AUGUST* SOCIAL SET TURNS
OUT FOR ANNUAL CHARITY BALL
IN AID LOCAL GENERAL HOSPITAL
The annual Charity Ball, held
Thuraday evening at the City hall for
the benefit of the Augusta General
hospital, under the direction of the
Hospital Aid, was largely attended.
It is easily acclaimed a success, both
from the standpoint of being the sea
son'e-leading social event and of add
ing to the coffers of the Aid.
Evergreen trees, tho cream of the
forest, were the prominent decora
tions of the -Aall. Stately fir trees
graced the corners of the hall, formed
a delightful wall for the section re
served for the receiving line and other
guests, filled crooks and corners and
aided in converting the hall into a
solid green bower. Wreaths, many of
them, hung from the panels about the
wall, under the balcony and «jnore
wreaths adorned the balcohy railings.
Nature’s own color predominated
everywhere. A lattice work of green
boughs hid the stage foundation from
i view. Wreaths filled in the lattice
intersections.
The only bit of color in the entire
decorations except the green, was
found at the refreshment table, where
dazzling poinsettas formed a wreath
: about another tiny tree, which stood
guard in the center of the table. The
[ simple decorations proved such a
| surprise and then again 6uch a de
j lightful relief from those of other oc
casions. Effective is the prosaic ad
i Jective to use, yet it is ?he adequate
j cm—for tho decoraticns Vcre just
that.
A maze of colors—attractive maids
and matrops in beautiful gowns—
found a pleasing background in the
bower-like surroundings. Pome very
stunning costumes were observed
among the dancers—especially the
younger society set of the city. Not
everyone, danced because not every
one intends to do so, when every
one goes to the Charity Ball. The
balcony was well filled with specta
i tors until the end of the evening.
Front seats in the balcony were
early filled, some of tlie*pooplc com
ing ns early as shortly after 6 o’clock.
The desire of the committee to
have this year’s Charity Ball what is
known as on old-fashioned Charity
Bail, such as was enjoyed a few
years back, were certainly fulfilled.
The long order of dances was enjoyed
but the novelties, the innovations and
the. original features which find their
way Into local social events, were
conspicuously lacking, Thursday
evening.
The music for the evening wjts fur
nished by Douglas’ orchestra and the
boys ‘did themselves grand’ as the
expression goes in giving to the danc
ers the best of their line. Several
i of the latest musical numbers of the
■ day were featured by the Douglas’
orchestra in their program.
Tho first part of the evening was
taken up with a reception, the mem
bers of the receiving-line, headed by
Mayor Panford I,. Fogg, graciously
greeting tho guests.
Charles 1’. Kinsman was floor di
rector and lie was assisted l>y an ef
; fleient. corps of aids. The evening’s
| events w ere without mar and the en
. tire program was conducted along
(lines as planned with a high credit to
j the various competent committees in
charge.
Those Who Received
In flip receiving' line were Mayor
Sanford I,. Fogg, Sirs. Fogg, Mrs. 1C.
: C. Carll, retiring president of the
i Hospital Aid, Mrs. \V. H. Williams,
i new president of the Hospital Aid,
I Hon. George E. Macomber, Mrs.
I Macomber.
Work of the Aid
It might be well at this time to
I give a brief outline of the work
which the Hospital Aid carries out.
They help the Augusta'.General Hos
pital In many ways. From a $.1,000
| fund they furnish a perpetual free
bed and besides that, each year they
1 raise another amount to furnish a
second free bed. All the sewing of
the hospital Is done by the Aid, they
doing the cutting out and the sew
ing. Aside from this, the Aid does a
great deal of extra work for the hos
pital as the need arises.

Object of Proceed!
The Ladies’ Aid of the Augusta
General hospital, endeavora to keep
stocked the linen, closets of the hos
pital and the proceeds of the Charity
ball are to go towards that purpose.
It takes a great deal of linen to fill
the requirements of this splendid
establishment, the Augusta General
hospital and thus, the work which
the Aid carries on is a most worthy
one.

