It is never too soon to become an enthusiast of old-tyme dancing, as these young students of that dance style know.

They were photographed at the juvenile annual party at the Mosaic Hall, Westward Ho! where they have been instructed by Mr Leslie Wheatley, of Barnstaple, with the helpful cooperation of Mr and Mrs R W Knowles, whose hobby the hall is. Mr and Mrs Knowles, former pupils, are now professional demonstrators. The trophies on display have been won by them at various times.

Seen in the photograph are: Margaret Friendship, Christine Glover, Margaret Ross, Lynda Hodgkins, Janet Pierce, Ian Sawle, Heather Eastman, Yvonne Ashby-Crane, and Irene Chapman. Mr Wheatley, Mrs Knowles, Mr Knowles.
