e WANTED—A NAME
In the old unregenerate days before the crash of 1929,
and years before FDR and NRA, the condition which exists .
in Nevada county today would have been called a BOOM. °
But too many distressing things have transpired in the .
meantime. The name “BOOM” is in sad disrepute. New!
words have come into being and a whole flock of popular
remedies for the Depression, which are known chiefly by their
initials. Calling things by their initials of course originated in
the World War. Becbably SOS older even than the World
War, is the granddaddy of all the abbreviated nomenclature to
which the Roosevelt administration has given birth. The NRA,
the fairhaired boy of this newly born host, of course, leads
all the rest with the AAA hot footing close behind.
But what word shall we use instead of BOOM? The
word “BOOM” smacks too much of inflation, kiting realty
values,: pop-eyed excitement, the rush and hurry of multitudes
setting off toward the maelstrom of tremendous speculation,
where thousands lose their little all and scores make huge fortunes overnight.
Nevada County has had enough of booms and that deadly recession, when the shouting dies away and the high waters
flow back off the mountains into the. cities and valleys
deaving the thriving metropoli of the Sierras, nothing but derelict enterprises, flotsam and jetsam, wreckage and spoilage
strewn hither and yon, and memories of the glories that were.
But there is a condition in Nevada County, a condition
‘of growing prosperity, that needs a word to describe. A thous:
and more people, it is conservatively estimated, areliving here
than were here six months ago. Six hundred more men are
employed in the mines than were employed six months ago.
_ Amillion (and probably more) dollars have undoubtedly been added to the capital investment in Nevada County in
the last six months. The monthly payroll has jumped from
around $150,0000 to $250,000 in the last six months. :
Practically every business site in Grass Valley and Nevada City is occupied by firms which are reaching out success. .
fully for more business. Homes are building and expanding,

Travelinz Light
I travel light at Christmas time—
I drop my heavy load .
And just go singing happily
Adown the sun-lit road;
And e¥ery soul I chance to meet,
A “Howdy,” has from me, :
No inhibitions hedge me round
At Christmas time, you see. .
I'm friendly now with every one—
Meat eater, Elk and Jew,
I do believe if we should meet,
I'd risk a word with you;
With scorn upon my brow,
Our differences of race and faith E
Seem not to matter now.
I throw aside at Christmas time,
And find it sweét indeed, .
To sally forth without the load
That weights me thru the year,
And chirp a “Merry Christmas, Bo,”
Amid the Yule-tide cheer.
Now this year when . cast aside
That mass of superstition,
And noted its moth-eaten parts,
_ Its size and composition,
. vowed a vow that from this time,
Td leave it where it lay, .
And free from-its corroding blight,
I'd walk the sun-lit way.
] have no need to hide away
Within dark walls of pride;
What matter race and birth and creed ~ .
To one who walks—outside > ee
And so I. *left it where it lay, :
A sordid, out-worn sight,
And from this time, I'm telling you,
I’m going to travel light.

are being remodeled and modernized. The two cities of the
county are as full of people as a sausage skin is full of meat.
The word “BOOM” is taboo. There has rarely been a
boom that was not followed’ by disaster. And this growth‘ of
the mining industry in Nevada County has none of the earmarks of an old fashioned pre-Depression boom. It is rather
a steady infiltration of investment money and of people.
What shall we call this fortunate condition in Nevada
County? If it must be a phrase rather than a woord, then let
us adopt some initials, not already appropriated by the administration in Washington, three or four letters that shall stand
for a new, and we devotedly hope a permanent, era of prosperity in Nevada County.
