Until after the dancing pageant had
been finished the center of the floor
was occupied by the guests. Around
the chair aisles on the side were the
sixteen prettily decorated boxes. The
ratings were hidden beneath smilax.
Each compartment looked for all the
world like tiny garden.
Until the curtain was finally raised
the stage looked like a solid velvet
background. The dancers stepped
from the wings or from the folds of
the curtain to swing into the steps
of the dance. Behind the curtain
was the great rising sun of japan.
Spotlight and electric lighting effects
added a realistic glow.
Add to this the pastel shades of
pink and green and yellow, fashioned
out of filmy stun with mysterious
names which only the society editor
can properly tell fand--you have a
very faint conception of the colorful
splendor of the Charity Ball.

Shortly after 9 o'clock the orches-

big gathering rose in their seats as
Governor Brumbaugh entered the hall.
And little later the booming of the
Jap temple gong announced the open
ing of the program. While Sarah
