McCOMB The writer and his wife had the pleasure Monday of being the first two persons to be served luncheon at Staar's Orange Gardens, the new, delightful room at Harbor boulevard and Ball road. Formal open house of Staar's Orange Gardens will be held Saturday afternoon from 1:30 o'clock until 5:30 o'clock. We were seated beside a west window in the attractive main dining room. Through the window we could see much of the flower-covered front yard, with its many varieties of citrus plantings and colorful flowers. On the wide porch were two tables seating four persons and in the yard, under bright yellow umbrellas were two more tables. Across the room was a large fireplace, and through the wide windows we looked out into an orange grove. Along the white walls were many interesting old pictures and prints and maps of the Old Southwest and California. If we have pictured Staar's Orange Gardens as a home it is understandable because it looks much like a private residence. The building is a long, low California-type structure and the gardens which surround it give the appearance of a well-kept home. Mrs. McComb ordered the chicken dinner while the writer had the ham dinner. We were served quietly and efficiently and thoroughly enjoyed the meal. One of the features was the many ways in which citrus fruits were emphasized, in the cocktail, maralade, ices, sauce for the meat and the dessert.

Dillon has a background that includes covering nine United States presidents in 50 years and editing Capper's papers. His present writings, lectures and radio hours are commanding wide attention.

"Log of Life" appears on the society page. Stoltz, in his "Uncle Ed Sez" supplies the humor which is so important in everyday living. His humor is not only genuine, it is also timely.

She covered the London economic conference, saw Russia from the peasant huts and was in Germany during the nazi purge of the Jews. Her column, "A Woman Looks On," will be found on the editorial page. Conover is a brilliant young interpretive writer whose "How Goes the World?" tends to satisfy the increasing desire of the public to grasp more fully the significance of each passing day. It gives perspective to the stirring drama of this fast-changing world. International incidents are graphically portrayed. Art, literature, music and business are covered. The column is non-political. "Walks and Talks with Nature" by Hoyt will appeal to all lovers of nature, both young people and adults.
