PAGE TWO NEVADA CITY NUGGET MONDAY, JUNE 16,-1941. * > 4 Nevada City Nugget 305 Broad Street. Phone 36. — A Legal Newspaper, as defined by statute. Printed and Published at Nevada City. Editor and Publisher H. M. LEETE Poe Published Semi-Weekly, \Monday and Thursday at Nevada City, California, and entered as mail matter of the second class in the postoffice at Nevada City under Act of Congress, March 3, 1879. SUBSCRIPTION RATES One year (In Advance) ....-.Rh aban es ER $3.00 Orme MOWER 3 ae 30 cents A CALIFORNIA SAGA . . Not all the story of California's sweeping advance: from its early day pastoral era of rangelands, wheatfields and orchard groves to a hustling industrial giant can be told in the matter of fact language of numbers. But in the most comprehensive survey ever made by California's Bureau of Labor Statistics, which has just been published, there emerges a record of progress which seems to show that the Golden West as a fabulous land of opportunity and lusty growth was by no means just a sentimental legend. But the most striking fact revealed in California's history since 1890 has been its transformation into a state of major industrial importance. In the last 50 years, California's total labor force increased 442 per cent compared to 127 per cent for the whole country. The growth of new industries and manufacturing, particularly since 1920, went hand in hand with the expansion -of California's financial resources, the development of a sound ‘statewide branch banking system second to none, circulating funds continuously through the state to meet the requirements of business and industry in any locality. What this contributed to the state's financial stability can be gauged from the fact that during the hectic period between 1920 and 1933 we had among the fewest bank failures of any state in the Union. This has not been the only point on which California has surpassed her sister states. During 1939 this state led all others in rate of increase of wage earners employed in manufacturing industries. renresenting a gain of 132 per cent! over 1914 as compared with an increase of less than 25 per cent in such employment for the nation as a whole in 1939, Nor is the story yet done. Under the spur of all out defense, California’s tomorrow is certain to record even greater chapters in her growth.—Contributed. wv The bureau of standards has a thermometer which will give accurate readings as low as 259 degrees C below zero, or within four degrees of absolute zero. With this instrument we could come within four degrees of measuring our affection for Hitler.

On certain days you will feel the heat more than on other days. You may find yourself saying in desperation that you would give anything to be cool and comfortable. You may even express wild desires as to what you would like to do. A big wild wish might be: “I wish I was under Niagara Falls.” * There is no need however to go to such far lengths to keep cool and comfortable during the summer. Use falling water to tone down the annoying high level of heat within your house. Do as thousands of families have done in interior California. Install an Electric Evaporative Cooler. * You will find the Electric Evaporative Cooler is a practical, lowcost solution to cooling comfort for yourself and your family.

One may imagine that he was. There thev were. million upon million-of shining orbs, moving silently and maiestically above him, each one pursuing the orderly course ordained since time began and each one sublimely indifferent to his little conquests and his. selfish vainglorious ambitions. Did Alexander feel utterly purile and insignificant as he considered the stars in their course, or did he glare at them . with red, apish eyes and curse aloud at his inability to subdue! even the very least among them? Did he realize the futility of. his victories and the instability of the structure he had reared upon a foundation of destruction. Did he yearn at length for . . the order, peace and harmony displayed in the heavens above, him? Did he catch a prophetic vision of his own proud empire, tottering to its fall and know that ignominious death was to be his recompense for a life of greed and strife? There are many lessons’ which earth's war lords might, learn while contemplating the orbs of night. Orion’s sword, for instance, is for decorative purposes only. Ursa Major and Ursa Minor never invade each other’s territory. The North
Star keeps its ancient course, even the densely populated; Milky Way is never disrupted by the wreck of war. Symbols of peace and order are: the stars, steadfast through unnumbered ages, they constitute a reproach to the turmoil and instability of our life on earth. : Perhaps we had best defer our study of the stars above . to some more favorable time and devote all of our eriergies to! the task of keeping the blessed stars shining in our own Am-. erican flag. I wonder if Senator Hiram Johnson ever heard it said. that. ““comparisons are odious.’’ Probably not, for when in a' recent speech he compared our President to Hitler and Mussolini, he certainly uttered odiousness—plus. Perhaps a serious study of Plutarch’s Lives and other-books on the subject of Comparison is needed. Uncle Silas says: “It’s just too bad that great scientists and inventors can’t devise some method of getting across to the moon. That cold, dead planet would be a mighty good retreat for ardent isolationists.”’ —A. Merriam Conner.
