AID furnished delightful music for the
dancers. The ball opened at $50 o'clock
with the grand march, which was led by
Mr.. and Mrs. l. l.. Blout, the former the
president of the Hebrew Charities, and un-
til long after midnight the dance went
merrily on.
At the end of the first half of the pro-
gram there was an intermission for supper.

were score Of small tables spread for

larger parties. The decorations were very
effective. consisting only of potted plants
scattered here and there about the tables.
