THE INAUGURAL BALL
 AN EVENT IN SOCIETY.


 There is no doubt that the Inaugural Ball. preparations for which are now expressing the attention of the business and society folk of Montgomery, will be as delightful as it will be brilliant. The men of the State are interested in the inaugural ceremonies which will mark the taking of the oath of office by Gov ernor Jelks, and the women are especially interested in the society side of that eventful day.
 The people of the State as whole are desirous of commemorating the inaugura- ton of the first Governor to be inducted Into office under the new Constitution; but they are particularly inter ested be- cause of the personal popularity of Gov- ernor Jelks and his charming wife Gov ernor and Mrs. Jelks and their daughter. Miss Jelks. will receive on that evening. together with the patronesses of the ball.
 The picture of the floor that will be presented at the ball will be brilliant in the extreme More elegant and beaut- fuI toilettes are being especially prepared for this occasion than there have been. possibly, for any one function that has ever taken place in Alabama The beau- ty of the State win be well represented. From every town in Alabama distin- guished men and beautiful women have announced their Intention of coming to Montgomery for the inaugural ball." In Montgomery the ball has aroused more enthusiasm than any society event that has taken place in many years. Mrs. Robert F. Ligon Is chairman of the com mittee of patronesSes. Mrs. Lgon IS g. notably beautiful woman. She mas been a queen in society since her girlhood, and her name alcne would stand for the suc- cess and blilliancy Of any social airatr in which she is interested.
