The main ballroom, which offers 90 900
square feet of dancing room, Is said to
be the largest in America. In addition
to its magnihcence and Conven!ences
the Ziegfeld Danse de FOllies possesses
such important features as an East In

bars, ladies' bars and smoking rooms.
1t Is the intention of the management
to encourage modern dancing among
persons who would hesitate to make
their debut among professional talent.

pens that there remains but a trace II

comic opera The authors OF the
new books OF Mr.. Dippel's operettas will
not even be restricted by this slight bar
to originality. 1t will be quite pos
sib.e for the American authors to ex-
ert all their talents so long as they
keep within the general limits OF the
pot laid down by the designers OF the
story. The original llbrettists have
merely laid out a general plan OF the
story, Its division into acts and scenes,
and suggested the contents of certain
lyrics to which the mood OF the music
must DO suited.
This IL of course possible only In the
case OF operettas which have not been
sung abroad. As this happens to be
the case with two OF the new works
the American writer's of the text have
been at liberty to- go as far as their
Imagination suggested. The operetta

The Federation of Catholic Socie-

Friday evening. DIR. CAM made a
splendid report of the national con-
vention recently held in Baltimore,
and brought back some of the souve-
mir books. He said that while the
convention was a success 1t did not
compare with the one held In this
city in 1912. He told of the splen-
did work done by some of the COM
mittees, especially the one that
called on President Wilson in regard
to conditions in Mexico.
Mr.. John A. Doyle gave a very
interesting report of the convention
OF Associated Charities, held in the
city of Washington last month. Some
very instructive talks were given by
Messrs. Mackey, Elder, Weir. Fachs,
Bowling, Doyle, O'Connell, GAM and
some of the ladies, whose names we
did not catch. The Committee on

Frankfort Council No. 1888,
Knights of Columbus, celebrated
October IL columbus day. with a
reception, banquet and dance at K.
of c. Hall on last Monday evening,
which was largely attended by mem
bers of Council No. 1888 and their
families, visiting knights and nu-
merous of their Catholic and nom
Catholic friends. The committee
that had charge of the most
brilliant social function that has
been given In Frankfort in recent
years was composed of Grand
Knight j. J, King, Secretary o. S.
Canty and Chairman of Entertain
ment Committee John w. Williams,
who left nothing undone to enable
their guests to have a pleasant time.
A splendid musical programme was
rendered and impromptu addresses
made by several local and visiting
knights. At 1920 o'clock the COM
modious ball room was turned ever
to the younger members and dane
ing to the music of the celebrated
Second Regiment band and orchestra

night. The affair was by far the
most enjoyable given by Council
No. 1883 in recent years.
The first meeting in October
Council No. 1883 held their annual
election OF officers and the follow
ing. who will serve for the ensuing
year and who will be indicted into
office on November /, were elected:
Rev. Joseph A. Flynn. Chaplain;
George Hammer. Grand Knight; p. T.
Downey. Deputy Grand Knight;
p. B. Lillis. Financial Secretary:
James Heeney, Chancellor; Paul

Sullivan, Treasurer; Michael Sulli- |
van, Warden; Carol Frazier, Out !
side Guard; Butler Ahler, Inside |
Guard; II. F. Lutkemeier, Lecturer;
J. J. King. Trustee; John Barton.
The newly elected officers are
among the leading and most pro-
sressive young business men OF the
'apital city, and the outlook for a
bright and prosperous year under
heir administration has been
greatly enhanced by their selection.
That Council No. 1883 will take on
lew life and greatly increase its
llready large membership during the
text twelve months is the sincere
wish Of their brother Knights Of
