Approaching February Wedding Plans Are Revealed to Party Guests When Mother and Daughter Entertain Announcement of the date of Sunday, February 21 for the wedding of Miss Judith Lillibridge and William ("Bill") Dodge was highight of a delightful party at which Mrs. C. W. Lillibridge and her prospective bride daughter entertained Friday night in their home, 549 South Janss street. Guests found the home as gay as a valentine with its flower apointments, and suggesting Valentine day too were the tally cards which designed the seating arrangement for the appropriate game of hearts. After all had found their places, Miss Lillibridge distributed the best valentine of all — pretty red rose corsage clusters for all the party guests. Each was tied with ribbons from which dangled saucy little red hearts, and these hearts carried the message, "Judith and Bill: February 21." Miss Lillibridge revealed that the wedding is to take place in Capillo de San Antonia, and that the Rev. Thomas Holmes Walker of San Clemente, former pastor of First Presbyterian church, is to officiate. Miss Lillibridge was like a valentine herself, for with the pale green wool frock which she wore, she had a cluster of Sweetheart orchids, sent for the occasion by her fiance. She also received a fragrant gardenia corsage from Miss Ruth Bastian, whose studies at Berkeley prevented her from being present at the announcement party. When the excitement of the announcement had somewhat subsided, guests gave their attention to hearts play, in which Miss Lorraine Aspelin made the prize winning score, with consolation gift going to Mrs. Robert Fowler. As finale to the evening, card tables were rearranged for the serving "A suit to suit your suitor in the spring" might well be the theme song of a soldier's sweetheart when she chooses this smart beige herringbone wool with its tricky buttoned pocket flaps, for her spring wardrobe.

Wisconsin Guests Arrive For Late Winter Visit Arriving this week from New Richmond, Wisc., were Mrs. Mary Berg and her niece, Mrs. Margaret Lyngaas, who will make an extended visit in the home of Mrs. Berg's daughter and grandson, Mrs. Holm Holmson and Arthur Holmson, 702 South Lemon street. The visitors were unable to come to the coast in December, when as Anaheim friends will remember, Dr. Holm Holmson was the victim of a tragic accident when he was struck by an automobile in Los Angeles on Christmas Eve. Instead they waited until California weather was more settled, and Mrs. Berg, who is in her 80's, is having the pleasant experience of picking her breakfast oranges from the tree instead of wading through five feet of snow, as was the case when she left New Richmond. While here she will visit also with her granddaughter, Mrs. Dagmar Crane of this city, and her grandson, C. F. Holmson of Fullerton. The third son of the Holmson home, Sgt. Edgard Holmson is now with the U. S. Army at Fort Deming, New Mexc. He enlisted shortly after graduation from UCLA, and was stationed first at Santa Ana Army Air Base. He was shortly transferred to the New Mexico station where he is in the finance department.

