Then two smiling blondes danced under a big umbrella. First they danced with the umbrella over their heads, and their short skirts swayed and their white slippers twinkled. then the umbrella was whirled in front of them, and only their white feet were seen underneath. They danced out of its shield and their dresses changed colors-not both the same color, but two different colors.