Annual State Carnival—Now we are
going to let you in on a little secret.
There being only one State Park and
only one Capital City in Maine, the
Winter Sports Committee has staked
out its claim to the undisputed priv
ilege of promoting an annual State of
Maine Winter Sports Carnival at Au
gust^ The first of these carnivals
will occur February ISth and 19th,
1922. Plans are in the making but
we expect to make good in making
this a real State event. Let’s assert
ourselves, fellows, and take what is
ours by right, the right to lead Maine
in State-wide activities.
Hockey League—With unsurpassed
trolley connections, Augusta can be
tho central city in a trolley league
that will embrace Winthrop, Hallo
well, Gardiner, and WaterviHo anil
possibly Lewiston. Secretary Clarke
lias been given the task of forming
the league. ITallotvell is already lin
ed up and Waterville, of her own ac
cord, has asked to enter the league.
Winthrop is getting ready through
the efforts of Hr. W. B. Sanborn and

trick at last and the rink will he eom

Don’t Spoil Your Hair
By Washing It
When you wash your hair, he careful
what you use. Most soaps and pre
pared shampoos contain too much al
kali, which is very injurious, as it
tiries the scalp and makes the hair
brittle.
The best thing to use is Mulsifled
coeoanut oil shampoo, for this is pure
and entirely grraseless. Its very
cheap and heats anything else all to
pieces. You can get Mulsifled at any
drug store, and a jew ounces will last
the whole family for months.
Simply moisten the liair with water
and rub it in. about a teaspoonful of
Mulsifled is all that is required. It
makes an abundance of rich, creamy
lather, cleanses thoroughly, and
rinses out easily. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh
looking, bright, fluffy, waxy and easy
to handle. Besides, it loo^ns and
takes out every particle of dust, dirl
and dandruff. Be sure your druggist
gives you Mulsifled. Adv.

CONY HIGH NOTES
| The Chizzle AVizzlo Fair committee
! has decided upon the form of enter
tainment whh h will be given the
first two nights. This will be a min
I strel show' built around the theme of
the Kennebec Water-Ways. The
name of the extravaganza will bo
j “Deep Serine" or “The Voyage of the
i Good Ship Cony.” The scenario lias
I been prepared by members of ttfo
faculty and offers good chances for
the introduction of rapid-fire end
men stuff, some of the latest popular
songs, both solos ; r.d chorus, and
'other clever special numbers. Mr.
Harrison C. Lyseth will prepare the
orchestration of the muscial themes
and will also direct the selection of
tiie end-men songs and things of
j that kind. Mr. Lys°th has had much
! experience in coaching school min
| strel show s and his work will no
doubt add to the work of tHe program.
Mrs. Atherton, the new supervisor Of
music has been invited to direct the
chorus work and the preparation for
the solos. There will he a larger
number than usual of the group dan
ces and tills feature, of the entertain
ment will be under the direction of
Miss Florence Nichols, supervisor of
physical training. The scenic effects
this year will he gorgeous. It will ho
necessary to reconstruct the City hall
stage to quite an extent to accom
modate the number of people that
will he required.
In connection with the awards of
football letters which is to take place
this morning there will he an added
attraction in the opening of the win
ter sports carnival campaign. Alden
Hitehborn, chairman of the general
committee, Lawrence Purinton, chair
; man of the publicity committee and
; Secretary George Clarlte of the Cham
! ber of Commerce will lie on hand to
: present the matter to the students
: of the High school,
j The basketball game tonight will
, probably bn the best of the season.
I.ast year Morse gave Cony the worst
beating that she received and this
| was on the home floor. All this after
Cony had trimmed such schools ps
Edward I.ittle and Sanford. Cony will
: endeavor to turn the tables this ^ear.
' Morse has a clever team and they
have already defeated Rockland and
jAVesthrook by. big scores, and lost the
; Edward Little game only through i
i fouls. They, have a f no coach this j
(year Jn* Ray Haywood, who has aj
; state-wide reputation ' which was 1
! greatly added to by the work which I
j he did with the Balmont Club of
j Westbrook which won the State
championship. Therefore tho id«yt
that one would get is that the Coify
team has its work cut out for it if
Cony is to score a win. .
