Yesterday was children's afternoon
at the Tybee Hotel and there could
not have been a gayer or prettier
sight than was to be seen on the pa
vilion at the children's ball. The af-
fair had been planned several days
before. with Mrs. Graham's co-opera-
4ion. by Mrs. Jacob Lippman, and it
was through her interest and efforts
Ahat it was made such an unqualified
success
That the message was a welcome
,one to the little city folks was proved
nv the number that went down brim-
,f,1l Of excitement, on the $3.50 train.
iThe children assembled in the big
hallway of the hotel, gathering from
iou parts of the island, and pretty
,rieture they made, the boys very brave
in their white ducks and shining
Eatent-leathers, and the girls in ruff
Ned frocks and bright colored ribbons.
They were formed for the march and
T9ssed out two and two, in the after
noon sunshine towards the pavilion
keeping step to the music. AS they
crossed the floor they were met by Miss
Marguerite Stults,> who very .cleverly
directed them through the intricate fig
1ires of the grand march, after which
came the first waltz, and the ball had
begun.
Between the dances there were some
special numbers that added greatly to
the pleasure of the afternoon, espe-
cially to the older spectators, of whom
there were many. That dear little maid

She is much more in earnest than ever

they know that l only shot the men
to keep them out of my house"
