agrees with the party chair

The most important de-

took place last night.
Twenty-four daughters Of
Washington socialites were
presented to the cream Of
residential society at the an

Ball.
The other 40 or more girls
who bowed to Capital society
last June or who are doing
so at other parties this sea-
son were also invited to
make this the most brilliant
affair of its kind.
The handsome Mayhower
Ballroom, lined with its two
tiers Of boxes and draped at
either end with cloth of gold,
provided an elegant setting
for the charming white tie
event. The cloth of gold that
hung from the ceiling was a
backdrop for two huge
Christmas trees made of
garlands of green and SPAR
king with myriad lights at
each end of the room.
Christmas trees festooned
with red ribbons decorated
