Members of the Arts Club of Wash- i ington are starting preparations for a |beaux arts ball to be given at Rauscher's January 4. At a recent meeting of the board of governors of the club it was de cided to hold this ball as a means of | starting the fund that is needed by the organization for the construction of its proposed annmex, which will serve for an auditorium and exhibi- tion hall, as well as provide a com- modious dining hall. The first plan was to hold the ball on “twelfth night,” a time dedicated in England in olden days to revelries. But un- fortunately “twelfth night” this sea- son falls on Saturday, so it was | necessary to advance the date by one jday. “Twelfth night” features will, phowever, form part of the program of the festivities. A committee of club members is now being organized to make all the prrangements for this affair, which hwill involve an elaborate scheme of Aecorations and the provision of spe- ial attractions in the way of ketches. Costumes are to be worn by those participating. Group and 20lo dancing will probably, be in- luded in the program, and also dra- matic sketches appropriate to the season. Arthur F. Musgrave, president of the Arts Club, is for the present act- ing ‘as chairman of the ball com- mittee for the purpose of getting the organization of the work of preparation under way. A meeting of the committee will be held during the present weel of the company last week. THe regu- lar drill last Tuesday was devoted to map reading and rifie marksmanship. Lieut. Keesee has commenced in- structing a class in_map reading. The Democratic Club of A Com- pény is having weekly practice of the cost that has been selected to stage, the play ‘Looking for Mary Jane” which will be held at the armory in_December. The various prizes won at the an- nual rifle matches last Saturday will be distributed to the winners Tues- day night at drill. ‘The 121st Engineers will attend in a body the Army-Marine foot ball game at American League Park Décember 1. | fteom, 50 per cent more.

It is possible, however, that she will write at least one song in the club's honor. Miss Esther Linkins, director-of the club since its organization, says that in many wayi Mme. Chaminade had shown sincere interest In her namesake club. In her eighth year Mmé. Chaminade played one of her sacred compositions for Bizet, which won his commenda- tion and a prophecy of a brilliant future for her. She was eighteen when she made her formal debut as a pianist, playing as solist with the leading orchestras of the various European capitals. She holds a unique place in modern music. The first concert of the Chaminade Club for this season will be given at the Metropolitan Memorial M. . Church _on November 20.

C, NOVEMBER 11, 1923—PART 1 1 IPAIRING POLICENEN URGED FOR SAFETY Certain Beats Held Too Dan- gerous for One Officer to Patrol Alone. Need for palring policemen on cer- tain beats at night has been brought to the fore by the shooting of Police- ma Victor Kew of the tenth precinct, who was seriously wounded by an unidentified colored man recently. 1t is belleved by police officials that had Kew had a partner with him the night of the shooting he efther would not have been shot or else the as- sallant would have béen captured. Increased police clerical work in the department and other branches of the District rervice has resulted in taking many men from street duty and, according to police officials, made it next to impossible to send men out on duty in pairs. When ‘such & method of policing is mentioned, Inspector Shelby stated, the department finds itself facing the proverbial stonewall—money. The inspector said he fully realized there are a few beats, possibly six, where the men should be doubled &t all hours, while forty or ffty others should be so patrolled between dark and_midnight. “Between midnight and daybreak he added, “all beats should, be co ered by policemen in pairs. Maj. Danicl Sullivan, who served in the runks, probably will make the cuggested change to safeguwrd the | men and give the people better po- i lice protection if he ever succeeds.in | setting raen enough for such purpose. !
