TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1925 SOCIETY BIRTHDAY IS INSPIRATION FOR PARTY Miss Eleanor Quill reached another milestone in her life this week and to make the important date the more attractive her sister, Mrs. L. Y. Mattis, planned a fine surprise party. The Doo-little club had planned to meet with Miss Quill and Miss Lucy Ruettgers this evening, but the occasion was slipped up one day to make the surprise complete. Generous use of pink sweet peas lent beauty and fragrance as well as the pretty heralds of spring, peach blossoms. As Miss Quill entered her home the lights were suddenly flashed on and a bevy of young ladies appearing from behind davenport, chairs, etc., shouted "surprise!" leaving no uncertainty in the purpose of the event. A valentine box held great delight and interest and a love message for every one, even if the "skinny" girls drew "fat" pictures and vice versa. Radio music and five hundred claimed attention the remainder of the evening until luncheon was served. The card tables were appointed very prettily for this with pretty floral centerpieces arranged on each. The valentine motif was furthered in the courses. A big birthday cake, decorated with candles and peach blossoms was deftly cut by the honoree and formed a tasty part of the repast. Participating were the Misses Eunice Rainey, Katie Deverell, Rose Poyet, Mary Poyet, Helen Jordon, Elsa Steffens, Lydia Herbel, Katherine and Leona Van Booven, Katherine Huarte, Viola Lensing, Hildegard Brumagin, Martha Schaeffer and the Mermaid Schaeffer and the Mermaid. Honor Departing Sister As a parting courtesy ere she leaves on a six months' visit to Columbus, Ohio. Mrs. Fannie Bruce was complimented with a social afternoon held at the home of Mrs. Ella Clow, yesterday. Mrs. Bruce, whose home was formerly in Columbus, has been very active in Pythian Sisters lodge and it was about 20 of these ladies who gave her the pleasant surprise. She was presented with a pair of very fine black kid gloves as a small token of esteem. The hours were whiled away in chatting and with needlework until quite late, then delicious refreshment was served. There were two guests from Santa Ana, Mrs. Detwiler, mother of Mrs. Helt, one of the members, and Mrs. Underhill, a visitor from the east. MISS CARR TELLS EXPERIENCES IN CHINESE SCHOOL ATALK by Miss Celia Carr, recently chosen counselor of the Standard Bearers, was the outstanding feature of last night's meeting of the society held in the White Temple. Miss Carr, of the high school faculty, was a teacher in China for some time and her experiences in that country were interestingly told. Her comparison of the pursuit of knowledge between the American boy and girl and those of the old Celestial kingdom reflected credit upon the Chinese youths. Their thirst for knowledge is remarkable, according to Miss Carr. Interesting side-light brought out many of the social customs, many of them unwittingly violated by the less conventional American. Miss Carr told of shaking hands with some Chinese dignitaries. HEAR PROGRAM OF PATRIOTISM AT EBELL CLUB AS February contains the birthday anniversary of two of America's most noted patriots, the program committee chose patriotism for the keynote of the very excellent program for Ebell monthly meeting yesterday. It was also an "at home" day, with members of the American Legion Auxiliary W. R. C., D. A. R., G. A. R. Rotary, Kiwanis and Lions clubs and the Red Cross as guests. The feature was a patriotic address by Arthur G. Coons, one of Anaheim's own boys, who is of the faculty of University of California Southern Branch, as associate in the department of economics. Mr. Coons was the last speaker of the afternoon but his address was easily the outstanding one. Beginning his talk he referred to the different forms of Patriotism that had been presented by previous speakers, then launched into a discussion of patriotism, not only in our relation to community state and nation, but presented a listion of the part that America is a world power must play in the affairs of the entire world. Beginning with the Inception of our government prior to the Revolutionary war, he traced step by step the progress of America and the high ideals of right, liberty and justice that she had always stood for. Also how in the industrial world a newer sense of justice is being fostered; the safeguarding of the child; (the citizen of tomorrow) of our duty; the immigrant coming from land not so favored as ours and comitted with the longing and expectation of having a chance to live better. These and many other thought pertaining to the ideals to be wrought out in the future we touched upon by Mr. Coons. Miss Peggy Do Rand, chairman of publicity of the West Coast Theatres, Inc., and herself a member of the C. F. W. C., told of things of her department in edits lishing all over Southern California children's meetings to be given very prettily for this with pretty floral centerpieces arranged on each. The valentine motif was furthered in the courses. A big birthday cake, decorated with candles and peach blossoms was deftly cut by the honoree and formed a tasty part of the repast. Participating were the Muses Enice Rainey, Katie Deverell, Rose Poyet, Mary Poyet, Helen Jordon, Elsa Steffens, Lydia Herbel, Katherine and Leona Van Booven, Katherine Huarte, Viola Lensing, Hildegarde Brumagin, Martha Schaaffler and the Messames Alvin Swanson, Ralph Barnes and Harry Twitchell.

