2 MM CHARITY BALL TO PLEASE HUNDREDS Invitations For Big Social Event January 20 Arc Being Issued WHY SO MANY WILL DANCE Needs of Associated Aids So cieties Beal Bcasons For Gorgeous Event While ihe charity ball. January 20, is to be a very corneous affair—color ful and frolicsome—the purpose for which the bis? event is being planned is worth well thinking about, too. Hundreds and hundreds of folks who are,arranging to attend the ball only give a passing thought, perhaps, to the great motive which is actuating] an earnest committee of well-known i society women and prominent business J men to give Harrisburg the most gor- | geous affair of its kind in the city's j social history. The needs of the Associated Aids So cieties of Harrisburg are the real rea- ] sons for the ball. Both branches of ■ the big charitable organization—the i Social Service Bureau and the Chil-1 dren's Aid Society—are accomplishing ] work of which the average citizen rarely ; dreams. The Social Service Bureau's slogan is prevention rather than direct help wherever such a theory can be applied. For instance, the bureau tries to find a Job for the head of a needy family whereby he can earn a liveli hood without the loss of self-respect which the acceptance of charity might' entail. The Children's society lias juris diction over all of "the least of these." In the meantime the invitations and tickets for the charity ball are crowd ing the mails. The committee is send ing them out to-day. While the mailing committee is busy with this detail the decorations com mittee is finishing the preparation of i hundreds and hundreds of bunches of tissue paper wistaria and Japanese iris for the Japanese garden. The dancers are rehearsing their steps un der the' direction of Miss Katherine Noland and the costutners are busy planning the wonderful gowns and bats. The music will be furnished bv two orchestras. StaufTer's orchestra, of Carlisle, will alternate with Miss Sara I.emer's crack body of musicians. The Literal Circle of the V. M. j 11. A. and the Ladies' Auxiliary will meet every Wednesday evening at the clubhouse on North Sixth street, be ginning January 12. it was decided at a meeting last Tuesday. St. Mary's Church. Fifth nnd Ma clay streets, will give a five hundred «nd eucher party at Witnerdale on Monday exening. January 24. at which Miss Sara Lemer's orchestra will play. J W.

The House that Jack Built might have been good enough in its time, but Joseph \V. Pomraining can build a much better and up-to-date one.
