MUSICAL COMEDY HERE

The Girls Club of Perth Amboy
have definitely contracted with John
B. Rogers Producing Company to
produce n OF their latest and best
musical comedies here on the nights
of June 10 and II in the Majestic
theatre. The title of the show Sc
lected is "All Aboard" and is from
the pen of the late Junie McCree.
New York put the stamp of approv-
ago, when it enjoyed an extended
run on Broadway. The chairmen
heading the committees in charge OF
the production appointed by the
general chairman, Miss Doris
Willsey, chairman of the dramatic
department of the club, are all cap
able young women. Miss Claire
Pfeiffer, second vice president of the
club, heads the talent committee,
which will begin it's selection Of a
cast the early part of next week.
Miss La Verne DeHamm heads the
program committee. Miss Sally
Michaels heads the publicity COM
mittee, while last but by no means
chairman Of the ticket committee,
which will issue tickets within the
mex ten days.
The comedy will include all local
talent with special scenery and cos
tunes exactly as shown in New
York. The cast will not only include
all of the Girls Club members but
a large number of the other talent
ed young men and women residing
in this city. One of the hrm's ex-
pert producers will arrive in this
city exactly n week from this
coming Monday to begin rehearsals
and the following weeks will be
crammed with efforts on the part of
all to make this the largest event of
it's kind ever staged in this city.
The Girls Club have been wanting
a Y. w. c. A. for a long time and
the comedy to be presented in the
Majestic theatre at this time will be
their first step toward the goal. TO
be sure there is a fund to which the
girls have been adding from time
to time through the Y. w. c. A.
cafeteria and other ear but the
comedy will be the first big effort to
raise a huge sum with which to start
a Y. w. C. A. and bring the memo
rial to their late president, Mrs.
Ruth Fletcher Burns.

SALVATION ARMY

Still Far From $1,000 Quota
Set for City and Much
Work Must Yet be Done.

Report at the Salvation Army
Headquarters last night showed that,
with half the allotted days OF the

authorities were greatly pleased
with this result, but realized that II
the quota is to be reached, a decided
effort must be made today and to-
morrow. The difficulty of soliciting
funds at this time when there are
so many drives, and such general
business depression, seems to have
been surmounted by the workers who
have been out thus far, manifestlng
the interest of the community in this
movement.
Much is expected of the Girls
Club and other workers who viii
have complete charge of tag day
tomorrow and Miss Liesa Henry in
charge of the activities Urges all
members of the Girls Club to regis
ter at the Salvation Army head
quarters tonight or tomorrow morn
ing at 8 o'clock.
The taggers will be the guests OF
the salvation Army tomorrow at
lunch and dinner which will be
served in the Y. M. c. A. by Mrs.
liver Larson from IL until / o'clock
and from S until Z. All the taggers
are asked to plan to have their
meals at the "Y" during these hours.
Further arrangements will be given
out by the captains.
Tagging the automobiles will also
be one of the features of tomorrow's
activities, and on every ferry there
Twill be stationed two workers who
will either paste the automobiles or
solicit donations.
More workers. both men and wom-
An are needed for today and tomor-
20 and can enlist their services at
the Salvation Army headquarters on
Madison venue.
Aytther appeal Is made to the

IN THE SOCIAL WORLD
Y. W. H. A. TO GIVE
ROSE DANCE JUNE 9

As June is the month of roses. the
Y. w. II. A. have decided TO give a
rose dance on the night Of Thursday,
June o. as their second and hnal
large dance of the season in the Y.
M. H. A. auditorium. The committee
which was appointed at the last
meeting of the organization met last
night at the home of Miss Ruth Alt
man and after a lengthy discussion
decided upon the aforementioned
name. Although the last dance OF
the Y. w. II. A., the Japanese occa-
sion, was delightful because of its
formally, the rose dance Will be just
as enjoyable because of its informal
ity. June is often a warm month
and summer dress will be much more
appropriate than evening for that
season of the year.
Preparations for the dance are al
ready under way and even though
the date seems several weeks off the
committee are planning several nov-
city dances and effusive decorations.
Contrary to the former formal occa-
sion the music will be local and the
|committee. realizing that the success
of every dance lies in this feature,
are already combining their efforts
to bring forth a surprise in this line.
The Y. w. III. A. nave not flooded
the season with dances this year, but
the dances which have been given
under their auspices. have been those
never to be forgotten occasions. The
committee for the rose dance include
the Misses Elizabeth Doris, Eta
Singer, Rose Gavronsky. Julia HEX
sch, Ada Carson, Hannah Epstein.
Dora Levine. Lillian and Sarah Fine.
Helen Sarokin, Mrs. Nathan Prem
niger, Mrs. David Metzendorf, and.
OF course. the president, Miss Rose

committee will be held In the Y. NJ.
