"New York Society Outlines Colorful Winter Season Christmas and New Year programs Loom Large in Horizon—Announced Wedding Engage- ments Also Conspicuous Feature. NEW YORK, December 8 —With the ! Christmas and New Year holiday events looming large in the social pic- ture being limned by the members of society here, an outstanding feature is the annual Russian ball to be held on January 7 at the Ritz-Carlton. Invi- tations to the patronesses will be ex- tended by the Princess Serge Obolensky and there are a number of interesting events being planned in connection with the affair. Scenes reminiscent of old Russia, in the brilliant days when the court of that nation was renowed for gorgeous effects, will mark the scttings for the dance. As in years past there will be a debutante committee in distinctive costumes, wearing the Moscovite head- dress. These girls will sell gayly colored baloons and artificial flowers. The pro- ceeds will be devoted to the Russian Church assistance fund. v During supper dancing contests will be held, and this year prizes will be :wsrdcd for the waltz, tango and fox rot. The Russian Church Assistance Fund ‘was organized about two years ago, with the object of helping the Russian Church in America to overcome her present great difficulties. To encourage the laity to make the Russian Church in this country as a whole self-supporting and to assist the defense of the church against the at- tacks of its enemies is the immediate @im of the work. The directors of the Russian Church Assistance Fund include George Zab- riskie, John C. Livingston. Sergei Rach- maninoff, the Very Rev. John Telep, Ephraim Panchishin, I. I. Sikorsky, Prince Serge Gagarin, Alexis R. Wiren, Stephen Kuzmich, the Rev. J. Kap- panadze and Haley Fiske. Junior League Sponsers Conspicuous Program. Among the interesting activities of the Junior League of this city, are the establishing of two business enterprises to insure a steady and reliable income for the maintenance of its charities. The proceeds will be devoted to several of the praiseworthy causes which are sponsored by the organization. The Boys’ and Girls' Bookshop, 460 Park avenue, has formed an affiliation with the league whereby members will 1 %sponsor the shop and receive a per- centage of the gross sales. Miss Paul- ine Dodge heads the commnittee in «charge of sending girls to the shop on different days, while Mrs. Richard XKimball, formerly Miss Josephine Dodge, is actually in charge. Concurrent with the book exhibit ¥ there will be on display toys and dolls of all countries. Of perhaps more far-reaching inter- est to the public is the business op- rtunities gaency recently established, iss Jane Watson already had inau- gurated a bureau of volunteer work- ers, but to relieve the pressure upon the office force of continually answer- ding calls from various sources for in- numerable types of jobs to be filled by Junior League girls, and to assist those same girls to secure salaried jobs, it was decided to establish a regular business opportunities agency, which already has obtained its license and be- gun to function.
