In re that ancient and honorable institution tagged Winter by the lexicographers, Deer Creek denizens say: ‘“‘fhere aint any sun! ‘animule.”’ There’s a reason— several of ’em. Bees are buzzing bloomin’ mountain flags; butterflies in irridescent blue, black, and_ yellow flit ' through the golden sunshine of ' mild-day; fat, moist earth worms . ]} wriggle and roll about freshlyturned soil; rose bushes are put. amongst the lilies and i ting forth buds amid a mass of. }! thick new leaves; the gopher ‘is busy in its nefarious tunnel; and the wasps are leaving their hidden castles to go about their hot point business; the young frogs gambol . }! in the irrigation ditches. . . These things convince the Creek. folk that it’s gardening time, desPie legend, tradition, human experience, carnal wisdom, and the calendar. They ‘‘figger’ and “reckon” and “calculate” that all these ereatures of the “lesser order’ haven’t joined in a set-up of no-winter signs unless they have all gone crazy. And they don’t believe the bees, the butterflies, the “fish worms,’ the roses and lilies, the gophers, the wasps, and the frogs have all “gone haywire.”’ : ROAD BUILDING TO CITY POOL A road has been cut around the, base of the hill in front of the Gar. wood home from the city limits of Nevada City to the site of the new swimming pool in Little Deer Creek.

The business men and City Council recently had occasion to pétition the P. G. & E., to grant certain con-. cessions which would enable \a/ worthy mining enterprise to proceed, with its development and operation Without its cooperation . ! the proper operation of the mine . would have been practically impossible thereby thfrowing a considerable number of men out of employment, and preventing a largely increased rayroH as the mine developed. Although the granting of this reG-& E., involves a very considerable amount of time and trouble on their part to work out a solution, and was in the nature of an innovation, the request was granted. This ‘only goes to show that notwithstanding more or less loose publie-opinion, a large public utility corporatiom is quick to heed the needs of this community, of program.
