The story, which we quote below,

CHARC|TY BALL
is AFFAIR OF
SATURDAY Mite

The Charity Ball, an annual har-
vest seasons social function, af-
fords an opportunity for those who
especially enjoy an evening of
dancing to contribute a bit toward
the community charity fund, solic-
tied and spent each year for the
relief of the needy families and to
bring some especial relief at the
Christmas season.
The philanthropic department of
the Woman's Club, which sponsors
the charity ball, functions as the
recognized associated charities or
ganization of the community, and
through the board of this depart
ment a great amount off charity
is Systematically dispensed. All re-
ported cases are investigated and
relief given wherever found nee
essary.
There is more relief needed this
year of 1880 than ever before, and
those who are fortunate enough to
enjoy good health and good jobs
have chance to give relief to the
poor that they should not over
4ook.
The affair will be held at Labor

ed taxation and economy and clos
ed his address by declaring that if

obstrucionist nor do anything that

county or state. The next speaker
was Alex Fairgrieve, candidate to
