first duties is to select her pet char
ity and devote her leisure hours to
its services. Though it sounds very
easy to dance for charity on one or
two evenings during the season, that
one or more occasion represents the
consummate achievement of endless
committee meetings, tiresome re-
hearsals, tedious changes of costume
perhaps, and the inevitable sacrifice
of a number of pretty frivolities OF
conflicting date. The Junior League
Play was an example OF weeks OF eff
fort by the younger girls and men in
the society set, and represented a
successful striving for perfection OF
detail worthy professional perform
ance. A number of the same Young
people contributed to the success of
the dancing and skating carnival for
the benefit OF Neighborhood House
last week and others of the same
group invariably assist at the after
noon danSants for charity which are
filling the social program for the
early spring.
The ball for the benefit Of the sick
and wounded Russian soldiers was a
most brilliant and unique affair. The
costumes were very gorgeous and the
elaborate Jeweled kakoshnik, the Rus
sian headdress, which was worn by
most OF the women, added a pic
turcsque touch. The attendance was
notable, including a number Of the
diplomats, while an hours program
by dancers from the Russian ballet
was an interesting feature Of the gen
eral dancing which lasted until the
carly hours. The big charity event
of this week is the bag sale and mi
carcme ball for the benefit Of the
American Red Cross. There will be
bags OF every size and description,
bags OF every price and hue, bags for
every use and vanity, at Rauschcr's
on Wednesday, and most of the bags
will have some interesting bit of his
tory attached. A number of mystcri>
Gus features are promised for the
ball, which will, it seems, digress far
from a lust plain dance" and offers
really interesting entertainment.
