Tonight is the night. The
jtfasquerade Ball will be in full swing
about 9 P. M. Everybody who can
.walk will be there and the^Qid. Year
will be given a rousing send off;* Ev
erything , positively everything and
anything will be allowed within reason
except one thing. Confetti is tabooed.
The Committee in charge wsill forcibly
eject any person who throws or causes
to be thrown one little piece of con
fetti or a strip of aerpentine paper.
kThe reason for this is a good O®0.
Powdered wax has- been used on the
dancing floor and when pieces of pap
er or other foreign matter are scatter
ed on the floor the feet of the daiicers
cause the powdered wax to fill the at
’mosphere with a choking cloud of
dust. Remember no confetti. The
Board of Health and the Committee
will insist that you remember. To
