SOCIETY NEWS EBELL CLUB STARTS YEAR OF WORK WITH LUNCHEON AND INTERESTING SPEAKER Anaheim's Ebell club opened its fall season Monday with Mrs. A. E. Schumacher presiding over her first meeting with poise and charm. Over 250 were present at this inaugural luncheon meeting of the fall season, which highlighted Mrs. Edna Stearns Dayton as special speaker of the afternoon. Mrs. Dayton's talk was indicative of the club's aims for the following term. Opening her speech, Mrs. Dayton declared "We as a country are in a war of ideas and it is just as important that we win this war as it was to win the war in the past; bigness is not enough in a battle of ideas—greatness is needed too and that greatness is certain, if you, as one of the teeming millions, work on the construction gang and not with the wrecking crew." Mrs. Dayton combined scholarly aptitude with a knowledge of the dramatic as she transported her listeners from one scene to another, presenting her speech with a sure clarity. Mrs. Dayton emphasized America's need to search for rightness in the occupation and rehabilitation of war-torn countries, and in dealing with her own interior problems. Declaring America's power and industrial wealth, Mrs. Dayton pointed out the need for America to build a good and secure peace, if only to protect herself from future aggressors as America will be the first nation to be attacked in case of another war. Concluding her talk, she praised '25 Class Reunion Sunday, Oct. 7 at School Cafeteria Members of the 1925 graduating class of the Anaheim union high school are looking forward to the reunion of the members to be held on Sunday, Oct. 7, at the high school cafeteria, from 12 noon until 5 o'clock in the evening.
