This explanation of a new state law recently signed by Governor Knight was offered by Ben Liebermann, Orange county veterans service officer. The effect of the new measure (chapter 404 of the 1955 statutes) is to all 89 days to the beginning and 89 days to the end of the World War II and Korea eligibility periods. It provides that a veteran qualifies for benefits if any portion—even one day—of his minimum 90 consecutive days of active duty was on or after Dec. 7, 1941, and prior to Jan. 1, 1947, or on or after June 27, 1950 and Prior to Jan. 31, 1955. The law does not take effect until Sept. 7 — 90 days after the legislative session. However, veterans may apply for reconsideration now and obtain certificates of eligibility as soon as the law becomes effective. Under the new act a person who entered service on the January 30 cutoff date this year would become an eligible Korean veteran if he served 90 days consecutively from then on, or a person discharged on Dec. 7, 1941, becomes an eligible World War II veteran if he ended at least 90 days' continuous service on that date. The eligibility is good for farm or home financing and up to $1000 in state educational assistance to veterans who were born in California or entered military service as state residents, and are otherwise qualified. Chispa Chapter Adjourns for Summer Vacation Side shows and fun booths dec- Chispa Chapter Adjourns for Summer Vacation Side shows and fun booths decorated the Masonic Temple Tuesday night, when Chispa Chapter, Order of the Eastern Star took a circus theme to ring down the curtain for summer vacation.

Among those feted were Vera and Earl Baum, Grace and William Houts, Inez Daniels, Lottie Sheppard, Ottie Nipper and Anna Lee. A special evening of fellowship was enjoyed by all at the Chapter's recent birthday party when twelve tables, one for each month of the year, were decorated in a unique manner by the appointive officers with a decorated cake centering each table. The Chapter will be dark during July and August. Regular programs will begin again on September 13 when vacation reveries will highlight the meeting.

WITH NEW DEVICE FOR TELEPHONES You don't need a special pair of glasses to enjoy a new dimension in telephoning. Pacific Telephone has come up with a remarkable new instrument that enables the user to talk without having to touch or lift the handset. With the new instrument the lady of the house can carry on a telephone conversation while both hands are left free to prepare a meal, wash dishes or sew. All this is accomplished by merely pushing a button at the start of a call. The new set looks pretty much like a conventional telephone—same size and shape, but with a couple of gadgets added for the speakerphone feature. A tiny microphone and three plastic buttons are mounted in the base of the instrument. One button controls the volume of the other party's voice coming over a nearby two by three-inch loudspeaker. The other buttons turn on or off the "hands free" feature so that the telephone may be used in the normal manner if privacy is desired. With the new telephone the whole family can join in on local calls—or family reunions on long distance calls. Invalids or the physically handicapped can bene- Seeds Painted To Preview Color An ingenious grower of flower garden seeds has developed a means of showing garden-makers exactly what color flowers each seed will produce. This enables garden-planners to work out their color schemes in advance and to be sure they will have exactly what they want at blooming time. To prepare them, the seeds are poured into a mixer containing powder of the color that the flowers will be. The powder-combined with a plant food and soil conditioner—dissolves when the seed is planted. The addition of stakes, painted the color of the flowers-to-come, can add a bright note prior to blossom time. SUN AND SHADE Continue to make a series of garden pictures — particularly of spots which need attention. Date the pictures to help you plan remedies later in the gardening year.
