Luncheon for Mr. Frederick A. Stock, guest conductor, January 19th, 1924. Reception to celebrate Twentieth Anniversary of the Women’s Committee, March 14th, 1924. Reception to Mr. Igor Strawinsky, January 30th, 1925. Luncheon to celebrate Twentieth Anniversary of Germantown and Chestnut Hill Women’s Committee, March 31st, 1925. Reception to celebrate Twentieth Anniversary of West Philadelphia Women’s Committee, May 13th, 1925. Among the artists whom the Women’s Committees have entertained, the most popular one is Mme. Olga Samaroff. She is beloved by all the members, and admired, not only because she is a great artist, but on account of her unusual and delightful personality. The women will never forget what she did for the orchestra during her years of residence in Philadelphia. THE ANNIVERSARY BALL FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE CHORUS No mention of the entertainments of the Committees would be complete without an account of this. It was held January 24th, 1921, to mark the Sixty-fourth Anniversary of the opening ball of the Academy of Music, on January 26th, 1857. It should be called a study in co-operation, for besides the four Women’s Committees, almost the whole city joined to make it a beautiful affair and a success. The feature of the evening was the quadrille in the costume of the period to which a number of persons contributed sets, as well as the following organizations. The Co-operating Societies were: Matinee Musical Club, Mendelssohn Club, Musical Art Club, Musical Fund Society, Philadelphia Music Club, Philadelphia Orchestra Chorus, Philadelphia Choral Society, Treble Clef, Fortnightly Club, Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Sketch Club, School of Industrial Art, School of Design for Women, Plastic Club, T Square Club. Old trunks were overhauled and old papers assiduously read to get the local color of the time, so that when row after row of the dancers began to march down from the dais at the back of the stage and take their places on the floor there was a scene of beauty which brought forth rounds of applause. Mr. Charles S. Morgan, Jr., impersonated Mr. Hlasko, Master of Ceremonies, and took charge of the quadrille which he had trained. A Loan Exhibition of much interest was held in the Foyer for which many treasures were unearthed, including “Miss Ethel Newcome,” of London, the doll dating from the Sanitary Fair. Various business firms assisted by contributing materials and allowing the Committees to use their windows for publicity of a unique kind, such as dolls and jewelry of the period. Twenty years before such a joint undertaking would not have been possible, and it was a mark of the general good will felt for the Philadelphia Orchestra. THE OPERA SUPPER DANCES
