WHAT A CLODiIOl IS

Hy GHARLi:S HAY
In this dav when el Hirers sei k In svin
liolii' 111'' wind the tluttellijg of birds,
the wiIckIp of u snake en the connubial
disputes ot Apaches It reiiiilris some an
il teltv to announce that a new convolution
iprcsiiiK the spirit of the hour and the
n itlon has been pnfeeted Still 1 feel the
urgent v of "Art" and so make- the declara
tion that the "e lodhop." which I have de
vised ami which I dimoimtintc In my new
pla, Is the gie-alist movement of the times
It "l the inck-to-the-farm movement In
treating It 1 have not been Influenced In tho
Ic ist bv the modern methods of Terpsichore's
oi dallied agents There- Is no untwisting
of veil, no sactlflce ot clothliik' on the altar
of art n twinkling of bare feet I dance
it to the aecoinpauIm"nt of a Jazz band,
but It could Just as well be e'xeculcd to the
mine musical strains delivered by a fiddler
enthi oned em a wooden box There is no
artificial order of steps, Just a freedom
of movement, spontaneous, et with a caro
fur furnUuto and Minoiindlng feet.
H "'freedom of movement" I do not Im
ply that It is necessaiy to remove garments
I wear a conventional tult, nppioved bj the
l.ugest catalogue houses In America, and
a pair of shoes that permit as fieei move
ment as though the toes vvcip Incased slniplv
In pink rouge The only requisite of clod
hopping Is that tt must be- performed In
tlmo to tho music In this it again differs
from many modern d mces. My eiltlcs
have said that it Is barbaric, because onl
Indians confine theli gestures and steps
to musical beats The true artist. I am
told, leaps and falls and whirls without
any regard for the feelings of those In the
mchestra. Since the Indians are tho only
truo Americans, this carping criticism only
emphasizes my contention that the elod
hop Is an American dance, a back-to-nnturc
movement, cxpressivo of tho new sentiment.
"SliclinR Hilly Watson" at Casino
Tho Casino Theatre next week will offer
as its attraction "Sliding Hilly Watson"
and the Hurlesque Wonder Show This
oiganl7atlon has been peculiarly fortunate
this season In tho big business It has been
doing cverj where and when the show Is
analjzed It Is not ditllcult to understand
why tho public should be so cordial In Its
approval As a matter of fact, tho show
contains so man) different Ingredients and
all of them of such a worthy quality that
thero Is no one who can fall to find somo
thltiB which pleases him Immensely Thero
is the finest sort of music, and the NrlRht
