Pan Hot Springs and Inn Host to Newspapermen THIRTEEN NEWSPAPER MEN of Orange county, together with newspaper men and radio station of Los Angeles were guests last week-end at the Pan Hot Springs and Inn at Big Bear. The Springs conducted by Mrs. Olive Jessurun and her daughter is shown above. Inset shows indoor fed with warm radio active water.

Fourth thing—Around midnight they took a plunge in a large pool filled with warm water fresh from the springs—water which comes up from 1,800 feet beneath the valley; water soft as silk.

A fortifying breakfast of grape fruit, eggs, potatoes, crisp buttered toast, and coffee that was good up to and including the last drop of the third cup. Rain and snow were pouring out of the clouds outdoors. Big Bear valley is surrounded by imposing mountains, 7,000 to 8,000 feet high, and the valley itself is 6,700 feet above sea level. The base of the mountains is deeply fringed with forests of stately pine trees, which drop bushes of huge cones on the ground. Higher up, the mountains are covered with sage bushes. Trees and bushes are now a rich green in color, and last Sunday they were beautifully draped in snow. They made an entrancing picture from the windows of the lounge. It is a region of scenic pictures, fine for hiking and trout fishing. Big pine logs were feeding the brilliant yellow flames in the cavernous fireplace. The scribes and Pharasms gathered about the fire, smoked, and read the "buldog" editions of Los Angeles Sunday newspapers, printed goodness only knows how many days before, yet dated last Sunday. Sewling Society Meets There was not a thimble, not a needle and thread, in the crowd, but Carl Havelin and Seymore Hastings, both of radio station KFI, promoted the organization of the Big Bear Sewing Society, and this is the program of talks which was given: Eugene Grant—"Why I Left Home." Mason Yould—"Prohibition as I Can't See It." Sam Meyer, Newport News—"Why Don't The Jews Own the Country?" F. H. Fowler, Yorba Linda Star—"They Do Own It, Including Los Angeles."

The land again, after centuries of barrenness, begins "to bloom as the rose." Zionists from all over the world work side by side with the developers. We are spending ten days in the Persian colony in Halfa. Our journey has all been a dream, but this part of it especially is outside all of our former experiences. Nearly a hundred years ago a prophet, called Baha Ollah, arose in Persia, teaching that God must be served, not through forms and prejudices, but by service to one's fellowmen. The Message of Christ It was the message of Christ to the people of the East. The first followers were regarded as heretics and were cruelly persecuted. Baha Ollah and his family, with 70 others, were banished to Acca, on the Mediterranean and imprisoned there. Upon their liberation they remained and the son, Abdul Baha, became the leader of a great movement which has reached out over the whole world. It is a re-statement of what all great prophets and saints have taught, the sublimity of service, the necessity of education, the brotherhood of man in the Fatherhood of God. Never have I seen the basic principles of religion more beautifully exemplified than in the lives of these followers. Culture, refinement, kindness and simplicity radiate in their lives. We sail for home on April 17, so we will see you very soon. Few Local Mexicans Join Great Exodus (Continued from Page 1) off foods, often heaping their little wagons to overflowing with them. They take the food home, make soup of it. And that is how these Mexican fathers, mothers and children live. What is garbage to a well-to-do family is food to these hungry Mexicans. But imagine living on such soup two or three times a day, week after week! The treke back to Old Mexico has been in progress for several weeks and it is estimated that by mid-summer 70,000 Mexicans will have left Southern California for the homeland. It is regarded as the greatest migration of a people in the history of America and in numbers exceeding the Biblical exodus of the Children of Israel.

