Music, faetorv vfhlstleh and church hells
will be the dominant notes in a merrj
potpourri of welcome.
The clinking of glasses and the pop
ping of corks will be part of the great
chorus, for, despite the advocates of
Saharpsque sentiment, there will bo
many wet spots in arid Philadelphia.
They will ho found in hotels and cafes,
whither nri-colorcd liquids, calculated
to dispell gloom and bring forth jov, will
be bought and uncorked bj thirsty pa
trons at so much per cork.
(ilibly sneaking, thej expect to hnc a

and up per seat in some places. This
Is for the mere priulcgp of sitting at
the table and listening to the cabarets.
But, in view of the prosperous ear just
fading ?wa, those who thrived, duimg
the golden moments do not hesitate at
the high cost of pleasure.
Clubs to Entertain
Special entertainments hao been ar
ranged at many clubs and in some in
stances singers and dancers have been
brought on from rsevv lortt to give a
varied touch to the festivities.
Incidentally, it will be a bad night
for burglars and holdup men for nearly
every one will be up, wide awake, armed
and ambitious.
In emphatic contrast to the revelry
in many sections of the city, man of
the churches will hold the night watch
services to offer thanks for the benefits
of the departing ear and pray for
henlth nnd happiness In 11)20. Special
musical programs have been nrrangpd
for thpsn services. In many cases they
will he followed bv n New Year break
fast in hnlls nnd auditoriums adjoin
ing the churches.
many All-Night Ralls
Realising that scores of pickpockets,
known for their velvet toucn, are at
tracted to this citv on New Year's
Hvp, a large number of plain-clothes
men will be scattered through the
throngs in the central part of the city
looking eagerlv for fnces which har
monizo better behind steel bars with a
Ernv background.
Possibly the most strenuous of to
night's festivities will be the nil-night
balls of the New Year clubs. Many of
those who participate will dance until
after daybreak, and then after a few
minutes for breakfast, take part in the
long inarch of the mummers on Broad
