SOCIETY NEWS EBELL WIVES BRILLIANTLY ENTERTAIN HUSBANDS AT DINNER MONDAY NIGHT Though it was planned as an evening of relaxation and gayety there was an extra bit of happiness at the Ebell dinner and program Monday evening as speaker and guests alike referred to the liberation of Manilla while the flags of the Allied nations and our own red, white and blue, that so colorfully decorated the banquet tables and stage, seemed to take on an added bit of brilliance and drama. Without plan the annual "husband's night" turned into a victory dinner and a forward sounding note was struck at the conclusion of Robert Richard Gros' address when, in an impromptu manner, he asked that Americans not let down in effort in the stirring months to come. The speaker, a professor at Stanford University who has made interviewing of noted Americans a hobby, gave his interested audience many fascinating sidelights on the personalities of such men and women as Father Divine, Irvin S. Cobb, John Marquand, Madame Chaing Kai-Shek, Juliana of The Netherlands, Mrs. Evelyn Walsh McLean, Thomas Dewey, Franklin Roosevelt, Wendell Willkie, and Will Rogers. At various times he has interviewed all of these people, some of them many times and has many autographed pictures and personal letters from them, copies of which he passed around through the audience. He saw Madam Chiang Kai-Shek as the true voice of China, President Roosevelt as the warmest personality he had ever encountered. Wendell Willkie as a Mrs. Ben Kaulbars and Mrs. John Molt and the decorations chairmen: Mrs. Herbert Messerschmitt, Mrs. Frank Kellogg and Mrs. Holly Markle. Barbara Horn And Shirley Pannier Honored at Party Two little playmates whose birthdays come close together were honored last Saturday afternoon when Mrs. Harry I. Horn of 558 South Ohio street, entertained for her ten-year-old daughter, Barbara and her close friend Shirley Pannier, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Milton Pannier of 559 South Ohio street. Barbara's birthday was on Jan. 23 while Shirley's natal anniversary was yesterday, Feb. 7. Covers were laid for six little girls at the pretty birthday luncheon table that was decorated in pink and white. Place cards were comic valentines and each guest was presented with a valentine book out of which she could make her own valentines. Climax of the two course luncheon came when each of the guests of honor were presented with a beautiful pink and white birthday cake that said, "Happy Birthday Shirley" and "Happy Birthday, Barbara." Following the luncheon, Mrs. Horn accompanied her young guests to the matinee at the Fox theater after which they enjoyed a play, during the late afternoon hours at the city park. Those enjoying the afternoon were Barbara and Shirley, Marlene Stewart, Dorothy Jean Melton-Lancaster Rites Solemnized At Church Service In the presence of fifty close friends and relatives Miss Bonnie Virginia Melton, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Sherman Melton or 251 Emily street, plighted her troth to Master Sergeant James Franklin Lancaster, U.S.M.C. last Sunday at the White Temple Methodist church. Rev. Thomas L Burden officiated at the double ring ceremony. Preceding the service Miss Edith Brown of Anaheim sang, "All ways" and "O Promise Me" accompanied at the organ by Mrs Olive Kempin who also played the traditional wedding marches. The bride was smartly gowned in a green tailored suit with which she wore a corsage of orchids. Her sister, Mrs. Edyth Sawyer of Anaheim acted as matron of honor and wore a fushia suit with black accessories and a corsage of white gardenias. The two bridesmaids, also sisters, were Mrs. Rubie Nix and Mrs. Bonnie Foster. They were attractive afternoon gowns of fuchsia and blue and gardenia corsages. Best man was M/Sgt. L. C Lewis of the El Toro Marine base. Following the ceremony a reception was held after which the bride and bridegroom left on a brief honeymoon. They will establish their new home in this vicinity as Sgt. Lancaster is now stationed at the El Toro Marine base. Women's Group To Hear Polio Talk At Ebell Clubhouse Reservations for the county board meeting of the Women's Federated clubs, that will be held at the Anaheim Ebell clubhouse tomorrow, Friday, closed Wednes- He saw Madam Chiang Kai-shek as the true voice of China, President Roosevelt as the warmest personality he had ever encountered, Wendell Willkie as a man of great courage and true inspiration, Thomas Dewey as an extremely capable administrator who lacked personal warmth, and Will Rogers as "the grandest American I ever knew." In Willkie he found the "symbol of the voice of conscience of America" while Father Divine was a mixture of egotistical pride and practical political thinking. Mrs. John Wilson, president, presided graciously from the speaker's table and called upon a few of the husband guests to give brief life histories which proved humorous and thoughtful by turn. Those responding were "Tex" Middleton, Ben Kaulbars, Ernest Ganahl and Lt. Commdr. Ldewelyn Wilson. Guests were warmly greeted at the door by Mrs. Wilson, Mrs. William Webb, Mrs. Mae Neighbors, Mrs. C. E. Harbeson, Mrs. F. A. Yungbluth and Mrs. Ernest Ganahl, who formed the receiving line. The affair was formally opened by the guests singing "America" and the "Doxology" under the direction of M. A. Gauer with Dr. Howard Tews accompanying at the piano. Following the greeting by Mrs. Wilson a clever toast to "our husbands" was proposed by Mrs. C. E. Harbeson. A trio of Mexican Troubadours furnished music for the dinner hour. Warm thanks were given by the president to the committees who so capably managed the dinner, including dinner chairmen; Mrs. C. H. Kersten, Mrs. Emma Karlen, SEAL the Surface with Perma Plastic Seal, now on sale at 261 East Center. Post-Nuptial Shower Given For Mrs. Geo. Mitchell Spring flowers and gayety formed a pleasant background for the post-nuptial shower that honored Mrs. George Mitchell of Buena Park last Friday night when Mrs. R. P. Humphries of Buena Park entertained in her honor. Mrs. Mitchell, a bride of the holiday season, was the former Miss Ruth Bastady, and has many friends in Anaheim as she was formerly employed here. The first part of the evening was devoted to playing "Cootie" and following the game attractive prizes were awarded Mrs. Franklin Rayburn who held high score and Miss Barabara Bastady who was consoled. The bride was then presented with numerous charming gifts for her new home and the evening was concluded with the serving of refreshments. Those enjoying the evening besides the hostess and the honoree were Miss Connie Blose, Miss Jo Mitchell, Miss Barbara Bastady and Mesdames Earl Travers, Emmanual Bastady, Blair Salmon, Robert Cole, Robert Nelson, Robert Etchandy, Leo Maley and Edwin Bastady. Those unable to be present but sending gifts were Mrs. Joseph Koons of Santa Ana and Mrs. J. C. Humphries of Buena Park.