A most delectable lunch at noon, and then "good-bye" to the charming hostesses of Pan Hot Springs Inn. And a super-glorious time was had by each and all. Mrs. Easton Writes of Holy Land Trip (Continued from Page 1) "A cloud no bigger than a man's hand," and had faith that the drought would be broken. Now, at Eastertime, it is not easy to think that the summers here are long and grevious. Before the Hebrews worshipped here, it was the stronghold of Bacchus and Pau. Olives and grapes have clothed the slopes of Carmel for thousands of years. Not only in Halifa but throughout Palestine, the Templars have planted colonies which are flourishing communities. The World War and its aftermath inflicted heavy losses of men and money. The Turks held the country and were Going By Train Loads One of the largest of these migrating groups, made up of 1150 men, women and children, left Los Angeles last Thursday in two sections of the Southern Pacific's Sunset Limited. One section of the train carried Mexicans bound for Nogales and the other for El Paso. From these, two cities they will be distributed in Old Mexico. Another 1000 left Los Angeles early this week. While thousands have been leaving by train, others have gone in their own rickity automobiles. Reports from the motoring families say that some of them have become stranded after crossing the boundary line—without food or shelter, without gasoline for their cars. They are stranded "high and dry," without funds to go on or to come back. Arrangements for the going of the Mexicans are being made through Consul-General De la Colina and Dr. Alejandro Wallace, heads of the Mexican relief organizations in Los Angeles. Arrangements are being made to send other train loads from week to week. Plans are also under way between Mexican and American authorities to charter a passenger ship and sent an entire shipload of the returning Mexicans to Acapulco, on the west coast, from where they can make their way inland. Have Become Fear-Ridden The Mexicans also have become fear-ridden at renewed activity of immigration officials, which they have misinterpreted as a wholesale deportation campaign directed against their nationality. Immigration authorities, however, deny a campaign against any single nationally and assert they are interested only in those subject to deportation under law. Those who are leaving will doubtless never return because of the restriction the U.S. laws place upon entry of foreigners. We always thought Easter eggs were colorful until we saw some of those 1931 model lounging pajamas. ANAHEIM GAZETTE Newspapermen er men and radio station managers Inn at Big Bear. The Inn and above.

