PRETTY WOMEN At
THE TRANSPORT BALL

The ball at the Young Hotel last
evening. given in honor of the Second
Cavalry, was marked by the presence
of an unsual number of handsome
women and pretty gowns. The regi-
ment seems blessed with a bevy of at
tractive women and the gowns they
wore were creations of the dressmakers'
art. Not all of the pretty women, how
ever, were from the Second Cavalry,
for there are others travelling on the
transport Logan who are not associated
with the regiment. There were also
several who are guests at the Moana
and Young hotels. 1t was a very pref
ty function.
The cavalry band played on the roof
garden during the evening and its play
ing certainly entities it to place
among the best Of the army bands.
