Excerpt from The Training School Quarterly, Vol. 3: July, August, September, 1916 Following the opening of the school to boys, a night was designated as girls' night. Once each week and later twice each week the girls and ladies met for gymnastic instruction, basket-ball, volley-ball, etc. Later a number of young men and women begged that they be allowed to dance, giving the plea that they wanted to dance but objected to going to the public dance halls. This request was granted, and now one night each week is set aside for social danc ing, always under supervision. Those attending taxed themselves 10 cents a night, with which they purchased a Victrola, which furnished them with dance music. The floor is in wretched condition, the space is limited, the lighting facilities are poor, and yet the attendance oftentimes totals 50. Certainly this phase of recreation is well worth the study of the commission. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
