There may be something exhilirating in the spectacle of two
or three regiments of soldiers on a parade ground executing
the command: “Mark Time.” Usually they mark time preparatory to going.some place. But there is nothing more discouraging than when an entire community marks time, or
‘worse, executes an about face and looks backward over the
years at the glorious moments in the community's past.
Most Mother Lode towns until recently have marked time
and about faced. Exceptional men and women, who wished to
get somewhere in this mundane sphere moved away into the
growing, hustling, progressive parts of the world, where
youth has higher values, and hard work and sound thinking
bring greater rewards.
_ But now the tide turns again, the Lure of Gold, that first
created the Mother Lode cities, then ebbed, and left high and
is returned to its native hills.
Witness today’s story on the front page of this newspaper.
Not in many a long year has there been such a demand for
housing facilities in Nevada county. Yesterday morning, for
instance, one Nevada City real estate dealer had nine calls for
houses. Men are coming here with families. They find nothing
to shelter them, though they beg with money in their hands.
Failing to find suitable houses to rent or buy on terms,
scores of these home. seekers are buying or renting a bit ot
land and putting up cabins until they can do better. Along the
road to the Murchie mine are eight new cabins, and these
must obtain their water from old wells. Out in Willow Valley
one enterprising new comer (he has dnly been here six years)
has built and purchased seven houses, and they are all occupied. His rent roll he regards as permanent, for, he says, if any
thing untoward should happen to the mines, he has all the
makings of a first class summer resort.
) At the'city’s outskirts, is another man who looks ahead.
He is constantly building cabins and houses, but work as hard
as he will, he is never able to supply all those who ask for
apartments, cabins or houses.
* What the town needs is a new residence _ park backed by
jights, sewers, streets, water facilities etc. We'll gamble a dollar to a doughnut that any man who _ will spend $1 00,000 in
such an enterprise, will find more gold than nine out of ten
men who put the same amount into a mine. And that’s not
saying that mining ivnestments made under rpoper advice and
with canny caution are not good.

live and survey the state through a telescope, : watching the
payrolls, the car loadings, the crops, a ad the flow of tourist
traffic, gauging and measuring all the factors that favor or
hinder an investment of this kind, they. have decided that a
Nevada City Bank of America building is a» good investment.
By the same token a home built in this city or near it isa
good investment:
There are easily five hundred more people in Nevada City
than last year at this time. The increase in water service by the
city, and in electric installations by the P. G. & E., make this
a modest estimate of the increased population. The town
bulges with people crowded into quarters that are too small.
We have marked time. We have gazed sentimentally on
the past and its great achievements. Let us hear the commend: “FORWARD—MARCH! and-do it.

JANES SUBMITS PLAN
FOR CLEAN SWIM POOL
Addison M, Janes, asked by the
city council to submit a plan-for the
operation of the municipal swimming pool has submitted two plans.
One provides for its
general tax and the other by charging a small admission. The city
counci] has not yet decided which
plan it will: adopt.
Janes prefaces his communication by expressing the hope that
swimming pool and park will be the
eenter of an ever
munity center for recreation.
He recommend that life guards
be selected from older Boy Scouts
or students who passed the Red
Cross Life Saving tests; that a concession booth be established to defray part of the expenses; that the
tank be cleaned every day and given a thorough cleaning at least
twice a month; that the pool be
opened from 10 a. m. until 8 p. m.
The total cost for the summer
months, according to Jane will be
approximately $230. per month during the summer.

The roses wait for the dawnlight,
The river yearns for the sea,
And the birds are singing gaily
Of nests in the wildwood tree;
For the roses, the dawnlight’s splendor,
For the river, the curling foam,
For the birds, wee nests in the wildwood,
For the human heart, a Home.