Klassen, daughter and son-in-law of the Chapmans; Miss Lorraine Williams, their granddaughter, all of Ventura, drove down for a brief visit.

MOVIE STAR WILL GET SERIOUS ROLE LOS ANGELES, Feb. 3.—Pretty Lotus Thompson, film and stage actress of Australia, who Sunday buried her "too beautiful" legs with acid because she was tired of having film directors photograph them instead of her face, will soon be working in a serious role for which she yearned for years. It was learned today. Harry Rapf, film executive, visited the residence of the girl, where she is confined and told her that as soon as she is able to walk again he will be glad to cast her in serious drama roles in several pictures to be made in the near future. "I am overcome with joy," Miss Thompson said, when told of Rapf's offer." At last I am to have my chance at real acting." It was also learned today that it had not been necessary for the girl to attempt to disfigure herself to procure a drama role, for one director said he had been searching for the actress for more than a week in order to cast her in a film where she would be required to do real acting instead of just posing her nether extremities. The girl also received a message today from an international star, who said he would be glad to give her a role in a film with him. FARM RELIEF LAWS LEFT TO CONGRESS WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.—President Coolidge today deferred to the judgment of congress in the matter of agricultural relief legislation at this session of congress.

LONESOME ORPHAN Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a lonely girl without father or mother. I am 17 years old and the boy I have gone with for six months is 23. He says he loves me, but I can hardly believe it. My mother and father were both proud and believed in looking neat in their clothes and of course I like to look neat in my clothes. I do not buy many, but I keep what I have looking neat. This boy does not look neat. He has his clothes too large, his trousers are too long and they rest on his slipper tops. His clothes are never pressed and he is really a slouch. He makes $180 a month, so he could dress nicely. I have begged him to roll his pants' legs up just a little but he won't. I can't help feeling just a little ashamed of his clothes when we are in a crowd. He is nice looking except for his clothes and he will not try to look nearer for me. Please tell me what to do. Should I quit him? I go with him because he is so nice and respects me and cares for me as he would a baby. He seems like a father to me. He says he would kill himself before he would hurt my reputation. Please advise me what to do. LONESOME. You are judging the man by his clothes and not by his character and heart. It would be a mistake, however, for you to consider marriage since his habits and dress annoy you so much and he does nothing to improve in the ways which would please you. The second part of your letter (which you requested me not to print) makes me feel very strongly that you should give up all thought of marrying him. He must not expect you to pay the price of his mis-take, which you would do if you married him. It is wrong for him to try to give you the impression that almost all boys get into the scrape he has, because they do not. Probably you would feel better satisfied if you talked this matter over with your physician. Do not hesitate about going to him because he will gladly give you what medial advice he can. INSANE WITH WORRY Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have been married four years only and have two darling babies and am expecting a third. Sometimes I believe I am going insane from worry. I have such poor health I can't do my work and care for the babies. My husband expects it just the same. He seems to think of me as something to put up with. I must stay at home all the time without a soul to say a kind word to me. My husband can't be bothered taking us out once in a while. Please tell me what to do to keep from worrying so much. ALONE X.P. Tell your doctor how much you are worrying and why. If you are not already in the care of a physician, go to one right away. He will be able to talk to your husband better than any one else and perhaps can make him see how hard your life really is and how much you need a little recreation and sympathy. Your husband is selfish and simply does not understand. He certainly needs his eyes opened. LONESOME RED: I am really sorry that I am not able to introduce you and the girl. It is contrary to the policy of this column, however, to serve as a matri-monial agency. FREIGNERS MAY DOWN JAPAN LAND WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.—Ownship of land in Japan by foreign which is proposed in a bill to introduced in the diet at the influence of the government, may be more diplomatic correspondence between the United States and Japan, it was learned today. Under the provisions of the proposed bill, land ownership would be accorded to nations on a reciprocity basis as some American states proclaim Japanese from owning, and some cases from even leasing such a provision would be discriminatory against the United States. Under the bill's provision, it is ordered, all Americans would be freed from owning property which would be discriminatory as there is no federal law prohibiting Japanese from owning property in the country. An amendment is rejected, however, which would only citizens of those states which prohibit Japanese owner-land. The Japanese embassy has no official information concerning the bill but it was said at the embassy that if the bill passed carrying state provision residents of California, Oregon, Washington, Ohio, Kentucky, Minnesota, Missouri, Nevada, Alaska an dthe Disemowning land in Japan, as those states and territories have ten land laws prohibiting oritals from acquiring property. Legislation which would direct Columbia would be barred to eliminate against citizens of some cities and not others would, it is old, create a unique situation in international affairs, and would questionably lead to numerous implicational and disputes over ethnic residents and ownership. BUENA PARK BUENA PARK, Feb. 3. (Spl.)—Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Trapp and daughter, Miss Florence Trapp attended the wedding of Mr. Trapp's niece, Miss Lavina Trapp at Huntington Park, Wednesday evening. G.

