TI wonder how many of you have
ever thought seriously about your,

you realized that you are living in
one of the most famous of California counties! Do you know that Sierra county’ has given to the State of
California many famous and capable
men? Do you know that Sierra county can claim one of the early governors of the state? Do you know
that an attornty general of the state

‘cause I am. more familiar with that
part of our state’s history.
You can rest assured that Sierra
county has produced leaders in other
fields of endeavor.
I have asked these questions because I want you to realize that
Sierra county has held a place of its
own in this state. It was one of the
pearest settled; one of the wealthiest; and without doubt,
‘most beautiful.
You are part of this county, her
history is your history, her glories

"What You Buoy With
WAR BOUNDS
Free the Seas
Before we win the final battle with
Hitler’s Nazis all navy men are
agreed we must win the battle of
the Atlantic; that is to free the sea
lanes of the German U-boats.
A year ago we were building
54 cruisers and nearly 200 destroyers or just about enough for a two
ocean navy.
Now we have come to realize that
this war is to the finish,
take all,’’ and our Government is
building a five ocean navy.
That is why we are being asked
to increase our subscriptions for
