Jane Barton, who came to Nevada
City over a year ago to hold conferences with the women of this city
+o
respecting thefr Jvarious problems
in home making, arrived today, and
on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday
afternoons, will preside in a Home
in Nevada Theatre. Craft Institute
The hours are from 2 p. m. until 4
o’clock are perhaps a little later. All
women who attended last year, and
the theatre was well filled for each
session, will wish 'to attend this
year.
For Jane Barton brings to women a
short course in economy and beauty
making their lives as home makers
pleasanter ‘and easier, It cannot exactly be-called a postgraduate course
in housekeeping, but she does bring
to women the results of research in
foods and household management,
and illustrates new things that have
been invented or devised to augment
the comfort, pleasure or well being
of the family.
The usefulness of Jane Barton’s
Home Craft Institute has been demonstrated in thousands of California
homes. For, women today are the
spenders. By and large they are
shrewd and careful. To be successful home makers they must measure
carefully values and needs.
Time was when French women
were held. up as an example to all
the women of the world of thrifty,
economical home management. We

ASK U.S. COURT
FOR PROBATION
SAN FRANCISCO, May 17.—The
sentencing of W. E. Moulton of
French Corral and B. W. Hills of
Grass Valley, convicted Wednesday
of illicit dealings in gold was postponed Saturday for two weeks pending a report by the federal probation
officer.
Federal District Judge Michael J.
Roche*ordered the delay on the motion of Defense Attorney Ray Manwell of Marysville for reference of
the defendant’s case to the federal
probation officer for a report.
Roche granted the motion after
denying motions by» Defense Attorney Ray Coughlin of Sacramento for
a new trial and for an_ arrested
judgment.
Moulton and Hills were convicted
by :a jury on two counts, conspiracy
to violate the Gold Reserves Act
of 1934 and falsification of their
records of gold sales to the San Francisco mint.
They face maximum penalties of
twelve years imprisonmet and fines
of $20,000 each.
Both are confined in the San
Francisco county jail pending the
pronouncement of sentence.

HIGH FOR FISHING
Oscar Odegaard, who yesterday
made a trip. to Downieville and
around by Yuba’ Pass to Sierraville,
Truckee and home by way of the Tahoe Ukiah road reports that’ the
streams are generally too high for
fishing. The South and Middle Yuba
are not only high but are also muddy. Oregon creek is clear but the
weter is high. Above Downieville the
North Yuba is clear but running a
torrent and higher in the mountains
melting snows have swelled the
streams so that they are foaming
white cateracts, This is the time of
the year to make the DownievilleTruckee loop, however, Odegaard declares. The dogwood is in bloom and
the trees in their brand new spring
frocks are a charming sight.

CONFERENCE PROGRAMS
Mrs. Barton has carefully gathered the most important of these customs together and woven them into
her three conference programs, so
that everyone may have an opportunity to become familiar with our
state’s glorious domestic heritage.
The California Home Craft Institute will be conducted in the same
informal and realistic manner which
has won the participation and interest of thousands of California women during the past five years. The
audience will be invited to take part
with Jane in her activities as she
runs through the typical routine of a
California home, pointing out shortcuts, and modern methods that simplify and make more. pleasant the
usual duties of homemaking.
LEADER IN. ECONOMICS
Jane Barton, a graduate of University of Illinois in Home Economics, is deservedly a leader among
western women. In her home she has

Day is a day dedicated to the memory of the men and women who laid
down their lives that we might be
free. As a people we think so little
of it that we are rapidly renouncing
the freedom they died for.
But commencement in high schoal
and college is the birthday of citizenship. The most valuable crop of a
great country is coming into fruit.
We sever, as it were, the umbilical
cord that nourished our youth in the
protecting envelope of the school system, and usher into the world a
brand new group of men and women
to serve the time and the needs of
mankind. The world is their oyster
and somehow they must open it. The
tools we have given them have cost
us a pretty penny; in fact, we rightly
“spend more on the schools than for
anything else. If youth fails, or any
considerable number of them fail, we
have failed, we the taxpayers. There
are a.dozen. ways we may have fail
ed, but chiefly, our failure will be
due to the quality of the teachers we
have provided.
In ancient times a teacher was
measured by the achievement of his
pupils. A teacher whose pupils have
gone into the world and distinguish. ed themselves in great services, is
