Great Charity Ball Will FolIow
 Easter

The Charity ball which Is 10 be given by the Lihiy Heflin unit on the Monday after Easter, gives promise of being one Of the most beautiful social events of the year. The decoration committee, of which Mrs Sam Adler and Mrs. 10. B. Vaughan are chairmen. searched far and wide for some novel idea for decoration, and finally found the in- spiration "at home so to speak, in the gardens and woods about Bir- mingham which are so brilliant these spring days with their peach bios sons wlstarla and new green leaves. So the ballroom at the Country club g to be a great garden and the ball a spring festival The members of the decoration committee which is responsible for this plan are: Mrs. Eugene Munger Mrs. Frank Grider, Mrs k. M. Williamson, Mrs. Nor timer Baldwin, Mrs. Theodore Swann. Mrs Gaston Torrance, Mrs. kd War ren, Mrs. ". s. Rice. Mrs. Alfred walker, Mrs. Omer Brasier and Mrs. F.mmie Barnett. When asked for de- tails of the decoration these women rsply very nysteriously and will only tell you that the ballroom Is to be aesioI of spring color, and that the decorations which they are mak- ing are so beautiful that 1t Is a joy to work with them.
 At the first Charity ball which tho linley Heelin unit gave two years ago. money was raised for me- sncrisl fund for the new Children's hospital. Ever since that time the unit has been making money for similar charities about Birmingham. Besides helping the ehildrens Aid. giving books to the blind. and talk ing a very prominent part in aiding the Childrens hospital through the doll bazaar. the unit has helped many individuals who have found their lot laid for the time in dis couraging places. and have only needed some strong hand to raise them to their feet again. ITO help others to help themselves" is the purpose of the unit. and 1t is the carrying out of this purpose in quiet way among individuals that is perhaps the best work of the or ranization. Many appeals have been made. moreover. from organized charities about Birmingham, and 1t Is to meet these calls and the needs of the individual case that the Charity ball is being given.
