Ethiopia had very few munition makers, with the present lamentable results. Yet the fact that war is folly is true. Italy’s Ethiopian campaign to date has cost nearly half a billion dollars, With that much money, the Italian government could have purSouth America, and Mexico to settle colonists upon, than they will find in Ethiopia. A plan of that kind however, does not suit a dictator, because the colonists become citizens of a foreign nation. By the number emigrating the dictator’s power wanes. Individual Italian families have settled in the United States for perhaps 75 years. in considerable numbers. Most of them have given up allegiance to Italy and have become citizens of this country. It would be easy and cheap as ‘compared to costly wars to subsidize colonists individually and settle them in other countries, where populations are less crowded; though the United States now closes its.doors to all but a very few immigrants. But dictators art notoriously self centered. Their stupidities are ds colossal as their self esteem. We note with uneasiness the large number of foreign born congress. men, especially in the House of. Representatives. Recent revelations concerning immigration and the deportation of undesirable aliens, inborn congressmen is directed to opening again the doors to hordes of immigrants, dnd to opposing and obstructing the deportation of crimaliens. Most of these foreign born representatives come from the large cities, where huge sections of the population are of the same nativity, as these foreign born gressmen. Patently they have not been assimilated. Their sympathies and their interests still lie with the countries and the peoples of their origin. Unfortunately there is nothing much to be done about it, except to guard against such a contingency in our own congressional district. conAta meeting of business men the other evening we heard a young man of sixty odd years of age, beg to be excused from a committee’ appointJane Martin, professor -of psychology in Stanford University, was retired because she had reached the age of 65. So Dr. Martin, naturally very active, set about studying conditions of old age. At 78 years of age she published her book on ‘‘Salvaging Old Age.’ This was followed in 1933 by “Sweeping the Cob‘-webs’’, At 85 now, Dr. Martin drives her own car, enjoys airplane flights, as well as the ‘honors which come from having made herself a national authority on old age problems.

WPA WORK IN NEVADA COUNTY IS REVIEWED prising results of six months operation of the Works Progress Administration program in Nevada County were apparent_today as District Director Gene Kenyon reported ex~pednitures of $66,507 and performance of 147,467 hours of labor since the program’ was started by WPA employes, all of them County residents. Approximately 80 per cent of total expednitures have gone for labor and a large share of materials and supplfes have been purchased locally, Kenyon said in emphasizing that the WPA program has given business a realimpetus while providing useful employment for: persons who otherwise would have been idle and dependent upon relief “Improvement of miles of road; construction, alteration and repair. of a number of public buildings; necessary irrigation and sewer work and improvement of public grounds have provided the basis for operation of a majority of projects in Nevada County,’’ said Kenyon. “We have accomplished our first objective of providing jobs for all eligible for WPA employment. At the same time we have been able to do work which was necessary and will prove of lasting value and wil: be reflected in community life for years to come.” To date, WPA expenditures for road and street. dannrovettents have totaled $23,795 with 63,5428 hours worked. These improvements have ineluded excavation, clearing, stump removal, installation of culverts, drainage, wall canstruction, egrading, graveling and oiling on projects including . Banner Mountalu, Washington, Garden Bar, Edwards Cross§ng-Granitedille, Maryland-Allison and Red Dog Roads, Nevada City streets and various roads in Suvervisorial District Four. Building and construction provements have called for expenditure’ of $23,732 with 39,520 hours worked and have included work upon Grass Valley Memorial Park, Nevada City Park, Rough and Ready Cemetery and Truckee Ice Rink, Additionally, groun@s of Nevada City high school were improved at a cost of $4815 with 9993 hours worked and Columbus school in Grass Valley received similar improvements at a cost of $1852 with 9883 hours worked. : The WPA spent $11,524 and used 25,059 hours of labor in sewer conimFOREST SERVICE LETS AIRPLANE CONTRACTS The Forest Service announces that contracts for airplane patral for the national forests of California have been let for the season of 1936 to the Duck Air Service, Oakland for the C&lifornia forests; Schneider Air Service, Fresno for the central Sierra forests, and to Dan T. Moran, Monrovia for jthe southern (jGalifornia forests. Last year forest officers acting as observers spent 151 hours in the air scouting the spread of forest fires and directing the ground forces in the control of large fires. Experiments are being carried on by the Forest Service in the use of airplanes for actual fire combat by the use of chemical bombs and water directed on small fires to retard the spread until ground fire fighting crews arrive. The most striking development is that of a new ultra short wave radio of extremely light weight for use on airplanes, In recent tests, foresters on the ground talked with observers in the air at an altitude of several thousand feet.

