Table decorations, place cards R. E. HARRIS R. BABSON URGES RETURN TO FARM, back on its feet, in of Roger W. Babson, lyst. Citing the case of an Arkansas try the opinion sion, but chose to take his family to a small farm and work himself out of his predicament instead of relying on government aid, Mr Babson concludes that “personal initiative was what made this country great, and only-personal. initiative will solve its present problems.”’ The story of the Arkansan is reminiscent. of early American days. With nothing but his -health and energy and a boundless faith in himself, he took his family to a small farm, worked for $1 a day, raised most of his food, saved money from the first day, and, when the opportunity came, rented a cheap vacant store, and successfully operated it by keeping open when other merchants were closed. Mr. Babson believes, however, that this return to the land must be at the initiative of individuals who ‘want to make their own way. Resettlement projects, such as tried by the overnment, set people down with fine homes, modern conveniences, and an insurmountable debt. FOR GOOD TIMES as A return to the land and a lot of hard work, coupled with the self-re-. } liance and independent sp‘rit of the founding fathers of this country, is the formula needed to put this counbusiness ana-j. legislative observer, presenting and analyzing. major economic problems . } man who lost his job in the depres. Lr aenidiaes THE LEGISLATURE IN REVIEW CHURCHES — SUNDAY SERVICES By RALPH H. TAYLOR 4 EDITOR'S NOTE—This is the first in a series of four articles by Ralph . H. Taylor, farm leader and veteran now at issue in California, which affect the entire state. Mr. Taylor . will review the work of the LegisSeinres during its recent four-week session; outline the problems which are now being studied by legislative . committees, and set forth the Part! . that the public must play in final de-. . termination of the questions in controversy. Speaker Gordon Garland of the Assembly, shortly before the State Legislature recessed its special ses. sion, made a forthright report to the people of ‘California—frankly Sstating, that the real contest at Sacramento had been over the question whether State Government should turn LEFT, as advocated by Communist controlled pressure groups, or whether it should turn ‘RIGHT “and return California to sanity and solvency.’’ He then made the reassuring declaration: “T am proud to report to you that your State ‘Legislature has turned RIGHT!”’ Mr. Garland’s report was a correct and challenging statement of the underlying issue of the four week’s special session. And ‘California citHIGHSCHOOL 3y BARBARA PHARISS One of the highlights of the school year will take place Friday night when the Sharps and Flats will give their spring formal dance. The Sharps and Flats is the combined chorus club. The club: will present a ‘rogram and dancing will continue until 12.Cap Carter’s well known ten piece @rchestra will provide the music for the dancers. The theme is “Easter Parade’ and the theme song “Easter Parade.” The chorus will sing several selections and. present their surprise Easter Parade. There will also be a trio and a solo. The committees have been working very hard for the past two weeks. The decorations promise to be very attractive, everything being carried out toward the theme. The general chairman is Bob Schmidt. The chairman for the various committees are advertising, Bill ‘Wagner; music, Bob Schmidt; program, Betty O’Connor; tickets, Marilyn Chapman; decoration, Hetty Clarke and refreshments, Elsie Schreiber. The advertising committee has posted signs and advertised in other schools. There was a parade on Thursday led by the high school band. The prices are 75c, 50c and 25c. The Sharps and Flats club and Mrs, Libbey hopes to see a large attendance. HOME ECONOMICS CLUB The Home Economics club is giving a formal dinner tonight before the dance. Members and their escorts may attend. The members will contribute the food, the girls being awarded points for their work. Misses Betty and Lois Held came down from Plum Valley yesterday for a visit with relatives and friends in: Nevada City. WORK-FREE worry-Free WA RMTH! izens have every reason: to be grate' right, instead of swerving further to responsibility for a few days ago in pointed paragraph, concluding a review of the Legislature’s work: tators are business to visit or write them; let them know what. you ful to a Legislature that had the good sense and the courage to turn the left, But the Legislature’s special session has not adjourned; it is only in recess, to reconvene on May 13, when many of the most hotly-debated issues—including the size of relief budgets and Governor Olson's proposals’ for 50 million in additional taxes—will come up for final action. And whether the Legislature continues in its determined stand against communist influences in the State Government, against extremism, relief racketeering and_ highhanded mis-use of public funds, will depend to large extent on the verdict that the public hands down while the legislators are at home, sounding out opinion in their réspective districts.

If you want higher taxes, by all means tell the men who represent you—and you will get what you.asked for. But if you have had enough—if you want economy and sanity in State Government, instead of new burdens—then make it your business to out-pressure the self-seeking pressure groups that have the ear of the present state ad= ministration.” In practical operation, that’s the way of a real democracy.
