MEN DANCE UNDER
/ SUFFRAGE BANNER
Thousands Present at Annual
Ball of Woman's Political
, Union.


nual ball at the Palace ballroom,
Blocker and Washington streets.
Not only did they dance, but their
fortunes were told by crystal zazerS
and paimists, and they were served
with dainty refreshments by nurses
from Overlook Hospital, in which
uniforms and were further enter
tanned by exhibitions of the fox trot
and other modern and classical
dances.
Then, when their caution had been
dispelled by the Establishments of
their artful hostesses, a little litera-
ture on the suffrage question was
placeN within their reach, together
with few verbal directions as to
how 1t might best be assimilated.
The only men required for the con-
duct of the ball we're the musicians.
They were hidden behind a hedge of
palms. The decorations were the sub
ject of much favorable comment, eS-
peeially from the delegations of suf-
fragists from Elizabeth, Paterson,
Passaic, Plainfield, Jersey City, Rah-
way and other parts of the State.
