The meeting broke up at 2 p. m. and was a large suc- rnittee on Arrangements; H. L. Rosenberg, Chainnan cess. Fred staged a debate between Dave Woodhead and Bush Bookstaver that was a knockout. Dave argued as a Pessimist that the market w'as due for a bust and that the wholesalers had better make one large bunch o'f hay in the next two weeks. Bush came back at him as an Optomist pointing out that the traffic was fine for all wholesalers 'and ihat as long as they could s,lip over an occasional cargo at fifty cents over the market they had no ki'ck coming. It was a draw.
Prof. David Roth, memory expert had the floor for about a half hour and the bunch hated to see him quit. Roth nam.ed every man around the table, with no more coaching than hearing the introductions at the start of the meeting-
Mr. J. Andrews, Vice President of the Citizens National Bank, Los Angeles, made a very ,interesting talk on market and general conditions

THEY'RE TEACHING THE KIDS HOME BEAUTIFYING IN CALIFORNIA
By Jack Dionne
Not long age I piloted a cou'ple of youthful Texas lumbermen around the city of Los Angeles, showing the'm some of the marvelous new home additions that are found everywhere
They had come looking for building iDEAS to take home with them, and they exhausted their complimentary adjectives during the first couple of hours, and then "just looked" at the perfect riot of architectura,l plans being incorporated into homes
Four or five hundred small homes, every one a gem
We have ready for prompt shipment from our Bay Point, Cal., plent, a conciderable quantity of

in appearance, beauty and attractiveness, no two alike, grouped together in a single district-and many, many such districts.
But the thing that impressecl them most-and myself xl5e-y,'25 a window in a real estate window in Hollywood. That window caught ,our eye compellingly.
Ranged side by side in tha"t window t'here were thirteen rlode.ls of homes, done in clay, in minature, each model being probably ten or twelve inches square.
Not only the home itself was modeled, but the yard, the shrubbery, the walks, etc. Most o,f the m,odels showed the 'homes on hill sides, adding to the,attractiveness. All were in colors, and ,a,ll in different .colors.
And in front of each model lay a card showing the, detailed floor plan of that particular home.
There was a complete diversity of styles, colors, shapes and sizes in these modeled homes.
We gazed, admired-{rankly and outspokenly. Had we seen no farther we l.vouJd have said that so,me combined architect-sculptor had made them.
And then we noticed a neat sign back of them wh,ich read :
"These ,rtrodel homes and plans were ntade by the Home Planning and Decorating Class of The Hollywood High School."
And there was a pictrrre of the 'class, ancl they were mostly girls.
And a young lurnbennan from San Antonio turned to mc in wide amazement and said:
"Good Lord ! What chance have WE to keep up with these folks in building ideas, when they tea,ch it to their kids in school ?"
An Echo Of The February Sixth Golf Tournament
No names mentioned in this.
_ Nasty rumors of loss of memory when ,counting.strokes has brought out the following.
One very close foursome on the fifteenth green; one said to the next high man, "How many."
The reply was, a confident-"Eight."
This brought out "Eigh,t H,ell, I watched you in the bunker and counted nine."
He must have been a sash and door man, for Jhe reply was "THEY WERE NOT STROKES, I WAS KILLING A SNAKE.''
