Simple Simon's Grizzly Hug_

The fact that the Four Arts Club were organizing an international competition of modern dances was welcome news to Simple Simon. When he ascertained that the dances would include the Cake Walk, Serpentine Crawl. Piccadilly Flop, Tango, the Wriggly Wriggle, and the Bear Dance, he selected the latter. Simon resolved to seek a teacher in its native haunts. He wandered up the mountainside and chanced upon a strolling Bruin, which he decided to capture. Learning to dance in the ordinary way holds sufficient excitement for most people. Simon, however, found that the bear dance provided unsuspected thrills. He made rapid progress, so much so in fact he won the prize.
