CNE OF TIE FEATURES


The auditorium Of the new Odd Eel
lows Temple, Tenth and King street,,
presented a most brilliant appearance
lns' night az the seventh annual ball OF
the congregation Beth Emeth Temple
of Truth. which was the biggest event
of the year in Hebrew social circles.
Guests were present from Baltimore
Washington, philadelphia and other
places. the number being larger than
usual.
Because Of the dinners preceding the
ball. dancing was no. wcll under wuy
until 10 o'clock. From that hour on
10 the wee sma' hours the floor was
crowded with dancers and all the new
est dances were much enjoyed OF the
p numbers on the program given by
Kanofsky's Orchestra. the most popular
were the tango. minuet. and hesitation
waltz.
Members Of the committee on decora-
tions had carried out the thought Of
Washineton's birthday in the decorative
scheme. and the national colors which
were lavishly displayed and artistically
arranged gave the room patriotic APP
pearance. Everywhere. there were fags
and bunting. Even the incandescent
I lights showed red. white and blue. Bunt-
/ ing was draped in long graceful folds
! from the balcony and there was red,
white aud blue canopy ON the stage
which was very effective. and which was
rendered more so by the large screen
Of palms which bordered the stage from
corner TO corner.
Completing the pretty stage picture
was an artistic arrangement OF red
white and blue incandescent lights in
The centre 81 which were the lcttersi
"T. B. F. emblazoned in the same col.
ors. Large American flags displayed
about the room AIDED dto the decorative
scheme
The evening gowns worn by the ma
irons and maidens were unusually beau
ltiful. and while the Temple Beth Emeth
balls are always conspicuous Tor the
beauty OF the costumes which are
worn. other balls were cclipsed by tho
splcndor and brilliancy Of tho gowns
worn last evening.
