NEVADA CITY NUGCFT Nevada City Nugget . , 305 Broad Street — Telephone 36 A Legal Newspaper, as defined by statute. Printed and Published at Nevada City, California H. M. LEETE HARLEY M. LEETE, Jr. Own er and Publisher Editor Published Semi-Weeekly, Monday and Thursday at Nevada City, California, and entered as matter of the second class in‘the postoffice at Nevada City under Act of Congress, March 3, S JSD. SUBSCRIPTION RATES One year (in advance) : One month THE CALIFORNIA NEWSPAPER CENTENNIAL _ At Monterey on August 15, newspaper publishers and editors of California will celebrate the 100th anniversary of an event of great historical significance —. the founding of California’s first newspaper. As they published the first issue of their little weekly . Robert Semple and Walter Colton must have had little notion of the great train of events they were setting in motion. Had they been able to grasp the full significance of their act, they surely would have been proud. Naturally, the California nswspaper of today bears little external resemblance to the first issue of the Monterey ‘‘Californian’. But the publishers of 1946 are true spiritual heirs . to the pioneer editors of 1946. They have inherited the rug_ ged integrity of those pioneers, plus their unshakable faith in the future of California.—Contributed.

JUST WONDERIN’ I wonder what is really wrong With this strange world of ours; It still produces luscious fruit, Tall trees and radiant flowers; The skies of spring are softly blue, The winds of summer bland, But dire confusion seems to reign In every land. A few years ago, we frequently met serene, complacent people, who smilingly assured us that “‘all’s well with the laation, for in the world at large, there seemed to be many things that needed fixing, but we shrank from distudbing the optimistic outlook of our naive friends, so it was our habit to smile back at them and keep our dark suspicions to ourselves. The phrase, “‘all’s well with the world,’ fell into disuse when the storm of war swept the world and when the war was over and our dreams began crashing down upon us, it was still in abeyance but have you noticed how often a startling bit of news or an oratorical paragraph begins with these words “never before in the history of the world,” and isn’t it true that never before in the history of the world, were there so many new and amazing events, discoveries and inventions broucht to the attention of the world’s distraught millions. What is wrong with the world of today? _ I wonder if anybody knows? Perhaps the general state of disillusionment is increased by the fact that “never before in the history of the world,”’ were earths inhabitants so well informed as to prevailing conditions both good and bad. ] wonder if some of the bad conditions are often exaggerated and if in magnifying the evil which lives in the hearts of men, we do not overlook the good. The war closed suddenly for the great army of war correspondents columnsits an war minded purveyors of sensationalism. Like Othello, they found their occupation gone, and so it is that in striving to retain their popularity with the public, they often went out of their way in order to report the tragedies of life, the bizarre and the soul disturbing. Of course ‘their accounts of life as it is today are in a measure true, the world is topsy-turvy and the future is veiled in threatening clouds, but still 1 wish that our news casters would looke about them and bring to their radio and press reports something of the. good, constructive and heartening. There is a germ of good in almost every heart, progressive steps are even now being taken by men of science and true leaders in domestic and foreign affairs. Let’s hear more about these steps, a few of them mingled with accounts of wars, intolerances and strife would furnish us reason to go on hoping that in due season, peace may really come to the strife torn nations and give us surcease of misunderstanding and relief from our long winter of discontent.—A.
