MERRIAM COMMENTS ON RECENT MINING EDITION New York, June 4, 1930. Mr. A. A. Willoughby, Nevada City Nugget, Nevada City, Calif. Dear Mr. Willoughby: It does seem unnecessary for me to tell you how much I enjoyed your last mining issue. I also want to congratulate you upo nthe enlargement of your paper ,and the installation of your new machinery, equipment, etc. You have certainly made a great success of your enterprise there in Nevada City, but I do not particularly commend you for that. That merely shows that you are a good} business man, and you have deserved that success, by sticking on the job, What I think deserves especial commendation has been your patriotic and civic attitude manifested in your upbuilding of the community. To rehearse what you have done for your section is a mere waste of words. The power of the press is mighty in any community ,but all too often it is merely devoted toward the “grinding of the owner’s axe,’’ or the bitter criticism of those in authority, and actually destroy-., ing the good work of those wh are trying to upbuild the community. Your work, on the contrary, has! been of the constructive nature, and ley on June 6 under the auspices of the Grass Valley P. T.

On Juné-7 the clinic was held in the Washington sthool in Nevada City with the -Women’s -Civic Improvement Club sponsoring, and Mrs. R. J. Bennets, Mrs. sleeve, Mrs. Walter Mobley and Miss Elizabeth James @ssisting. The attendance here was 22,%an excellent average, which is over 50 per cent of the total children expected to enter school in the: fall. Dr. Mayman and Miss Davis were in Truckee, Floriston and Hobart Mills on the 9, 10, and 11, respectively and the total number of children examined there were approximately 50. The purpose of these clinics is to examine the children for defects, such as bad teeth, tonsils, malnutrition or for defective lungs. The parents are informed of the defects and have the summer vacation-in which to correct them. Miss Davis 1s leaving this week for Los Angeles where she will take a Summer course at the University of Southern California. Her brother, H. A. Davis, makes his home in Los Angeles and she will enjoy a visit with him at the same time. Miss Davis has proved a very popular public nurse and it is hoped that she will return to Nevada County next year. : i 0. U MINING CONTRACTORS ARE George.
