SOCIETY WOMEN'S ACT By Helen Grafton Hineman, Ph. County Federation Board Meeting Is Held With Anaheim Ebell as Hostess Group With county clubwomen assembled Friday in this city, the mid-winter board meeting of Orange County Federation of Women's clubs offered a program whose interest was heightened by the hospitality extended by Anaheim Ebell club entertaining in the clubhouse. Convening at 10:30 o'clock, clubwomen received formal greeting from Mrs. Paul H. Demaree, president of the hostess organization, after which the business session was introduced by Mrs. E. H. Smith of Orange, county federation president. Events of the recent Southern District conclave held in Los Angeles Biltmore, were expertly summarized by Mrs. Smith, Mrs. Albert Launer, Fullerton; Mrs. Ray Dodson, Placentia, and Mrs. Vernon Mohr, Huntington Beach. Perhaps the morning's highlight was the panel discussion of the Connolly bill, planned by Mrs. Leo Friis. Facts and opinions in condensed form, which brought out the various measures eventually absorbed into the bill itself, were brought out by the speakers. These included with Mrs. Friis, Mesdames C. W. Austin, Harold G. Carlin, A. L. Raymond and C. A. Neighbors. A sidelight of interest was the coincidence that all were members of the Orange County Speakers' club. Among points summarized with a finale by Mrs. Friis, was the importance of the measure in approaching post-war conditions; a denial of the utter failure of the League of Nations which by its participation added to the interest, when Mrs. Golem led the clubwomen in singing various Christmas carols, at the same time playing the accompaniment. Mrs. Reuben Day of Costa Mesa, county chairman of Bible Literature, had secured the afternoon speaker, the Rev. Wesley R. Havermale, rector of Church of the Messiah in Santa Ana. After his introduction by Mrs. Bertha D. McCracken, a member of his parish, the Rev. Mr. Havermale gave an informative talk on the development of the English Bible. He discussed among other things some of the material eliminated from the present Bible; the St. Jerome edition, known as the Vulgate Bible, and the present generally accepted King James version. He explained the difference between editions printed on parchment and on vellum and showed some beautifully illuminated pages from his private collection of rare Bibles. Other volumes on display were 16th century Bibles, one printed in the Eskimo tongue, one HERE FOR THE HOLIDAYS Mrs. Richard Glover and her two children have been visiting town this week with friends, having coming south, from Berkeley for the holidays.

Austin, Harold G. Carlin, A. L. Raymond and C. A. Neighbors. A sidelight of interest was the coincidence that all were members of the Orange County Speakers' club. Among points summarized with a finale by Mrs. Friis, was the importance of the measure in approaching post-war conditions; a denial of the utter failure of the League of Nations which by its very existence, had pointed out pitfalls to be avoided; the statement attributed to Dr. Roman that the League made no promise to avoid war, but warned that without such a League, war was inevitable; and the emphasis placed by the recent international conferences, on accent of appeal to peoples rather than to their rulers, in world government. Social phases of the conclave were apparent in the mid-day luncheon served by Anaheim hostess club, Mrs. Frank Kellogg as chairman, was assisted by Mrs. L. E. Middleton and Mrs. Ralph Focht, with other volunteer assistance lent by various members.

Anaheim Gazette, since 1870. On Christmas, as every day, we'll "keep 'em rolling" The heavy, urgent trains of war will roll as usual over our rails through the twenty-four hours of December 25th. S.P. engineers and firemen, conductors, dispatchers, yardmen, brakemen — thousands of men and women of the many score crafts required to operate the West's biggest railroad — will be at their posts of duty. With the "tools" of our trade — locomotives, cars, tracks and signals — we will move the war trains. We will move service men on furlough and members of their families, plus an enormous volume of food and industrial shipments. Yes, the people of our railroad will be hard at work on Christmas. But still this Day will have for us a bright and special meaning — because you folks who live along our lines have made the Christmas Spirit so very real to us.
