of the winter social season. Carefully
planned by men who know the game, it
promises to eclipse in glamor and
gaiety any function of the sort ever
given in Kenosha. Decorations, music,
spirit, everything will be deluxe and
patriotic and if those are factors con-.
tributive to enjoyment at dance the
Liberty Ball will be the nonpareil even
ing of the. city's wartime calendar.
The entertainment is exploited by
the local Knights Of Pythias, known
since their institution in 1890 as Red
Cross Lodge No. IS. The affair be-
comes then real fulfllment of their
earliest traditions and is consequently
receiving the whole hearted support
and patronage of every man in the
order. The proceeds Of the dance will
go in their entirety to the Kenosha
County Red Cross chapter and will be
used by that association in supplying
Sammies, Polius, and Tommies, with
sweaters for the winter drives.
The music for the dance is note
worthy. Earlier announcements indi-
OfCH0SJTd

but recent negotiations have made pos
sible the acquisition of the Great Lakes
Naval Station Band, an aggregation
OF musicians trained by John Phillip
Sousa, America s most popular compos-
er. AS consequence the Jackies will
be here with bells on and coats Off
ready to deliver the brand of martial
music that has made them dance
favorites in Kenosha.

cludes G. M. Bennett, w. 0. Dixon and
j. E. Rosenblum. They are devoting
every effort to the exploitation of the
Liberty Ball and are receiving ready
cooperation from every member of the
order. Advertising for the function will
be handled by the publicity committee
of the Red Cross Association, headed
