At a meeting held recently, Gra-:
vel Range Lodge No. 59 F. & A.
M. voted to make some _ improvements about their hall. Although it
is classed as the Masonic Hall, is is
really the community hall, the only
place -where public gatherings, funerals, church services, and — other
community matters can ‘be held.
During the past many years it has
been illuminated at night by the old
style kerosene lamps, which are dangerous, give poor light, and a nuisance to take care of and keep up.
The lodge voted to install a set of
compressed Flamoc gas immediately
for lighting the lodge recom, dance
hail, and other rooms in the building. This. gas) is very economical to
install, and has already been tested .
vut in this section, proving very satisfactory for lights, and way. cheaper
than other installations of various
kinds. It is considered the next best
to taking electricity from the line.
Grant & Heather have formed a
partnership in the general lumber
business, papers having been made
out several days ago whereby they
acquired the 600 acres' of virgin
timber land of Long Brothers in the
Mil Creek District, seven / miles
west of here. They have purchased
a saw mil! in Mendocino County anc
are preparing to truck it to the new
location immediately and get it sei
up as soon as possible. They expect
to start cutting lumber June Ist.
They have also acquired the remaining plant of the Oak Valley Lumber
‘Companies mill, most of which was
destroyed by fire late last fall. Wm. !
O. Grant managed the Oak Valley
Company, and is well versed on the
industry, Alfred Heether is a business man of Nevada City, and their
many friends wish them every suc“eess.
Edward S. Goetze of San Francis~ co spent the week end here, making
arrangements for the visitation of
Oriental Lodge No. 144 to Gravel/i
Range Lodge which will take /place
oerv the week end of May . 10th
Conciderable improvement, necessitated bya cavein the road along
the edge of the diggin’s bank in the
iewer part of town, is being done,
which, when finished will make a
much betier road and street into!
the lower end of town. The caving
necessitated a change in course of
the culvert pipe, the removal of six
feet mere of the hillside, to make
the road safe, and the building of a
new fence along the edge of the
bank. The new road will be wide
enough for two cars to pass which
was not enjoyed on the old road.

Senior Farce. Yes, it is to be presented at the Nevada Theater on
Thursday, ' April 3. Oh, of coruse,
you couldn’t miss it. Yes, I think
yeu had better postpone your bridge
party”. ;
Well, folks, I think you are
mighty sensible to reserve next
Thursday night for the Senior. Farce,
“Peekaboo Lady’. Eyeryone ought
to see that farce. There are enough
laughs in it to last the whole town
a year.
Mr, I: Wood, a young man who
never had a serious thought in his
life, is in love with Ima Springer
and they wish to get married, but
their guardians object. Crystal
Springer ,Ima’s aunt and guardian
will not hear of the marriage, Likewise, I. M,. Cash, Wood’s uncle and
guardian, objects to such a union,
namely because of his hatred of women. The result is that Crystal decides to take Ima to Topple Inf in
order to rid her :of Wood’s attention, Wood, unbeknown to his uncle,
ier and follows Ima to Topple Inn,
where he accepts a position as desk
clerk. I, M, Cash, who finds life
lonely after the departure of his nephew, decides to spend his vacation
at Topple Inn. The old maid aunt
and bachelor uncle meet and, strange
to say, their hatred for the opposite
sex seems to disappear. In fact I.
M. becomes very interested in Crystal and he wins her favor. However,
he does not do this entirely on his
own merit because, first ,Wood masiuerades as his uncle and courts
the lady, and, second, I. M’s long
lost twin brother, I. O. Cash turn,
up at Topple Inn, meets’ Crystal
ind also becomes infatuated with
her. The complications that follow
are both humorous and _ tragieal.
It you want to see how this
tangled. web is straightened out, be
present at the Nevada Theater on
Thursday night, April 3.

Warm your heart asthe day is done,
