Mme. de Kurylo, the famous American danseuse' who recently arrived in England to introduce Polish dances to the public there, said to the London "Globe" on her arrival that among other dances she would give one never before seen outside of Poland. She explained that the new dance is neither a one-step nor a two-step, but something entirely different frou anything now seen. "Like the tango," she said, "it will introduce an entirely new rhythm into the ballroom, while the steps themselves will be quite simple, and easily learnt. But the important thing in any new dance is the rhythm accompanying it. As! every good dancer knows the steps are purely incidental, and are in no hie f as important as poise and style."
"Since I arrived in London I have visited a number of exhibition dances, and more than once it has seemed to me that the style of dancing in vogue is too vigorous to be graceful.
"Ballroom dancing should set the standard of grace and deportment, and avoid anything in the nature of stage effects,' yet sonic of the ballroom dancing I have seen is sufficiently near to what in America, we call ballroom boxing,' to spell disaster for any girl who wore a really dainty dance frock.