This year there is an important new reason why every kite-flyer must follow the safety rules for flying kites: Power lines are vital to America's war production because they carry essential electricity to war factories...and carelessly handled kites can cause damage to power lines. Be sure to observe the following rules: 1. Fly your kite in an open field, away from power lines. 2. Never use wire, tinsel or metallic string. 3. Be sure the cord is perfectly dry. 4. If your kite catches in a power line, let go. Don't pull! Phone the company owning the line and a lineman will come to get your kite for you. Eldison Ebell Members Enjoy Vivid Account Of “Island Paradise” Hawaii, Paradise of the Pacific, where “May Day is Lei Day,” was painted in a glowing word picture for Ebell Home and Garden section members and their guests Monday, afternoon, when Mrs. Charlyn Peterson provided a delightful program. “Hawaiian Homes and Gardens —Then and Now” was the theme developed by the speaker, who contrasted the serenity and beauty of the days before Pearl Harbor, with the chaotic present under strict military regime. She told of the gorgeous color picture which the islands present, with their wealth of tropical bloom, their soaring shower trees like mammoth boquets, the fragrant ginger, gardenias, orchids and all the manifold blossoms that are woven into the leis so universally worn by the wealthiest resident and the humblest worker alike. She described the lei sellers, who gather (in peace times) with their garlands whenever a ship arrives from a distant port, so that newcomers are always welcomed by flowers as well as the plaintive strains of music. She interlarded her talk with some of the craming poems of Don Blanding, who first conceived the idea of “Lei Day” which is so enthusiastically celebrated each May first, by everyone in Hawaii. After telling something of the great cane and pineapple plantations and the hospitality of the Island people, Mrs. Peterson sketched in briefly some of her experiences at the time of the surprise attack on Honolulu. Ebell Board Members Asked to Serve Saturday Night in Santa Ana As Gracious Hostesses at USO Party There will be a vertiable flurry of cake-baking Saturday morning in Anaheim home kitchens. Ebell club’s famous cooks will sift a measure and mix various ingredients which, when baked and topped with creamy icing, will provide an array of luscious home-made cakes to delight soldier guests, far from home and “mother’s cake.” Box Supper Plans Are Enjoyed By Sorority Members Gay valentine wrappings which suggested the delicious contents marked the supper boxes which many Beta Sigma Phi members bore with them Tuesday night, when they shared box supper in the home of Miss Beulah Hineman, 804 North Sabina street. Miss Hineman, assisted by her mother, Mrs. Fred S. Hineman, received guests in a home made attractive with camellias and other bright blossoms of the season. Another sorority mother, Mrs. Katherine Campbell, was present too, and served as auctioneer when the supper boxes were disposed of. The plan was for half of the members to provide the boxes, each with food for two, and the other half to buy them, with the money to go to the general sorority fund. Preceding the business meeting conducted by President Josephine Karrick was the presentation of a handsome lace tablecloth to Mrs. Robert Schweinfest (Laura Dean), latest chapter bride. Several future meetings will be devoted to Red Cross work, and to knitting squares to help complete the afghan being made by Girl Scouts of Benjamin Franklin school. The reason for this wholesale baking lies in the fact that Ebell board members are to be hostesses Saturday night at the U.SO party in Santa Ana USO headquarters, when men of nearby military headquarters will dawn with the community’s most charming girls. Mrs. Cortez Hoskins, EB president, will head the list of hostesses who include also M. dames Paul H. Demaree, E. Way Griggs, L. M. Pickel, C. O. Lew W. P. Hall, M. A. Gauer, D. Franks and Paul Davidson. Light refreshments are always served at these parties, but because the “Boys” long ago showed their preference for home-made cakes, Ebell members set playafoot to provide them in law profusion for this occasion. When Mrs. Hoskins asked for cake donations at the month’s general EB meeting, response was quick and spontaneous. Mrs. C. O. Lee and Mrs. L. M. Pickel agreed to remind donors of the date when the gifts were due, and M. Pickel will receive the cakes any hour Saturday, at her house 550 South Palm street. Among those who will provide the choice home-made confection are Mesdames H. E. Remilla Ray Reafsnyder, Robert Kenneth Charles Hunt, Eli T. Bradley, F. Yungbluth, John H. Boege, W.

She was introduced as guest speaker by Mrs. Charles T. Frantz, section leader. Hibiscus blossoms, so characteristic of the Islands, brightened the tea table where Mrs. Cortez Hoskins, president of general Ebell, was asked to preside at the concluding tea hour of the afternoon. Next Monday afternoon, Ebell clubhouse will be given over to Bible section members who will entertain with a 1:30 o'clock dessert course followed by Mrs. A. P. M.

