ELKS CLUB IS INVADED BY LIONESSES
The big dining room at the Elks' Clubhouse looked like a mountain meadow in May this afternoon, when approximately 300 ladies of Lions attending the annual district convention in Santa Ana were entertained at dinner by the Anaheim Lions' Club, White and yellow daisies adorned the tables, and the head gear and gowns of the fair visitors were bright or brighter.
After the repast the ladies went to the Orange Show.
Only a few of the local Lions ventured to be present. Those who attended did so because of the mandate of the club. Ernest Ganahl was one, presiding and introducing the speaker. L. B. Weber, head of the program of music and readings and speeches, was another. C. C. Lamb was Weber's assistant. Doctors Hollingaworth and Cole and Arthur Coons were others who helped.
The features of the program—well they were all features. H. L. Potter, well known local baritone, accompanied by Carl Robles sang as delightfully as usual; Mrs. Harry Dyer, formerly of Anaheim, now of Long Beach, recited several original poems, including "Try Anaheim," written for the occasion; "Baby," and "You Little Bit of a Boy," the High school orchestra played, led by Bert Steelhead; there was community singing, led by Carl Rholes; Mrs. Hanson, wife of the president of the Santa Ana Lions' Club spoke in behalf of the lady hosts of the delegates; Mrs. Hummell, Santa Ana soprano sang; Carl Robles sang and Mr. Sharpless gave a violin solo.

(I. N. S. Staff Correspondent)
CHICAGO, May 25—Excitement, sudden and unexpected, was created in the LaFollette railroad conference here when eight men, prominent in Chicago business, invaded the meeting and bitterly denounced the premises upon which the parley was called.
The eight were J. T. Pirie, of Carson, Pierie, Scott and Company; T. H. Eddy, vice president of Marshall Field and Company; J. H. Madison, vice president of Montgomery Ward and Company; A. A. Sprague, chairman board of directors Sprague Warner and Company; T. W. Ellis, vice president Armour and Company; J. Harry Seiz, president Selz, Schwabacher Walt; J. P. Haynes, traffic director Chicago Association of Commerce.
There was considerable disturbance when the demands were presented by Haynes, as spokesman. He asked Senator LaFollette, chairman pro tem, if he might read a statement. LaFollette replied that that was a privilege to be granted only to the duly invited attendants in executive session and that one of these guests doubtlessly would be glad to present them for the delegation.
"Then I'll just violate that rule," shouted Haynes and began reading his paper.
LaFollette interrupted with the observation that the meeting was not formally organized as yet and that Haynes was wasting time. Thereupon Haynes sat down and quiet was restored.
They charged:
1. That the conference seeks to substitute for existing government agencies some other and less efficient agency.
2. That the conference seeks to undermine public confidence in the Interstate Commerce Commission.
3. That Senator LaFollette was shown by his statements in congress in 1919 to be a dreamer, or mistaken in his calculations.
4. That agitation, uncertainties and business disturbance would follow the adjustments the Wisconsin senator favors.
5. That too much discrimination in the regulation of railroad capital already is practiced, without the need of adding more.
6. That there is nothing very seriously wrong with the transportation system.

The car stands against a purple and gold curtain as a background. On the floor besides the usual canvass are Navajo and other rugs. Reed furniture, with comfortable chairs, make the space as inviting as it is attractive.