CALIFORNIA FARM PRODUCTS AID GOOD HEALTH (By RALPH H. TAYLOR) In grandmother’s day, it was customary to say, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away!” In more modern times, the health properties of scores of farm products have been heralded far and wife in spectacular ‘and highly effective commodity advertising programs. ; Sun-Maid Raisin Growers, some ten years ago, caught public fancy with the peremptory inquiry “Have you had your iron today?” The California prune (ask any exsoldier) is as regular as_ reveille. Soldiers called them ‘native sons;” mothers and doctors extol theif. virtures as a natural *regulartor of the digestive tract. Equally famous, the orange juice eye-opener whets the appetite, serves.as a systematic alkalizer and saves youngsters many trips to the dentist, with grapefruit juice in the same category. More recently, California lemon growers boosted sales—and helped combat winter illnesses—with their quick@acting ad: “Got a cold? Doetors say, Hot Lemonade!” And today, virtually every branch of California aggteulture is adver: tising-the health value of farm products as well as their food value— with “Eat Your Way to Health” campaign providing popular and palatable substitutes for many of the brown pills and evil-tasting liquids of the old time medicine case. Although exaggerated ‘claims may have been made in some instances for various products, thete is sound and scientific support for the contention that fully 75 per cent of the illnesses which now require meditcal treatment could be eliminated by the simple expedient of eating healthful products of the soil—in well-balanced proportion! Nearly every farm product. grown in California, for example, has definite curative, preventive, or \ reserve strength properties. Excellent iron ‘content, which is becoming increasingly important in modern day diet, is found in lima beans, English garden peas, «beet tops, broccoli leaves, parsley, spinach, turnip tops and, generally speaking, in all green colored vege. Why Indeed completed Red Cross first aid courses given », during , the past several weeks by Walter Carlstruction and _ irrigation improvement. Work done has included construction of a wood flume and improvement ‘of ditch banks for the Nevada tlrrigation District jnvolving an outlay of $3581 and 10,494 hours of labor, rebuilding of 2000 feet of wood flume for the same. sponsor at a cost of $2493 with 4530 hours of labor performed. Relaying of sewers in Nevada City called for expenditures of $4492 with 7606 hours of labor involved. Nevada in common with other counties of the Second WPA District has benefitted by operation of two district-wide projects. One of these is the fruit and nut tree acreage survey which $6068 has been spent and/9257 hours worked to date. he other is a community sanitation project sponsored by the United States Deuartment of Health for installation of improved latrines on which .expenditures have been $30,583 and 57,712 hours of labor have been performed.

