“STANDSTILL,”
THE LATEST DANCE.
LONDON, March 8. Despite the agitation against it, the Charleston continues to enjoy a great vogue here. The latest phase of this dance to tickle the public’s fancy—and feet —is “standstill.” This is the ordinary Charleston trimmed down so that it may bo danced within the space of a square foot. It is done with beautiful neatness and finish, without the kick movement, and without movements of the body above the \^aist-line. The new steps are capturing even the most exclusive ballrooms, and private dances are now being enlivened by exhibition solo “standstills,” executed by pretty girls, many of whose names are prominent in.
