ANNUAL RECEPTION AT CENTRAL
HIGH SCHOOL MORE BRILLIANT
THAN EVER
BATTERY AS ANNUAL BALL
1t Attracted a Large and FashiOna-
BILE Crowd to the ArmOrY
Floor Last Even
ing.

The junior-senior reception at the Cen
trail high school last night, the most look
ed-forward to function of the school year
was not less notable than previous events
Of its kind. Indeed In brflliancy and de-
tail 1t quite eclipsed its predecessors. The
graduating class promises to be the larg-
est in the history of the school, number
ing very close to 125, and this fact, coupled
with prominence attained by the class in
other respects, made the event a memora-
BILE one. 1t was the juniors who entertain
ed the seniors, and the teachers of the
school had a part, occupying positions Of
Importance at the frappe dispensary. -
when Angry Count a Hundred" was
the title of a brief prologue which was
not more than the title indicated, but
served to promote an element of sociabiI-
lty. President Henry O'Brien, of the
junior class, delivered an address of wei
come, which was responded to by Cor
don Croft, of the senior class Principal
E. Van Dyke Robinson also spoke briefly
in happy vein.
Following the play and speeches the in
cessant chatter Of small talk was heard
on every hand. When the strains of the
orchestra filled the room the assemblage
was soon in motion, and the kaleidoscope
view Of several hundred young women in
summer attire, with as many young gal
lants leading them through the mazes of
the waltz, was of the gaze-compelling
order. The library, where refreshments
were served, was handsomely decorated
and embellished with Turkish rugs and
antique furniture. The color effect was
carried out with excellent effect. The
electric lights were subdued by coIored
tissue paper, large flags hung from the
walls, and class colors were artistically

The annual ball given by Battery A, N
G. S. M, last night at Armory hall was
admittedly one of the most successful
military balls ever held in the city. The
ball was complimentary affair, invita-
tions being extended to the higher mill
tary officers and the four companies, while
each member of Battery A was granted
the privilege of inviting six of his
friends. Between 700 and 800 guests were
in attendance and a more splendid as
sembiage of manhood, youth and beauty
never graced armory hall Among the
higher military officers present were:
Maj. Lihbey and staff, Adjt Gen. Lam
bert and Gen. Bend and staff. The men,
bers of the battery, companies and high.
er officers all wore their uniform.
The large hall was becomingly deco,
rated for the occasion. The walls were
hung with red, white and blue bunting,
while the national flag was sufficiently
in evidence. In different parts of the hall
appeared symbolic shields, on which was
inscribed the word welcome"
