The cotton ball has created interest IN
every social set. The big lounge and din
ing room thrown open for the use OF tne
women of Neighborhood house to PROVIDE
dancing space for the assembled throng
will unquestionably be filled, even though
1t make space capable of accommodate
ing many.
The young women who are to attend the
mysterious royal pair as maids of honor
will be first to enter, in the spectacular
feature arranged to do homage to King
Cotton, and as they come the large aug
mented orchestra that is to furnish the
dance music will play king Cotton"
springhtly composition of John Philip
Sousa, compiled several years ago.
Mr.. Hubert Kinney, with Miss Florine
Hodges, will present beautiful dance
number, a feature which will be especially
appreciated by those who do not dance
but who expect to enjoy the reception
feature OF the entertainment, though those
who dance will be charmed with the ex-
quiste art of these two young people.
Guests at the ball are not required to
appear in cotton gowns, though many Of
the women will do SO. The men will he
presented with cotton boil boutonnieres.
Every feature has been carefully ar
ranged for the pleasure of the guests.
and the spectacular part of the reception
has been carefully and artistically looked
after. Mrs. Owen Gilespy, Mrs. Camp
bell Maben, Mrs. Cupepper Exum and
Mrs. Ross c. Smith, four of the prettiest
young matrons in society, will be in
charge of the cotton bolls which the men
are to have as boutonnieres. In their
Bingham frocks made in the fashion of a
century or more ago, and their quaint
hats, fashioned of 'cornshucks, they will
be winsome quartet; and so will these
and other details of the big forthcom-
ing party increase the general enjoyment
of the aesthetic side of one of the most
important social functions of the winter.
Isn't 1t a beautiful thing that, In these
dread days Of war and privation, society
Is interesting itself In the serious things
rather than the frivolous affairs of life ?
Have you considered the fact that there
has not been q big debut reception, and
that the few teas. SO few that one might
almost count them upon the fingers of
one hand, and but the rarest number of
luncheons and dinner parties. even though
November is half gone? But a multitude
of charity parties have kept things gay;
and will keep them so until the holiday
time. The public, entering into the spirit
of the thing. is enjoying itself as much
at such affairs as the Neighborhood house
ball, where the cost of admission Is s.. 80,
and someone Is made more comfortable,
warmer, better fed and happier, Just as
much as it enjoys big sumptuous party
