whoro tho dancers In a forward
and back movement finish face to faco
and standing closo together with arms
upraised, it Is now necessary to come
into a regulation position for tho execu
tion of tho formal waltz.
Tho lady lias been momentarily poised,
with her left foot soma nine Inches in
advance of her right, both upheld hands
being held by her cavalier. On tho count
of "one" In tho measure of muslo that
Introduces tho final figure now under con
sideration tho lady stops baok about two
or tnreo inches -with the right foot and
drops her arms. On counts "two" and
"three" sho permits her cavalier to ex
tend her left arm with his right In the
regulation manner, and then she curls her
right forearm over tha loft arm of her
escort.
The next threo counts (those of "four,"
"five," "aix") are utilized by a slight
swaying- In tlmo to tho music, and -when
the succeeding measure comes the danc
ers movo ln a regulation waltz step. The
cavallerv starts backward on his left foot
and tho lady moves forward on her right,
Tho dancers should now proceed for four
full measures (twelve counts), and at the
completion of the last I one preparation
is made to Introduce a "hesitation
pause." I believe tho "hesitation" In which tho
dancers are. in "half-open" position Is one

which lends artlstla variety to this danoe
I have originated. For that reason I
adocate the execution of the pause ln
this matter: Beginning on the first mens,
ure following the four Just mentioned tin
which the dancers have been proceeding
with the regulation waltz) the lady turns
to her right, and as she advances her
right foot a few inches she bends for
ward. Her cavalier turns to I1I4, left, advances
his left foot with a dip of tho body at
the waistline and extends his own left
arm and the right of his lady
The next measure of muslo after tha
pause (three counts) are used by each
dancer to take a step in tho direction
they are temporarily facing, the lady with
her left foot, tho cavalier -with his Tight.
From then on the Czarina Waltz Is com
pleted by resuming the regulation
"closed" position and dancing for eight
measures of the music, four to the left
and four reversed.

Photoplay Editor, Evbnino LBDaan.
Mary Ityan, who plays tho lead of tho
light-fingered maid In "Stop Thief," Is
never tired of advising young girls who
are stage struck to consider the matter
long and carefully before seeking a thea
trical engagement Regarding tho moral
influence of tho stngo upon those who
depend upon it for a living, Miss Ryan
says:
"It In true that temptations and bad
Influences may surround a girl who earns
n living, and In thlB work-a-day world she
Is to be found In every field, but It can
not be denied thnt in tho theatrical pro
fession there is a necessitated Intimacy
and a narrow nnd confined acquaintance
ship thnt nro not only frequently unpleas
ant, but in the caso of the oung and
unsophisticated girl may easily become
dangerous
"In my estimation the moral danger of
tho stage does not arrive so much from
its gayety as from Its loneliness. On the
long Jaunts that have to be taken from
ono city to another, tho r.aturat disposi
tion Is to make friendships, often for tha
consolation nnd advice that can be had
only from those whom we call our
friends Hut It takes a strong mind some
times to know Just where to place; the
bar to see that tho lino of safety is
closely drawn and carefully maintained.
If girls are not led Into mistaken friend
ships and are not Influenced by bad ad
visers their course Is clear. But the situa
tion Is serious and should not be courted
without careful consideration."
A Play Right From Life
Besides being one of these once-ln-a-llfctime
instances whoro a pla, com
plete and dramatic, can bo lifted directly
from real llf for tho drama is produced
without an lota of change the story of
how the forthcoming Edison "Judge Not"
came into being as a play is as Interesting
as the drama Itself. Director Charles
Brabln best tells it in his own words:
"I doubt If I ever saw an actor who had
such control of his emotional powers as
Charles Oglo who could stop in tha very
height of n strong scene and In the most
prosaic way ask whether, perhaps, 'Am I
In tho right place ' Ho didn't Beem to
feel at nil, though he could thrill you I
eald one day, 'Good Lord, Charlie, did
5011 ever cry in jour life?" 'Yes, once,"
wm all ho said, and then ho told me the
story that so affected him It was the
simple, powerful story of a sneet, simple
village girl who was lured avtay Charlie
Ogle's father was tho minister that
brought her back to her mother's homo
and to her tragic death, it developed later
"The story so effected me that I was
ono day telling It at tho Republican Club,
New York, ln company with James Op
penhelm, the writer. When I had finished
Mr. Oppenhelm asked mo whether ho
could write It. The editor of the Metro
politan Magazine bought the story on the
spot. Stranpe to say It so affected both
Charlie and myself that we never thought
of It as a play."
"Judge Not" will be something of a
departure from the usual pteaBant ending
of plays, as Viola Dana, -who will play
tho village girl, is snown arownea ana in

Risked Their Lives
for These Pictures
You can see a photographer with his outfit, in advance
of a charging column, dodging across an open field
raked with shrapnel and bullets. Armed only with
cameras,, these brave photo-soldiers chanced their lives
in a hundred ways to give you real action pictures of
the great war. Taken by permission of commanding
officers of the warring powers, these films are now pre
sented by the Evening Ledger for the first time at the
Forrest Theatre.
7500 feet of the most vivid, startling and accurate war
scenes ever shown
The big 42-Centimeter Guns in Action.
Bombardment of Ghent.
Attacks of British Warships on German Land
Fortifications.
German Army Entering Brussels.
Battle Between Field Guns Outside of Antwerp.
Infantry Shelled Out of Their Positions.
And many other thrilling scenes with the British,
German, French and Belgian armies.
Some Corking Photos of the Kaiser at the Front,
At the Forrest Theatre this week only. Twice daily
afternoons at 2:30 and evenings at 8:30. Admission
