~ cozy CORNER CHAT
THERE IS ONE thing certain.
The many subscribers of this paper
are intensely loyal to its principles;
for which it has fought during its
more than three years of a busy
existence. We continually hear of
something nice that some friend of
the paper has uttered. One such recently came to us that was amde by
L. Hyman, formerly in _— business
here but now of Los Angeles.. We
have never met Mr. Hyman _ but
judging by the way he is pulling
for the paper, we are looking forward to such an event with a great
deal of pleasure. He has taken The
Nugget for the past two years and
tHe other day he ordered a copy
also sent to one of his San Francisco stores. You know there are always a lot of curbstone boosters in
every town who never jingle any
money in the cash drawer, It takes
money to keep the wheels turning
in any--business._and running a
newspaper is no exception. We are
very’ proud of the loyal army of
friends who have been’ generous
with their subscriptions and their
kind remarks. They help mightily
over the rough places.
THE OUTLOOK FOR THE mining
industry in and around Nevada City
this spring is mighty encouraging.
With the Murchie. working 80 men
just to the east, the Hoge Development Company putting over a large
program to the north, Gordon Bettles getting a 10 stamp mill ready
for operations just west of town
and the prospects of large .
ments in the Nevada Basin to the
south, is it any wonder that things .
are looking up around here? Add.
-to this our coming turpentine in-'
dustry, the completion of our state
highways opening up our scenic
wonderland, a Class A airport in
sight, Nevada City has real reason
to feel up and coming after the:
gloomy days she passed through
for some years. She can remember
that she has her own hewspaper
pulling for her right along. You
know that latter itemigquite an”
important connection in any community that wants, to get ahead.
Without its own newspaper to be
continually tooting the community
horn, a town is rather up against
it if it hasn’t its own individual
medium of expression. With the business men pullng solidly with their
home town paper and giving it
their advertising and their printing
in generous measure, there isn’t
Much that Nevada City May not
look foward to in the way of material progress.
THE LARGEST THING the Mining Association of California is attempting to put over is the new
mutual insurance company, designed to take a large portion of the
onerous burden put on the mining
industry by the autocratic rating
board of the-state compensation
fund. With the application forms
now ready for signing it is to be!
hoped that the mining operators
will grasp the opportunity to get
behnd the one worth while thing
that has come forward in a decade
to put a basic industry on its feet
once more. There are strong indications that the new company will
play an important Part in shaping
up our mining industry of the future. It should be entirely possible
«to eut the eost or compensation inMany thousands © of dollars to the
“operators as the company gets to
effective fashion.

THE NOISY HALLS .
By Lois Eden :
Why do we need loud l®ughter
going on at school? Some students
think the one who makes the most
noise in the halls is the most important. This is not true, of course,
and we-.should all try to prevent
loud or boisterous laughter.
We all want to bring our school
up. to a high standard, Limiting
the noise ‘will greatly help. Students, by the time they enter high
school, ought to be able to refrain
from loud noise. The students who
really want to study before school
starts, do not want to sit in the
study hall, pondering over a difficult lesson, and then have to Hsten
to the boisterous noise in the halls.
Let’s have more respect for ourselves and others than. to create
unnecessary noise.
There is only one thing to be
done, and that is for each individual student to be less noisy in the
halls. This does not mean one must
be almost silent. Just refrain from
loud laughing. Laugh, talk, and
have a good time talking and joking
with your classmates, but do not
be boisterous. The teachers and pupils will have more respect for a
student’ if he is more quiet. This is
not a hard task at all, although it
may sound hard. Let us all cooperate and make this school one of the
best.

WHY WE NEED A GYM
By Holden Pierce
In the days that our high school
was built, gyninasiums were
thought not to be needed, but now
they are very badly needed. It
could not only be used for athletics,
but for almost all school activities,
such as, plays and parties. In order
that we could have our school plays
there, it would have to have a
stage built in it, “but this is very
simple in the’ plans for modern
gymnasiums. For basketball it
would be very convenient. Althougit
we have a place to play basketball, it is very unhandy to get to
because basketball season comes
just about the time we have our
worst storms. It means’ that the
players must walk down to the hall
in the rain’ and wet.
The same hall that «is used for
basketball is used for Junior Prom
given by the respective classes. This means that they
must pay the rent, which amounts
to twenty five” dollars for each
party. : ;
Although the cost to build a gymnasium would begreat, the amount;
that is paid out each year for the
Red Men’s Hall and for the theater
amounts to at least two hundred
and thirty dollars a year.
ASSOCIATION LUNCHEON
The Girls’ Association are giving
a luncheon Wednesday noon, March
the fifth. This is the second of a
series of luncheons that the girls .
are planning to raise money to buy
curtains for entertainments by the
student organizations at the theatre.
The expenses of the luncheon will
be deducted from the amount taken
in from the sale.
