The final Patriarch ball has been for
the last three years fancy dress party.
The one given Friday night at Lansing
hall was even more Of success than
previous ones. Due in part to the elab-
orateness of the costumes and the gor-
geousness of the decorations. Entering
the dimly lighted room, passing bur-
ly, dummy policeman, the guest was
confronted by wierdly beautiful
scene
The walls were hung with huge
American flags, while flags of all ma
tons were festooned to the chandeliers.
From the ceiling were suspended enor-
NOUS japanese umbrellas from whose
border hung japanese lanterns. Be
tween these umbrellas were strips Of
bunting festooned. Smaller umbrellas
were artistically arranged about the
rooms. A little tete-tete room was
conjured out of the stair case and land
ing by use of rugs and other household
furnishings. In every nook and corner
Ct the two ball rooms were placed set
tees, divans, rugs, piano lamps. cush-
ions and articles which made the
rccms oczy.
This same soft glow may have been
designed to hide defective make up,
had there been any. There were none.
Lively Topsies were on speaking terms
with ladies gowned in costumes OF the
long-ago, and the saucy yellow kids
were chummy with gentlemen Of the
cid school who were powdered hair and
patches. The costumes were all SO
deserving of praise that there are not
adectives in the Courier vocabulary to
Justly describe them-consequently a
simple statement of the fancy dresses
is the only recourse.
John Farwell wore a red jacket trim
med in gold braid and brass buttons;
duck trousers.
DIR. John White: Blue satin swallow
tail coat, white satin vest. lace frill at
the neck and hands, white satin knick-
erbockers, buckles on his shoes. A gray
wig and a piece Of black court plaster
completed the costume.

the bill will speedily be buried beyond
