"Do you advocate its use under the same circumstances in which it was used in those times?"
"I'm sure I don't know. Was there anything peculiar in its use?"
"Didn't you follow out the references as to dancing?"
"No, indeed, I didn't. I wish I had. Does it give an account of it? That would have been better yet."
"It would have enlightened you somewhat," Marion said, laughing. "If you had been on the other side now, you would have been sure to have followed out the connection as I did; then you would have found that to be true to your Bible you must dance in prayer-meeting, or in church on the Sabbath, or at some time when you desired to express religious joy."
"Pooh!" said Eurie, "Now is that so?"
"Of course it's so. Just amuse yourself by looking up the references to the word in the concordance, and I will read them for our enlightenment."
"Well," said Eurie, after several readings, "I admit that I am rather glad that form of worship is done away with. I am fond of dancing, but I don't care to indulge when I go to prayer-meeting. But, after all, that doesn't prove that dancing is wrong."
"Nor right?" Ruth said, questioningly. "Doesn't it simply prove nothing at all? That is just as I said; we have to decide these questions for ourselves."
"But, Eurie, did you content yourself with just one text? I thought you were to have an army of them."
