Hungarian violinist, will keep his date with Northern California March 2 with a-‘concert in Memorial Auditorium, Sacramen. to. Szigeti, whose appearance here will close the Sacramento Music Series for 1939-40, was to have appeared February 20. He has been confined to a San Francisco hospital. The artist has chosen a program which will include several serious compositions, among which are the Kruetzer Sonata of Beethoven; Cesar Franck’s Sonata in A Major and Ernst Bloch’s “‘Baal Shem” suite. Lighter selections will be compositions by Pakanini, Mompou = and Stravinsky. Andor Farkas will be the piano accompanist. Szigeti, who is a native of Budapest, has made successful concert appearances throughout Europe and his first American tour was in 1925 when he was introduced by Stokowski and‘ the Philadelphia orchestra. Tickets for his concert are on sale now at Ye Music Shoppe, 1014 Tenth Street, Sacramento. a Tennessee Mine Is Continuing Operations R. M. Scott reported this week that the Tennessee mine at Poker Flat is going ahead with its operations which include drifting on the main tunnel, a distance of 2100 feet. According to the present plans, a lraise will be made in the near future at the mine. ~ Those working at the mine are Walter Scott and Charles and Walter Pore.

DANCE AT PETERSON’S’ CORNER A St. Patrick’s dance is being given Saturday evening, March 16, at Peterson’s corner two and-a. half miles south of North San Juan by G. H. Peterson. This is the second of the series of popular dances at this place and they have secured the well Industrial activity in the Twelfth District was January, after allowance for seasonal influences, at the high level attained late in 1939. Small reductions in output took place in a few lines, but these were approximately offset by expansion in others, notably in the aircraft and lumber industries. Largely as a result of expanded activity at aircraft plans and lumber mills, payrolls advanced to a new record level. Bank Gives Summary Of Business Conditions In Federal Reserve District well maintained in New orders received by district manufacturers for most primary industrial products on which information is available continued in about the December volume, and in the lumber, steel and pulp industries orders approximated current relatively high rates of output. On the other hand, orders for several processed agricultural products, including flour and canned and dried fruits, continued relatiely small in January and February. Slow current sales of some of these commodities reflect partly. the heavy advance buying by domestic distributors early last fall and partly the disturbed trading conditions in usually important foreign markets for such products. In the field of construction, new residential puilditg undertaken in January continued -in good volume but nonresidential building remained dull. After having expanded moderately in November and December, retail trade declined in January and the first three weeks of February to about the levels of the early fall. The shortage, of soil moisture, which had become acute in large sections of the district late in 1939, has been relieved since the first of the year by unusually heavy rains and snows. The snow pack in the higher elevations increased but by February 20 was still below normal and in most western states and more was needed for future irrigation use. Widespread storms since that date, however, have added further to the mountain snow storage,.and at the end of February, snow packs were approaching normal at many points. Livestock ranges were greatly improved by the heavy precipitation in January and February, and fall and winter sown grains, truck crops, and citrus fruits also benefitted. Mild temperatures generally prevailed throughout the district and frost damage was small. In contrast unusually severe weather elsewhere in the United States damaged competing truck crops and citrus fruits. A decline in loans to commercial and industrial enterprises by city member banks is-eustomary during January and February, but this year . . such loans expanded, continuing the evident increase during the—last 4 months of 1939. In. late February these loans were somewhat ° larger than a year earlier, gains since last September more than offsetting the}, reduction-in bank credit extended business enterprises during the firyt known Mid’s orchestra for the ball. half of 1939. ‘ T * Summer will soon be here. This means that 7,000,000 bicycles will soon be traveling ‘the streets and one-half, or 3,500,000, of the bike enthusiasts will disobey every traffic rule and regulation that has been made for their own personal safety. For some unknown reason the cyclist has come to believe that he is immune to danger and that it is the duty of all drivers to yield the right of way as soon as a bike approaches. During 1939, 700 bicycle riders were killed and 25,000 injured. A great majority of these unfortunate accidents were caused by the riders failure to convince himself that he too, must obey traffic laws. A cyclist must remember that his bicycle comes in the same catagory as a motor vehicle. It is the riders job to control his bike in the same manner that a safe and sane motorist controls his automobile, We urge each and every bike rider to exercise all possible caution and to obey all traffic rules and regulations. If everyone does his share we are confident that this summer will be an enjoyable season for all cyclists. BENJAMIN JENKINS, Chief of Police, Grass Valley, California.
