COUNTY ASSEMBLY DANCE
SOCIAL HIT OF SEASON

In a maze of soft lights, sweet per-
fumes, gorgeous dresses and music
from which dreams are made, the
County Assembly dance held tn the
Auditorium last night wended its
successful way.
This spring dance wa the most
elaborate as well as select and enjoy
able dance held in this vicinity since
the pre-War time. This dance being
held on a larger scale even put in the
shade the dance unrivalcd Of old
he assembly dances.
Rain poured in torrents without
but only served I'm most cases to give
n contrasting background to the
many colored gowns Of the young
ladies' stepping from the machines
under the canopy and thence up the
ramp, which was mysteriously trans
formed into an entrance 10 a sylvan
dell. The hall was resplendent In It's
setting. The lights were shaded by
various Opalescent colors. giving lust
that suggestion of mystery SO inter-
esting in decorations. Like a mon
strous balloon or cloud was an object
suspended in miduir. This, later in
the evening. was opened and hum
dreds of balloons hOated down from

one end. OF the hall was furnished
as would be a reception hall in a

lamps bordered by a hedge of palms
and ferns. Behind this wall the
patrons and -patronesses presided.
Directly opposite them at the other
end of the hall was a raised platform
also hemmed in by foliage from
which Van Epp's eight-piece orehes-
ira presided.
Two or three moonlight waltzes
were featured during which many
colOred lights were thrown on diff
ferent couples around the room. Two
fuckers were also executed with
Harry Hardiman acting as master OF
ceremonies. Mr.. Hardiman's skill IN
operating the intricate numbers OF
the dance successfully with such q
large number in attendance Is worthy
of mention. One Of the prettiest
dances of the evening from the on
lockers point of view was a twilight
dance at which time the lights were
partly extinguished and the eolorlng

dress suits gave a picture not soon to
be forgotten within the vicinity of
Perth Amboy. Punch was served
throughout the evening with Mrs.

light refreshments were also served.

voice when he spoke again.

THE ARTIST m BORSCHKE
SHOWN AT FINE CONCERT

Adolphe Borschke. the Polish pi-
anist-compoSer, o~ver-reached his rep
utation herr as an artist of the first
rank. before a small but a~ppreciativo
audience In the high school audito-
rum last night. While, from his
earlier concert, and by reputation,
Mr.. Borschke Is well known. his in
terpretations last night showed him
TO be the artist, who after mastering
his craft seeks inspiration from all
sources and brings all the forces Of
life to bear upon his chosen mode Of
expression. Mr.. Borschke proved
that he is the artist who causes us,
whether we be earned or simple, art
lists ourselves or just the throng TO un-
derstand the beauty Of the world
translated into music.

pins Military Po1onaise." Wagner

and his own compositions. Souvenir

cert" all proved that in Mr.. Borschke
one hears composer of wonderful ere
prefer and a finished technician.
Great musicians are generally sup
posed to despise popular tunes, so
called. and TO regard simple theme
presented with variations as out-of-
date. Not SO, however. B~orschke.
At his concert last night, among the
several encores which he was obliged
to respond to he gave a brilliant pi-
anlstic version of the popular "Ro-
sary'' and then as encore to encore,
he gave Believe Me II All Those
Endearing Young Charms' with won
derfully intricate variations, through
which the sweet, old tune sang its
way melodiously.

well deserved reputation here.
Among the out of town guests
were present Miss Margaret Merring-
ton, the English novelist. and Paul
Litten. the Belgian poet, who are
great admirers of Mr.. Borschke.

Often one speaks of a ragout, and,
perhaps, IL we were to define this
word. 1t might help the housewife
to keep the fact in mind. The thrifty
French housewife knows that a ragout
is an economical method Of cutting
the high cost or living.
The word "ragout' from ra-
Coulter. to create new taste or flavor.
The dictionary describes the word
ragout as n stew made to stimulate
the appetite. irrespective of whether
It is made from leftover or from new
materials.
But the bonnie femme OF France
knows this word has an entirely diff
ferent meaning; ragout pronounced
ragoo,) TO her is a delicious, well-sea-
soned combination of meat and vege-
tables that is cooked slowly in n cas-
serole dish.
Tho French housewife markets
daily, owing to the fact that She does
not usually have her icebox or storage
place for food. So for her family Of
five she will purchase.

Three onions,

Lawrence gave her a glance of
surprise. Usually Alice was enthu-
siastic over driving and could not do
enough of 1t.
shall we take the hort cut TO
Burby and let her out on the back
road?" he asked. He was talking of
one of the spots so dear to motorists,
where a good road was less carefully
watched and speeding was possible.
Again Alice shook her head. She
was looking far over the hills,
her gray-blue eyes rather serious in
expression.
Lawrence laid his free hand over
hers.

asked. You haven't been your usual
