Charity Ball at Academy of Music Draws City's Elite
The annual Charity Ball last night in the Academy of Music featured hundreds of representative men and fair women aiding Germantown Dispensary and Hospital, Training School for Nurses, Western Home for Poor Children, and the Hospital. While socially brilliant, receipts may fall short of last year, with tickets returning and proceeds likely below expectations. The set design evoked ancient Babylon with Minerva as host, and a vivid display of fashion from Mrs. James P. Scott to numerous society leaders, lawyers, and merchants filling the boxes and lobbies. Over three thousand words describe the scene, attendees, and the refined grandeur of this charitable social event.
