It has become the custom for many oummdm, hostesses of official and diplomatic importance to accept the invitation of the Arts Club as patronesses of the Bal Boheme, and to attend the ball. Mrs. Fulton Lewis, vice chairman of the ball executive committee, this sea- son, is chairman of the patronesses, and invitations will go out next week to distinguished Washington women, to serve as 1930 Bal Boheme patronesses. Owing to the brilliant character of the Bal Boheme and its value in the world of society and art, there are not, usually, many declinations, much to the gratification of the Arts Club. The variety of costumes will be great- er this season and more entrancing than ever before, and for that reason ar- rangements have been made to facilitate the work and decision of the four judges of costumes, who will have the responsibility of awarding the three prizes—for the most beautiful, the most original and the most amusing costume worn at the Bal. Since the number of tickets to be sold has been limited to | 1,600 the entire procession of costumed guests will pass in review before the Judges' box according to an _entirely new plan dévised by the committee. The Jjudges, Mr. and Mrs. Howard Chandler Christie of New York City and Mr.and Mrs. Walter R. Tuckerman of Wash- ington, will occupy a special box of honor with Col. and Mrs. John Otto Johnson, the latter chairman of the ball, and Mr. and Mrs. Carlton Van, Valkenburg, Mr. Van kenburg being chairman of judges and awards. The judges will wear specially designed cos- tumes of the early American period, in keeping with their judicial character and the theme of the ball. | The ball is open to the public and | tickets are to be obtained now at the Arts Club, with no increase in the price. Boxes seating eight persons, as well as individual box seats, are like- wise to be had at the Arts Club of Washington. Tickets will be placed on “l“e January 15 at leading hotels in the city. Costumers will come from Philadel- phia prior to the Bal, in order that there shall be a vast variety of cos- tumes from which ball guests may se- lect at their convenience. Information regarding the renting of such costumes may be had at the Arts Club. ‘The Business and Professional Women —_— e T T e onal Women Sallie Hewes Phillips, Miss Barber Nell Thomas and Miss Frances Wall. Now that the holiday festivities are well over, the elaborate plans for the | Bal Boheme of the Arts Club are being rushed to completion by Mrs. John Otto Johnson, and the executive com- mittee of well known artists who have charge of the fate of this year's ball— the “lucky seventh” in the history of the club. " This year’s Bal, known as the “ball of the Americas,” will take place Mon- day evening, January 27, in the Wil- lard, and from all' indications, will prove to be in very truth, the most colorful and brilliant, in the history of the club. The alluring development of the Western World, with all its wealth of atmosphere and dramas, will be aptly epitomized in the “Masque of the Ad- venturers” which is to be the “piece de resistence” of this carnival event of the Capital City’s Winter season. For the past three or four seasons this stunning art event has attracted the attention not only of local artists, t artists from all over the Eastern part of the United Sta as well as Sale at Vansley's There are a few beautiful suits left in the sale at Vansley's, Inc.

If it is,.the new semi-annual sale price which is now presented, we guarantee, will not let you hesitate a minute. You have heard it said that when Pasternak has a sale it is really a sale—and that is true, for all the prices are cut to levels not in keeping with the fine style, quality and making for which the name Pasternak stands. But there must be a complete turnover—not a single dress, gown, hat, coat (fur ones, too, and fur scarfs) and suits is to be car- ried over. So shop early at Pasternak’s.