MOON’ IS SENIOR FARCE THURSDAY "Tis a ‘‘three . porneved moon’’ that will shine brightly for those. who attend the annual Senior farce this year to be presented Thursday evening at the Nevada Teatre, when the members: of a well-chosen cast produce a three-act play by that particular name. And, varying from the usual: program presented in other years, the Class of 1936 will present a curtain raiser of the one-act variety entitled “The Wedding.” This added attraction not only is an advantage to the audience, but enables more of the class members to display their dramatic ability upon the’ stage. “Three Cornered Moon’’ was one of the bright spots of the 1932-33 theatrical season on Broadway. The; peculiar humor and innate flippancy of the Rimplegar family, whom this story concerns, should be a laughprovoker for the most serious of audiences. The cast for this production is as follows: Mrs. Rimplegar, Margaret Wyant; Elizabeth, Marjorie Masterson; Kitty, Fern McClure; Jenny, Bonnie Flindt; Ke: neth, Arthur Elliott; Douglas, -Winton Whitley; Ed. Walter Warnecke; Donald, Bob Small; Dr. Stevens, Dick Stevens. The cast chosen for the one-act play preceding the main performance will include the following: Bridegroom, Mervin Doolittle; bride, Marian Mohr; best man, Morris Roberts; Miss Grayson, Flossie Angove; Mrs. Teasdale, Cecilia Woods; Mr. Grayson, Peter Orzalli. The farce will begin at 8:00 p. m, and tickets for reserved seats will be available at Foley’s confectionery on Tuesday morning. tables. ~ Aside from the fact that they taste good and serve many direct health purposes, California fruits — fully mature, ripened and well colored— have an important psychological . value, stimulating digestive secre. tions through their effect on the eye. Hence the statement: ‘‘We eat with our eyes!”’ Ice cream (perhaps the most delightful of farm medicines) is the ideal diet for fevered stomachs— usually the first item on the hospital menu. And dairy credast as a wholé are. justly famous for their vitamin content, with the dairymen = claiming that milk is the most complete and most healthful of all foods. Cheese, without doubt, is headed for greater recognition and far greater consumption in the years to come; it is one of the finest of all concentrated . foods, taking its place with chocolate as emergency ration diet for aviators and others requiring food value'in a minimum of bulk. “Meat and potatoes’”’ are the staples of ‘‘emipire builders,’ building muscle and tissue for hard work and celebrated as a energy and heat. For strength, without meat, peas and beans rank at the top of the muscle builders. fruits, especially peaches, are high in fruit sugar ‘content which is more easily digestible than cane sugar. If on the other hand, you need a diet . almost entirely free of sugar, but strong in energy, almonds are the recommended diet. Walnuts, almonds and other nuts are all rich in vegetable form oils. And to round out the farm haaith picture, California orange juice has} recently been discovered to be an important resistanice agent to the dread streptoccocei germ. “Call the farmer—not the doctor!’’? may well become the new slogan of healthful living, although doctors, ing habits and other factors, will undoubtedly continue to be a vital necessity to wayward mankind.

Tibert, were lodged in the county jail here last night. The arrests resulted from their action in bringing Arthur Tibert’s little daughter to this city. Allegedly Tibert obtained a court order in Los Angeles giving him cusce tody of his little daughter, who was a with his estranged wife in Reno. While in Reno yesterday he saw the little girl ip charge of a stranger on, the street. he rushed up and embraced his .daughter. The stranger struck him. His mother, in the car saw the encounter, according to Tibert’s story, and went to the rescue and, he states, she was also beaten. In. the. meantime, Tibert had placed his little daughter with his sister, Alberta, the-car and she sped Arrest of all three followed. Mrs. Tibert to@ay is under care of a physician. She states that she is expectorating blood as the result of a heavy blow in the chest, where the in Reno stranger struck her: Mrs. Tibert and her little granddaughter are now staying in the National Hotel. A charge of kidnapping it is reported will be placed against Tibert and his sister. RALPH BAKER SERIOUSLY HURT IN CAR CRASH A collision between two cars at Hills Plat at midnight Jast night sent Ralph Baker, Grass Valley contractor to Jones Memorial hospital with injuries which are considered critical. The collision occurred between his car and one in which Mrs. Agnes Evans and her husband were riding. Evans was bruised and Mrs. Evans received several cuts. None of their injuries were serious. Capt. Joe Blake of the state traffic patrol is investigating the accident. BOTTLE EXCHANGE FOR DAIRYMEN ESTABLISHED A bottle exchange for milk producers and dealers has-been. approved by the dairymen of western Nevada county, with headquarters at Gallino’s in Hills Flat. Milk distributors will leave bottles _there which do not belong to them and get their own bottles. Dairymen have agreed to pool their interests in other matters affecting their business.