Affairs of Week at Nation’s Capital (Correspondence to The Gazette) Washington, D. C. Who will be the Speaker of the House in the next Congress? "Nick" Longworth was not yet in his grave when the political gossips began to buzz that question around. It is a hard one to answer because of the considerable doubt as to whether the Republicans will be able to organize the next House. As things stand now the Republicans have a nominal majority of one. But that includes several members of strongly insurgent tendencies, who may find it expedient for reasons relating to their own chances of re-election to get off the reservation and line up with the insurgent Senate bloc headed by Norris and LaFollette. If they should bolt the Republican caucus, then the Democrats would organize the House, and in that case there is no question who would be Speaker. It would be Congressman John W. Garner of Texas, whose personal popularity on both sides of the center aisle is almost as great as was that of Speaker Longworth, and who is the undisputed leader of the Democrats. Nobody can tell now how the unexpired term of Mr. Longworth and one or two other Republican members who have died since election will be filled. Democrats may be elected in any or all of the special elections. But assuming that all the seats now vacant and to become vacant are filled by Republicans, and that all of them obey the crack of the party whip and vote for the caucus candidate, then the contest at the moment seems to be narrowed down to Representative John Q. Tilson of Connecticut, the Republican floor leader, and Representative B. H. Snell, of New York, the Chairman of the Committee on Rules. It is hardly likely that either of those four miles above San Juan Capistrano. Trabuco creek can be regulated at some future time when the necessity for a greater degree of flood control or conservation arises. Carbon and Brea Creeks "Carbon canyon creek is controlled through the construction of an earth dam 115 feet high located above Olinda and storing 2500 acre feet. Brea creek will be regulated through a single reservoir located above the city of Fullerton, formed by an earth dam seventy-three feet high, impounding when full 3300 acre feet. The lower 1000 acre feet of storage space is for conservation purposes, the remainder for the regulation of floods. Fullerton reservoir will regulate damage floods from the foothill drainage originating between Brea and Olinda. Joint Enterprise Proposed "Coyote creek control should be a joint enterprise between Los Angeles and Orange counties and working out a plan deferred for future co-operation between the two counties." The report also recommends sewage reclamation to be accomplished by a water department or sanitary district. The water would be used for agricultural purposes. Fishermen Leave for Fighting Trout Anaheim fishermen, especially those desiring to treke by mountain streams after the fighting rainbow trout, this week were impatient for the fishing season to open. May 1. Nimrods prepared to leave in numerous small parties for Lake Arrowhead and Big Bear for trout fishing, and for Moreno, Sweetwater, Hodges and Wolford lakes in San Diego county for bass fishing. L. N. (Pete) Wisser, who dispenses fishing and hunting licenses to local nimrods, stated Wednesday that because of rainy weather it appeared doubtful if trout fishing in streams would prove profitable before the middle of next week. He explained that fishermen have learned that fishing in muddy creeks isn't conducive to good results, and that those who desire to hike along the streams might best wait a few days. Well, next year is national campaign year and than a lot of the unemployed can get jobs standing on soap boxes. Democrats may be elected in any or all of the special elections. But assuming that all the seats now vacant and to become vacant are filled by Republicans, and that all of them obey the crack of the party whip and vote for the caucus candidate, then the contest at the moment seems to be narrowed down to Representative John Q. Tilson of Connecticut, the Republican floor leader, and Representative B. H. Snell, of New York, the Chairman of the Committee on Rules. It is hardly likely that either of those members will have a walkover, however. It is more probable that some sort of compromise will be arrived at between the regular Republicans and the insurgents, who would be permitted to name the Speaker provided he was someone the regulars could support. In that case either Representative Homer Hoch of Kansas or Representative C. William Ramseyer of Iowa might be acceptable. Both are progressives, but less radical than some others in the group. Representative Burton L. French of Idaho, who has served 24 years in the House, is another progressive Republican who might not be unacceptable to the conservative element. There is good precedent for passing up the floor leader of the party, for that happened to Representative Mann of Illinois when Gillett of Massachusetts was elevated to the chair. Socially the position of Speaker carries one of very high rank. The Speaker and the Speaker's wife, if he has one, take precedence over the justices of the Supreme Court and their wives, except the Chief Justice, and over all Senators and their wives. That is regarded as important, in Washington. A couple of years ago there was a lot of gossip about the so-called "feud" between Alice Roosevelt Longworth and Mrs. Dolly Gann, the sister of Vice-President Curtis, who has no wife and whose sister is the hostess of his home. There wasn't anything personal about that at all; Alice and Dolly are close personal friends, calling each other by their first names. But Mrs. Longworth was upholding the dignity of her husband's office. A Vice-President's wife is one thing. His sister is something else again, especially when she has a husband who has no official position. When the State Department refused to decide the question of priority at social functions, Alice and Dolly settled it between themselves by arranging that they would never go to the same official dinners and receptions.

The eyellets may be done in all-over effect or they may be used in border or band arrangement. You may buy machine-made eyelet-embroidered material or make them yourself. At all events you should know how to make eyelets because they are useful as well as ornamental. To make them you should have a metal or bone stilletto. Mark the place where you wish to have the eyelet accurately and then, holding the material firmly in the left hand, pierce through with the stiletto, pushing it down to make the perforation of the desired size. Thread your needle with buttonhole twist or cotton of matching or contrasting color and take even, small stitches around the edge of the eyelet and then work an even row of buttonhole stitches round the hole, or if the material is very sheer, simply work a row of fine over-and-over stitches to bind off the circle. Run the thread under the stitches on the under side and cut it off. Eyelets may be used for purely or- namental purposes or you may work them on cuffs, neck opening or front closing of a blouse as openings through which to run ribbons or cords to be used in place of buttons or other fasteners. Sometimes the cuffs of sleeves are finished with eyelets made in this way to be used with buttons put together with shanks of thread drawn through the eyelets. The shanks are cut when the dress or blouse is washed and the buttons are thus removed.
