Northern California is experiencing the greatest building boom it has had since the early 1920’s with practically. every city, town and hamlet resounding to the tune of hammer and saw on homes, business houses, public buildings and schools. While . accurate figures have not been completed, it is estimated that construction for the first quarter of 1937 in Northern California has been in ex“ess of $3,500,000. Home consruction has been the major item in most cities, including Sacramento where nearly a million dollars worth of one-family dwellings have been started to date this year.

The books are housed at the Camptonville Union Grammar school building wherein two large cases were built, one donated by Mr. J. E. Pauly and the other by S. F. Price. The present capacity for the books is almost filled with more donations yet to come in. Those donating books up to this time include the late Mrs. Anna Ramm Marsh, of San Francisco, Mrs. Rachael M. Labadie, Lola B. Cleveland. A system of indexing and giving out the books will soon be initiated so that it will ‘be conducted along the same lines as other free libraries, This has been organized by the Woman’s Club for the benefit of this section and. it is hoped that the people will take advantage and make use of it.

JOHN CHARLES THOMAS Amnouncement comes from Sacramento that the closing musical event of the season will be the one long to be remembered when on the night of Tuesday, April 20, . John Charles Thomas, member of the Metropolitan Opera Association and one of the outstanding and popular Na-artists, will present a concert,in the Sacramento Memoriat-~ Auditorium under . the sponsorship of the Apollo Male Chorus of that city. The concert will also mark the debut of the Apollo Male Chorus which was formed last fall under the direction of David Unruh, former director of the MacNeill Club of the capital city. The club will assist Mr. Thomas in two numbers with the great baritone as the soloist in addition to giving several numbers during the intermission period. One of the numbers selected will be the ever popular “Home on the Range”’ which was made a national favorite by “Thomas. ‘Mr. Thomas, considered by musical critics from coast to coast as one of the greatest baritones produced in America, was scheduled to give a concert about a year and a half ago, in Sacramento before a capacity audience, but two hours prior to his appearance, he was rushed to the Sutter hospital of that city with a sudden illness which confined him to that instiution for several weeks and caused cancellation of his -Pacific Coast tour under advice of his physicians. He has since expressed a desire to sing for Sacramento Valley folk and personally invited the new Apollo Club to sing with him, an which is seldom that any chorus outside of the great opera chorus of the ‘Metropolitan has the distinction being permitted to do. This will be the only appearance of Mr. Thomas in this section of the state, only one other California appearance being booked in a metropolitan area, and it is the desire of the sponsors that every person in the valley who loves. his great voice— and who is there that does not— will have-an opportunity of taking the entire family at a popular price. Therefore the Apollo Club has set the lowest price scale for which this artist has ever sumg in America and it is, expected that the capacity of the auditorium will be taxed. The seat sale opened Monday, March 29, and the ‘best seats available at the prices designated will be mailed in order of the requests addressed to’ Wilis Bass who will be in charge of the sale, care of Sherman, Clay & Co., 914 K Street, Sacramento. The request should be accompanied by a check and a self-addressed envelope for the return of the tickets. Nevada county residents are urged to make their reservations as early as possible to avoid disappointment. rows $2.20, next 10 rows $1.65, last 5 rows $1.10.
