SOCIETY WOMEN'S ACADEMY Ebell Section Speaker Discusses Trends In Post-War Homes and Furnishings Pre-fabricated homes or those entirely of dry-wall construction; architectural design completely at variance with present accepted standards; plastic furnishings and spun glass draperies, were some of the revolutionary ideas suggested to Ebell Home and Garden section Monday afternoon when Edgar Harrison Wileman was presented as guest speaker by Mrs. G. E. Frantz. As the head of the home advisory bureau of Barker Brothers, Los Angeles, Mr. Wileman could speak with authority on "Wartime Trends in Home Furnishing," and at the same time provide a fascinating afternoon for Ebell members gathered in the clubhouse lounge. His ideas as to home architecture of the future with the service area of the home, its kitchen and even the garage at the front of the house, may have seemed startling at first, but arguments in favor of the design were entirely logical, as the audience agreed. These arguments including convenience for the housewife in step and time saving; such matters as grocery and milk deliveries; accessibility of the garage in all weathers, and conservation of valuable rear garden space. Quite as interesting too were his ideas on dry-wall construction with its excellent insulation and the avoidance of deterioration, dampness and improper insulation of stucco and plaster. Touching lightly upon priorities that make present building almost impossible, the speaker suggested that the present is an ideal time for program are other anticipated features. Tonight the local club will tend the meeting in Fullerton high school auditorium where city's Public Forum in present Vanya Oakes, noted womannalist. Members are to meet o'clock with Dr. Hazel N. Lemon street at Broadway, go over to Fullerton in a book hear Miss Oakes talk on "Next in the Far East?" They ticipate hearing details of her 000-mile trip through the Czech Republic to Russia, including Mad Dutch East Indies, Thibet, Bulgaria Thailand, China and other places so much a matter of present interest. Home Department Will Meet Tomorrow Mrs. A. A. Fischer, chairwoman Anaheim Home department day reminded department members that they were to bring their own table service as well covered dish for the post-luncheon to be held tomorrow the home of Mrs. C. A. Zimmerman, 805 South Los Angeles street. The program to be held o'clock in the morning, will feature the cleaning, care and operation of electrical equipment, demonstrated by Miss Fran Liles, home demonstration for the county. Mrs. Fischer suggested that members have portable electrical equipment needing attention, might do to bring it with them for convenience and advice. QUITE AS INTERESTING TO WERE HIS IDEAS ON DRY-WALL CONSTRUCTION WITH ITS EXCELLENT INSULATION AND THE AVOIDANCE OF DETERioration, DAMPNESS AND IMPROPER INSULATION OF STUCCO AND PLASTER. TOUCHING LIGHTLY UPON PRIORITIES THAT MAKE PRESENT BUILDING ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE, THE SPEAKER SUGGED THAT THE PRESENT IS AN IDEAL TIME FOR SECURING ADVANTAGE OUS LOTS UPON WHICH TO BUILD AS SOON AS PRIORITIES ARE LIFTED AND PRESENT-DAY PLANNING IS GIVEN OPPORTUNITY TO BEcome REALITY. "There are no priorities on paint and wallpaper," he pointed out, explaining how much can be done in brightening present day homes and giving them the color that seems to keynote the entire home situation. From this it was but a step to the draperies, upholstery materials and floor coverings of new fabrics which will eventually become household words as familiar, he declared, as rayon and nylon have now become. His display of chintzes and new printed cottons now available illustrated his plea for more color in the home, and showed designs suitable to various wall and furniture treatments. They included also failles, damasks and rich materials such as matelasse and the new fixtures and weaves of the always dependable mohair. Shortage of coiled springs in present-day furniture has resulted, he explained, in careful designs which suit the chair or couch to the human frame, rather than encouraging the body to form its own place in the once necessary springs. Other home furnishing hints included the matter of lighting, with a table lamp for each seating unit in a room, and pictures, always to be hung at the eye level with no cords or wires visible. During an interval of questions, Mr. Wileman reminded his audience that he can be heard over Radio KHJ each Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoon at 3:15 o'clock. His presence Monday in Anaheim was made possible by recording the talk for the air. In advance of the program, a hostess committee headed by Mrs. A. P. M. Brown served a refreshing tea menu to section members and guests. THEY COULD AFFORD A LITTLE EXTRA... CAN'T YOU? The Fourth War Loan starts today. Your Government wants you to support this loan by buying at least one extra $100 Bond. You may not find it easy to spare an extra $100.

Galvin, in which the bride was given in marriage by her bridegroom’s mother, Mrs. Walter Revell. Miss Redman chose for the occasion, a modish suit in powder blue with which she wore black hat, gloves and slippers.

Starting Date Set For Ration Tokens According to OPA release from Washington, February 27 is the date when two billion ration tokens will be in flowing into circulation throughout the nation, thereby bringing several changes in food rationing. Starting Date Set For Ration Tokens According to OPA release from Washington, February 27 is the date when two billion ration tokens will be in flowing into circulation throughout the nation, thereby bringing several changes in food rationing. The tokens, slightly smaller than a dime, will be worth one point each and will be given by retailers in change for ration stamps. There will be red tokens for meat and blue for processed foods. Ration stamps — each with a 10-point value regardless of the number appearing on the coupon — will be validated on a horizontal or across-the-book basis instead of on a vertical or up and down basis as currently. Three meats-fat stamps worth a total of 30 points will become valid every two weeks, with the first two series or six stamps remaining valid until May 20. This date of validation is slightly greater than for processed foods at present and slightly less than for meats-fats. OPA estimates that with the use of tokens Ration Book Four will last about two years. At least three books would be required during this period without tokens. The tokens will have no expiration date. However, tokens will be given as change only in connection with purchases. Elaborate precautions against counterfeiting are involved in the design of the tokens and the manufacturing process. These are being kept a secret. LAW VIOLATIONS ADD TO CITY FUNDS Of exactly 101 cases appearing in December before City Judge Frank Tausch, the majority, or 66 offenders were in violation of rules of the motor vehicle department, while the remaining 35 were in violation of city ordinances. Eighty-two of the offenders paid fines imposed, adding a total of $1,944 to the city funds. Thirteen were remanded to the county jail and half a dozen minors to juvenile court.

All sorts of uncomplimentary epithets are used to designate the bugler, but nobody has yet been able to provide a satisfactory substitute for a bugle although recordings are used at some permanent bases. Aboard ship the men fall in at the order of "Pipe muster." On land the bugler sounds "Assembly!" But no matter where the bugle is used thousands must be bought out of the money we are investing in War Bonds. Back the attack with an extra $100 Bond in the 3rd War Loan. U.S. Treasury Department
