When these lmitations are considered, in various relations to community life in Nevada City, it is apparent that much of the progress and the cost of carrying on devolves upon a comparative few of its citizens, who volunteer ,through civic pride to do those things, which . in larger cities are.done more eas-. ily and at lesc cost relatively to in-. dividual donors.