Finney opened his store in PAGE THREE HEAVY SALES BY ORANGE PEDDLER Why is the peddler? F. S. Ruggles, field representative of the Mutual Orange Distributors, tried to answer this question today in connection with a discussion of the orange industry. The peddler can't be trusted—Anahelmers only a short time ago got "stung" by apple peddlers, who played the same old trick of putting the nice ones on top and the poor ones just beneath. He may short change you—does occasionally. He sometimes tosses a particularly poor piece of fruit into the street and litters up the pavement. He spits on his fruit to shine it up and is otherwise unsanitary. And he commits other sins, besides paying no taxes except a license. But he is an "important adjunct" to the orange market in the large cities and may take the larger percentage of the fruit from the auction market wholesalers, says Ruggles. The reason he purchases so much fruit is that he is forced to sell it, says Ruggles, even at cost. His loss from decay otherwise would be greater than that of the store retailer. At the outset he puts his price up to "the straining point." He figures that he must make his profit on the first fruit he sells. His bay window is the whole street corner; the fragrance of his fruit, perhaps, can be smelled for blocks; his advertisement is his hawking of the wares, whether he is stationary or moving; and he sells to the money prince as well as to the pauper, if his prices are cheap. He often has several grades of the same fruit to accommodate different sizes of purse. Each morning he appears in the early hours at the market and buys a fresh supply of fruit, which he makes a point to dispose of the same day, if that can be done. His number in the big estates is legion and while five or ten boxes at a time doesn't seem big it mounts high when multiplied by the hun- Mr. and Mrs. A. A.

Collins was removed from the Fullerton hospital to her home, 910 West Broadway yesterday, and is much improved from the critical operation of two weeks ago. Mrs. Collins is able to receive callers for a short period each day and is glad to again be among her home friends.

THREE MEN ATTACK COLLEGE STUDENT EUGENE, Ore., Feb. 3—Kid-naped, gagged, partially drugged and thrown from an auto by three male abductors, a young junior woman at the U. of Oregon was today in a semi-hysterical condition as a result of her experience here last night. The girl said she was walking thru an alley on her way home from the university when she was overpowered by two men who jumped out of the auto, while a third man remained at the wheel. She said she was gagged and a handkerchief was held over her nose. The men drove south to Cottage Grove, and made improper advances toward her but the young co-ed said she fought them off. She was later thrown out of the machine. The kidnaper took $10 from her, the girl said. She described them as being young and well dressed. Police did not reveal her name. "The Charm School" "The Charm Schol," a farce, will be presented in the Garden Grove grammar school Friday at 8:00 p.m., with doors open at 7:30. The cast is a very able one and the play is expected to bring to light considerable unsuspected talent. The funds will benefit the publication of the high school annual. Who controls his appetite controls his destiny. A Class Ad will bring you results. Each morning he appears in the early hours at the market and buys a fresh supply of fruit, which he makes a point to dispose of the same day, if that can be done. His number in the big wives is legion and while five or ten boxes at a time doesn't seem big it mounts high when multiplied by the hundreds. One hundred peddlers taking an average of 4.62 boxes each have purchased a carload of oranges. Fifty purchasing an average of 9.24 boxes each have done the same thing. No, the orange industry doesn't turn up its nose at the peddler. Neither does the apple growing industry in the northwest. The pear, peach and apricot growing industries of California also must consider him. Inclined to appeal to the many, rather than the few, his fruit is likely not to be the best quality, and the next season will probably witness his purchase of perhaps a larger proportion of the California orange crop than ever before because more of the fruit, though marketable, is bitten by frost. O,mj ym:it DURANT DIVIDEND OAKLAND, Feb. 3—A six per cent dividend for approximately 4500 stockholders in the Durant Motor Co. of California was announced here today by Norman De Vaux, vice-president and general manager. What's the difference between a golfer and a boozer? Why, one tees up to drive off with the other—just teas up. GETTING TOO FAT? TRY THIS—REDUCE People who don't grow too fat are the fortunate exception. But if you find the fat accumulating or already cumbersome, you will be wise to follow this suggestion, which is endorsed by thousands of people who know. Ask your druggist for Marmola Prescription Tabliers and follow directions. One dollar is the price the world over. Get them from your own druggist or send price direct to Marmola Co., General Motors Bldg., Detroit, Mich. By doing this you will be able to reduce steadily and easily and pleasantly without starvation diet or tiresome exercise. Start taking them today and get slender. Advertisement.
