After the Hirst World War the new dances from America also found their way into Slovenia and were
enthusiastically received - particularly by the young. In addition to the pre-war tango, a number of lively dances
were introduced - of which the charleston without doubt enjoyed the greatest popularity. This is also the period
when the wait/, achieved its third peak of popularity. These dances, of course, could not go unnoticed by the
sharp eyes of the moralists who always had to find something to criticise. And even if the dances themselves
were beyond reproach, fault was found in what they termed the "vices" accompanying balls, such as the latest
fashions and the alcohol which were an indispensable part of these parties. The spirit of the times, however,
marched on, and the people danced and amused themselves more and more at crazy parties late at night.