No Food Shortage In Middle West, States Homecomer Concluding a three months' visit in Oklahoma and Iowa, Mrs. Katie Peterson has returned to her home, 318 South Bush street. When she left in November, she went directly to El Reno, Okla., where her daughter and two sons reside. They are Mrs. Charles Schuldt, Vern and Clarence Peterson. Mrs. Peterson had planned her trip to have Thanksgiving in Clarion, Iowa, with her sister, Mrs. A. S. Chapman, and while there visited also with her brother, John T. Jensen, and then with another brother, P. T. Jensen of Clear Lake, Iowa. She especially enjoyed the heavy snowfall of Thanksgiving eve, with continued snow during her stay in Iowa. She also found interest in the bumper corn crop — the largest she could remember seeing—and in the fat cattle and pigs of the Iowa countryside, including her birthplace and childhood home of Jewell. She said no food shortages of any kind were experienced during her stay. She returned to Oklahoma to spend the Christmas holiday season with her child. Native Daughter of Anaheim Attains Highest Navy Rank (Continued from page 1) up." She was twenty-nine at the time. Previously she had graduated from Fullerton High School (1907), not far from Anaheim, Orange County, California, where she was born September 20, 1888. After attending Stanford University at Palo Alto she graduated from the California School of Nursing, Los Angeles, in June, 1914, where she remained in charge of Surgery until November, 1917. Since that time Capt. Dauser's life has been a continuing adventure of service with the fleet and at base hospitals. She was first assigned to the Naval Base Hospital No. 3 as Chief Nurse when it was mobilized in December, 1917. So Philadelphia became her home, but only for six months. When she moved she didn't stop until Edinburgh, Scotland, where No. 3 went to replace a British Naval Hospital. When the hospital was disbanded after the Armistice its personnel crossed to Brest, France, Preceding the business meeting conducted by President Josephine Karrick was the presentation of a handsome lace tablecloth to Mrs. Robert Schweinfest (Laura Dean), latest chapter bride. Several future meetings will be devoted to Red Cross work, and to knitting squares to help complete the afghan being made by Girl Scouts of Benjamin Franklin school. Miss Margaret Allen provided the program feature by giving a most interesting summary and discussion of "Desert War" by Russell Hill. The next meeting of the group will be March 9 with Miss Mary Fine. The second February meeting date was cancelled because many of the members will be busy on the rationing registration. Present at this week's affair in addition to the hostess, Miss Hineman and the two guests, Mrs. Hineman and Mrs. Campbell, were Josephine Karrick, Ethel Campbell, Laura Dean Schweinfest, Mildred Mauerhan, Mary Fine, Margaret Allen, Dorothy Weatherly, Marjorie Pibel, Dorothea Schulz, Ruth Hall and Bessie Renner. Stork Theme Adds Much Interest To Evening Party Joining in hostess duties, Mrs. Eloise Groover, Mrs. Em Groover and Mrs. Madore Groover entertained in the lattice home on Philadelphia street, compliment to Mrs. Marjorie Taylor. Guests joined in playing an amusing game of "Pig" in which prizes were secured by Mrs. Margaret Pugh and Mrs. Rose Harp But the chief event of the party was when the hostesses produced a baby carriage, garlanded with pink and white ribbons and seeningly propelled by the amuse stork on the handle. In the marriage was a collection of packages for Mrs. Taylor, who discovered the contents to be a variety of dainty articles for the layette is preparing. This dominant theme appears again at the refreshment halls with which the pleasant event was concluded. For with the cream and coffee served by a hostess trio was a delicious c embellished with a white stair and tiny blue baby shoes.

She also found interest in the bumper corn crop — the largest she could remember seeing—and in the fat cattle and pigs of the Iowa countryside, including her birthplace and childhood home of Jewell. She said no food shortages of any kind were experienced during her stay. She returned to Oklahoma to spend the Christmas holiday season with her children and enjoy a succession of big family reunions. So Philadelphia became her home, but only for six months. When she moved she didn’t stop until Edinburgh, Scotland, where No. 3 went to replace a British Naval Hospital. When the hospital was disbanded after the Armistice its personnel crossed to Brest, France, for temporary duty. In another six months Capt. Dauser was back in California as Chief Nurse of the San Diego Naval Hospital. But after a short time she entered a period of peripatetic service. Her assignments took her from one Naval Hospital to another until she had served several tours of duty at all of them on both sides of the Pacific as well as on the far-traveling Hospital Ship of the Pacific fleet. It was while she was aboard the U.S.S. Relief that she made her most extensive cruise in the Southwest Pacific, touching Samoa, Australia, New Zealand. Then in 1922 there was a slight variation in her work. She was assigned to the U.S.S. Argonne, then beginning passenger service. A year later she boarded the U.S.S. Henderson, not knowing what was in store for her. She was to make an Alaskan cruise with President Harding. When he became ill at San Francisco she was transferred from the ship to his hotel and was at the President’s bedside when he died. Today, Capt. Dauser is the only woman “four-striper” in the Navy. Along with her rank and title, she has earned the coveted “Well done!” of the Navy, its highest approbation.
