which the dance was given is too small for the purpose The hall itself however is a bijou and was beautifully decorated the flags of the nation na-tion predominatinl in festoons and the always al-ways beautiful national colors adding a I brightness and appropriateness that was simply perfect The orchestra which was placed upon tho stage maae lovely music and during dur-ing the intermissions many 1
