4 OClj ?^cs TRY OUT PAGEANT STEPS JANUARY 4 Miss Katherine Noland in New York Getting Tips For Big Ball Should you be lucky enough to sneak A peek at the next rehearsal January 4 of the dancing youths and maidens who will star at the Pageant Ball, you might get a partial idea of what Har risburg's great midwinter benefit social function is going to be. Miss Katherine Noland who will train the pick of the city's dancing youths and maidens, is in New York for the express purpose of getting tips on costumes, color effects and so on. She will be in charge of the big re hearsal January 4 when the partici pants in the various steps will get in structions as to costuming, etc. The Pageant Ball as the committee has decided to call the coming ben»- lit. will be held in Chestnut Street Au ditorium January 20; the llnance com mittee of the Associated Aids Societies which is serving as a committee of arrangements, has planned something a little more gorgeous than 1-iarrisburg has ever known. Th proceeds will be devoted to the general funds of the Aids societies-the Children's Aid Society and the Social Service bureau—and hundreds of dollars will be realized. The I)ancc in the Garden Details as to color and decorative schemes have not vet been definitely decided upon but the committee has arranged tj transform Chestnut Street auditorium Intc a flowering garden— probably of old Japan—on a scale never before attempted here. That the Pageant of Dancingwill de pict the four periods in history—the dances of antiquity, of the middle ages, the rennaissance and the ninteenth eentury—is generally known. And from the time Miss Katherine Noland opens the program in the "dance of the vases" on down to the tlnal number in waltz, the guests will be able to trace the years of history as My Lady and her escort danced them down through the centuries. The "dance of tlie vases" will repre sent Old Egypt and this will be fol lowed with the pretty "flower dance" of the maidens of Greece. So "An tiquity" will bfe portrayed. The "Pa vane," the dance of the "peacock" that was so popular In the Basse provinces will follow. Cardinals and nobles did that dance In the days of the French Henry 111. the faraway days of the middle ages. "liecp the Ball Moiling!" Would you like to see the gavotte danced much as Marie Antoinette did it round about the year 1700 in Paris And the minuet with its dainty dancers in pow dered wigs and flowered silks? That stage, the "dances of the Rennais sance." will be depicted at the Pa geant Ball with all the wealth and truth of color and detail In gown and suiting. Nor will the final stage, the "dajices of the ninteenth century" be without their wealth of delightful col or effect. That was the period of the "Varsovianna." the "Waltz" and the "Mazurka." My Lady will dance the "Varsouvianna," In crinoline and hoop skirt. Just a hint of the sorrow of the saddest country in war-torn Europe may be the mazurka isr danced. The mazurka is one of the national dances of Po land. And then will follow the waltz Q QUALITY SHOES Give "Him" a pair of Stetson Shoes any old size—we'll fit him after Christmas.
