Junior Ebell Club Scores Success With Spring Party Successful from every standpoint of hospitality, entertainment and financial returns was the annual benefit party given Saturday afternoon by Junior Ebell club, to celebrate the advent of spring. Miss Katherine McCullah, club president, and her party chairman, Mrs. Warren Schutz, with their co-workers, received more than 250 guests who enjoyed bridge play as a secondary feature to the interesting spring style revue presented with Miss Natalie Street as commentator. The display of up-to-the minute modes was made possible through cooperation of the Children's Shop, Epstein's, Jack Corn's Mary Millerick's and the Lauretta Dress Shoppe. Costumes were modeled on the auditorium stage, with the fashion parade continuing through the main room to the lounge so that every guest might survey the pretty outfits. Small potted ivy plants, which centered refreshment tables, also formed bridge prizes for the players, but there were numerous additional prizes awarded through generosity of local merchants. Among those donating desirable gifts were E. C. Kendrick, Weber Book Store, Heying Pharmacy, Smith-Reafsnyder Furniture store, Helen's Flower shop, McCoy Drug store, Victor Loly, Arnold Drug company, Moon's Gift shop, LaDonna Beauty salon, SQR store, Blue Bird Drapery shop, O.

Las Amigas Enjoy Fine Summary Of Chekhov Novel Members of Las Amigas Study club shared the pleasure Tuesday afternoon of hearing an extremely interesting condensation of Anton Chekhov's "Three Sisters" given by Mrs. J. Shailer Arnold. The meeting was with Mrs. Charles Schweinfest, 124 North Janss street, and several guests enjoyed the occasion with "The Friends." Mrs. Arnold's summary of the book was so complete that all its points of characterization, drama and description were exemplified for the members who found it of special interest just now with attention centered on Russia. Mrs. Schweinfest made her home doubly attractive by the use of many flowers, and the application of a St. Patrick theme to all details of the tea hour. Mrs. Harry Hall was invited to preside at the tea table with its flickering green tapers and arrangement of white blossoms and trailing greenery. Even the dainty little cakes of the refreshment course bore green shamrocks on their white icing. The next meeting of Las Amigas will be on April 20.

NOSE DROPS On "Douglas Hour" Sunday's night's broadcast of "The Douglas Hour" over Radio KGER, Long Beach, was of more than ordinary interest in two Anaheim homes, those of Mr. and Mrs. Philip Hall on North Philadelphia street, and of the Albert M. Cranstons on South Rose street. For guest soloist on the program was Miss Doris Gamble, daughter of the Hall home and vocal pupil of Mr. Cranston. Miss Gamble's principal number was "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling," as a St. Patrick's day feature. The beautiful dramatic soprano voice which won her leading roles in Union high school and Fullerton junior college operettas and musical programs, proved quite as well adapted for radio programs as for concertizing. The quality and range of her voice and her rich and rounded tones were well illustrated, and with such success that she was engaged for two successive noonday programs this week (yesterday and today) for the Douglas employees during their lunch hour.

YUNGBLUTH 145 West Center Street Anaheim, Cali IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO Extracts from files of The Gazette Issued Half a Century and a Quarter ago. These files contain the only Authentic History in Print of the Daily Doings of the Citizens of Anaheim and Orange County in the Days of the Pioneers. 25 Years Ago March 21, 1918 Clocks all over the country will be set ahead one hour, beginning March 31, under the so-called daylight saving bill, passed by the house Saturday, 252 to 40. The bill provides that at 2 o'clock p.m. on the last Sunday in March each year, clocks all over the country which affect any operations of the federal government or railroads shall be set ahead one hour. At 2 o'clock p.m. on the last Sunday in October of each year, they are to be retarded one hour. All business relating in any way to the government will be conducted on the time set. Further inducement for its use by every one is given in designating the times in the various zones as United States Standard Central time etc. There will be Eastern, Central, Mountain, Pacific and Alaskan time. If there are any who doubt the efficiency of a well built dike, all they have to do is to go and take a look at the work put in by the citizens of Richfield and Yorba along the west bank of the river in their immediate section. The dike cost about $5000 and amply withstood the recent flood waters. There was a large stream and it went full tide against this bank and the bank still stands. It was the means of keeping the flood waters in the natural channel. Close observers who have looked over the situation say that had it not been for this dike the entire stream would have cut through and swept to the north of this city. With the many paved roads 50 Years Ago March 23, 1893 The heaviest rainstorm of the season began at midnight Sunday night and continued almost uninterruptedly until Monday night at midnight. Mr. Dickel's gauge registered 2.62 inches for the storm and 15.96 for the season. Last year to date we had only 5.71 inches. Had another inch of rain fallen the damage to railroad tracks would have been disastrous. Both the Southern Pacific and the Santa Fe bridges over the Santa Ana river were found to be in a shaky condition yesterday, and it was impossible to move trains over them until repairs were made. Another inch of rain would probably have washed them away. During Monday the rain descended in sheets causing the water in the river to flow over the levee and cut out a channel this side of the Olive bridge, carrying away the approach. After sweeping through the new channel which is just this side of the bridge, the water returned to the river bed. The water flowed under the bridge in torrents. There was plenty of water in the sandwash, and parties in from Placentia had to come down to the sandwash bridge to get over. Some of the roads are washed out in places notably the new road across the sandwash west of town, and some barley has been lodged. Yesterday the southbound San Diego express train on the Santa Fe was detained here, on account of the shaky conditions of the big bridge over the Santa Ana river, and was HOLY LAND, and will show one of the ancient potteries and pyrrus manuscripts resulting from the expedition. His talk will be given in the parish house, beginning at 7:45 o'clock, and all ends of the church are assured a cordial welcome.

Instead of building his faith material things, man should make his foundation the Cross of Christ."
