DEAR, rTitlJi Christmas dance I the Harrisburg Com munity Theater at the Penn Harris last night, which opened the season of festivities and gaieties, proved to be veritable fashion show. The gowns were positively beauti ful, colorful, gay, dignified, chic or bizarre, as the various personalities or types demanded. Mrs.

Fred C. Morgan, president of the group, was stunning in a gown of black flat crepe, with the very long and circular skirt and the cowl neck which are the mode. Mrs. Farley Gannett gown was of black and gold metal cloth, with which she wore a wrap of cerise col ored velvet. Mrs.

Ritchie Lawrie wore a frock of white taffeta and tulle. An unusual gown was the one worn by Mrs. Morley W. Baker. It was of black net with a huge bow in the back bound in pale green satia, With long black gloves and black crepe shoes it made a striking cos tume.

"Peach and plum" seems to be i strange way of describing an eve ning frock, but really they are the nearest colors I can call to mma, and It was really a delightful com bination worn by Helen Armstrong. The gown was of the lovely peachy" flat crepe with the bustle effect, in the back and was trimmed with bands of the purple. Another gownx modelled upon similar lines was that worn by Lov iftia Buckwalter, who made such a "hit" as leading woman in our last show, if you recall.

Mrs. Victor Lecoq's usual chic was displayed to advantage in a gown of dull green lace with slippers of the same shade.

Mrs. Cameron L. Baer looked lovely in a gown of black lace and chiffon which brought out the silver lights in her hair so beautifully; while her daughter, Louise, who as you know is home from New York recuperating from an operation, wore a stunning gown of green satin with shoes of the same material and color and custume jewelry to match. Louise was wearing a nexquisite white Porto Rican shawl which was her grandmother's, and looked pretty as a picture. Green was also chosen by Eleanor Henschen, who wore a chiffon gown with little touches of silver and lace, most becoming; and by Dorothy Frazer, whose gown was of tulle in very pale shade of green, embroidered in pastel shades.

Mrs. Theodore Woolsey Johnson, better known to you as Bettina Stine, wore a very good looking srown of black velvet with a Gre cian bodice of lamme studded with rhinestones. I also noticed Mrs. Gaylord Fish in a mot becoming gown of coral colored chiffon; Mrs. Thamzlne Cox Drake, in a lovely model of sal mon colored chiffon, and Mrs.

Walter H. Gaither in an attractive frock of evening blu? satin. Mary Elizabeth Doutrich, who is home for vacation from the Fairmont School in Washington, looked quite grown up in a frock of black flat But most unusual was the gown worn by Elizabeth Shear ei. It consisted of a long skirt of blue velvet with a tuck in blouse of metal cloth in rose, blue and sil ver. Sara Jeanette ueuevee, home from New York, and Betty McCord were both wearing red, the former's gown being of taffeta and velvet and the latter's of all over taffeta.

White surel does show up to ad vantage on the dance floor, doesn't it? Thr very attractive white gowns wre worn, one of chiffon with many ruffles by Clara Clothier one of taffeta and tulle by Mrs. P. M. Schuchart, and another a Col onial model of flat crepe, worn by Mi'dred Smyser. By the way the Schucharts have as their guest during the Christmas holidays Mr.

Schuchart's brother, John, who is a student at Washing ton and Lee University. Edith bishop, too, wore a stun ning gown of white flat crepe with deep cowl neckline, and a narrow belt of rhinesbones. And Eliza Lee Russell's gown was striking. It was of white flat crepe with embroid ered specks of red here and there Oia sno. wer strap and girdle of red sequins, wmte crepe shoes with rea dows compietec.

the costume. Mrs. Heist Kulp and Mary Troup were both wearing black satin which had an interesting effect upon two very different types. Mar. garet McDevitt looked very well In a flat crepe gown of fuschia shade, very low in the back with some sort of loose shoulder panels which were most graceful.

Marion Shaw, who with Ralph Foster made the posters which caused so much favorable comment in the decorations last night, wore a charming gown of beige colored satin with a scalloped hemline faced in pale green satin. Mrs. Wareham S. Baldwin looked well in a gown of robin's egg blue flat crepe and tulle with a metallic girdle, while Constance Beidleman looked equally well in a frock of pale blue chiffon. And I believe they were about all who come within my line of vision except that I did glimpse Mrs.

Stanley Livingston in egg shell satin; Mrs. Samuel Lynn, of Williamsport, who is her guest, in chartreuse flat crepe; Melba Farns ler, in rose colored satin; Jean Snyder and Eliza Bretz in flame colored chiffon, and Peg Joseph in black moire. Mr. and Mrs. "Walter E.
