"V" For Victory, Theme of Lois Rebekah Lodge Installation; Mrs. Ethel H. Brown, District Deputy, In Charge of Rites "V" for Victory, the most famous symbol in this war, was reflected at the installation of new officers of the Lois Rebekah lodge of Anaheim Friday night in Odd Fellow's hall. The district deputy, Mrs. Ethel H. Brown of Santa Ana, was the installing officer. PATRIOTIC COLORS Patriotic colors were displayed in the formal dress of the participants. Mrs. Brown was gowned in blue chiffon; her assistant deputy marshall, Ada Spencer of Santa Ana, was dressed in bright red and seven staff officers were in white. The following officers were presented to the lodge members for induction: Marie Cannon, junior past noble grand; Vernice Summers, noble grand; Edna Kruse, vice-grand; Berthyle Reisinger, recording secretary; Elsie Borth, financial secretary; Lizzie Nylen, treasurer. APPOINTIVE OFFICERS Appointive officers installed were Violet Howard, warden; Ada Merrill, son of Mr. and Mrs. H. G. Merrill of 707 S.

Presentation of the past noble grand jewel to Mrs. Marie Cannon was made by her sister, Bonnie Miller, who has served as her left supporter during the past year. Rikshaw Rambles “DEAD-END” Shanghai, China. Aug. 22, 1940. Since finding myself nothing but an embarrassment to the “Committee for Returning Refugees to the Shaoshing and Yuyao Countryside” I decided to try to get a military pass through Tinghai. Tinghai is a large island off the coast from Ningpo. It has been occupied and is being held as a military stronghold by the Japanese. My plan was to get to Tinghai and then hire a fishing junk to sail me across to the mainland at night. The young officer who attended to my case looked very neat in his uniform. He spoke good English and he was sweetly polite, but none of them exemplified long overland trip, after we got to Ku-gnao-t'ou, I have decided to take only a small part of my purchases. The stove and the heavier provisions will have to wait. OTHER PASSENGERS Evidently there are going to be some other passengers on the boat too. There were two English women buying tickets while I was there. Just as I went out some Canadian Catholic priests came in to get tickets. The S. S. Hanna is a small China coaster owned by the Carlowitz company. That is a German company, so the boat flies a German flag. Since the Germans and Japanese are more or less chummy we might be able to get along without too much trouble. Miss Lindell Entertains The young people of the White Temple Methodist church were entertained last week after church services at the home of Joyce Lindell, 555 S. Indiana st. Singing and games were enjoyed, followed by light refreshments. WEEK-END IN SNOW The Len Daigles of 521 N. Zeyn st. spent the week-end in San Jacinto visiting Mrs. Daigles' father, J. F. Flour, staying at the Vosburg hotel. They all enjoyed the snow at Idywild. BILTMORE STYLE SHOW Mrs. James Kilduff of the Children's shop of Anaheim is attending this week "Market Week" in Los Angeles. Eastern lines are being shown and an evening style show was given Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. Mrs. Doris Tacker, employed at the local shop, accompanied Mrs. Kilduff at these shows. AT PALM SPRINGS Mrs. C. H. Atwell of 536 S. Indiana st. is spending a few days at Palm Springs. She left Anaheim Friday. PASSES CADET EXAM Mrs. Ethel G. Badger of 119 Ohio st. received word from his son, Joe Grayson Badger, stationed at Wichita Falls, Tex., that he has passed the exam for flying cadet and is awaiting instruction. He is a graduate of Anaheim high school and enlisted in the Army Air corps Jan. 6. SEETHING CRATERS Blowing up the Jap's volcanoes. How our filers could bomb out Nippon's seething craters, release their terrific forces and bring devastation to the Jap's islands, told by Harold O. Whitnall, university professor of geology in a remarkable illustrated article in The American Weekly, the magazine distributed with next week's LOS ANGELES EXAMINER.-Adv. get a military pass through Tinghai. Tinghai is a large island off the coast from Ningpo. It has been occupied and is being held as a military stronghold by the Japanese. My plan was to get to Tinghai and then hire a fishing junk to sail me across to the mainland at night. The young officer who attended to my case looked very neat in his uniform. He spoke good English and he was sweetly polite, but none of these accomplishments helped me. NO WAY "Is there no possible way?" I pleaded. "So sorry—it is difficult — no possible way—all around here are military operations," and he pointed out a large area on the map around Ningpo. "Can you suggest any other way to get to Ningpo?" I asked him. "Oh, no! Ningpo is very dangerous! It is inside the area of operations. We cannot give passes now." HOW LONG? "How long will it be before you can issue passes?" "I cannot say." "Soon?" "Not soon." So I picked up my hat. We bowed sorrowfully to each other, and I left. "HOPE IN HANNA" Shanghai, China, Aug. 23, 1940. This morning I saw a small notice in the paper saying that the S. S. Hanna is going down the coast to Ku-gnao-t'ou. That is the small port south of the blockade. I'm going to try for that and then hitch-hike back to Ningpo. It will be a long, hard journey, but if I get home eventually it will be worth it. When I got my ticket this afternoon the company told me that I would have to take all the risks. I was willing. However, with that some other passengers on the boat too. There were two English women buying tickets while I was there. Just as I went out some Canadian Catholic priests came in to get tickets. The S. S. Hanna is a small China coaster owned by the Carlowitz company. That is a German company, so the boat flies a German flag. Since the Germans and Japanese are more or less chummy we might be able to get along without too much trouble. The captain of the boat is German. All the rest of the crew are Chinese. I've been on one China coaster small and older than the Hanna—and these two are about the bottom of the list! (Continued Next Week) Fullerton Forum Newsman Fullerton Public forum last night heard the second in a series of discussions, this time by James R. Young, author and noted Far East correspondent who lectured on "Ringside Seats in the Asia Arena." Young, who ended his Far East career with 61 days of solitary confinement in a Japanese prison, told of his experiences working in terror-ridden Shanghai. Two fellow correspondents never came out alive.

In all of Los Angeles' smart shops the emphasis is on tailored skirts and jackets. All one needs is thin or normal hips and a good carriage. Suits will suit that person. SWEATER GIRLS Long being the working and school girl's best friend, the sweater has become so popular that girls have been named "Sweater Girls" and soon a movie will be released with that title. The latest word is, the longer the better. A typical and popular style is a 23-inch wool zephyr cardigan in all colors. With a variety of colors and harmonizing skirts and jackets, any American woman can be well-groomed, well-dressed and attractive. S'NO FUN Few backgrounds set you off as vividly as snow. For better or for worse, it emphasizes you. So it is important for you to learn how to look cheerfully rosy instead of red and raw. From January's Good Housekeeping come these six points important to remember in snowy week-ends around a roaring fire and su heated rooms after the fun is over. 6.
