Thinking Out Loud Nevada City Nugget ‘COVERS RICHEST GOLD AREA IN CALIFORNIA city and adve The Nevada City Nugget helps your you help yourself. and county to grow in population prosperity. By subsribing to, and — rtising in the Nugget, therefore, e pee H. M. L. 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 doubt whether the palm can nowVol. 11, No. 40. The County Seat Paper NEVADA CITY, CALIF ORNIA The Gold Center MONDAY, MAY 17, 1937 MOULTON, HILLS 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. Meanwhile, the arraignment of Main ‘street, Grass Valley, just below and south of Town Talk at 2:30 this morning when it is presumed he fell asleep at the wheel of his machine and erushing his chest his skull. He was a native of France a miner’ by profession, and had. resided in Grass Valley two years, in California 19 years. STREAMS ARE T00 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.

Alert and keen of mind she enjoys a large circle of friends. : Mrs. Evans as a child with her parents, came from Ohio via New York City, Isthmus of Panama, arTriving in San Francisco May 23, 1863. A steam train carried them across the isthmus and “the 1409 passengers embarked on the ship, Champion, for San Francisco. The whole trip was made in 23 days. Her father, John Adair, had made three. trips to California for his health selling his blacksmith shop the last time. It stood where the Cleland Service station now is located. When he found he could not remain in his home in the east he brought his family to Nevada county passing through Nevada City just after the big fire enroute to Phelps Hill.

Jane Barton, who arrived in Nevada City today, will be the conference leader at the institute and cooking school. On her visit here last year when she presiied in the first Home Craft Institute ever held-in this city, she made many friends. She will be assisted on the stage by Mrs. Ruth Bonivert.

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.

Memorial 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 reverenced, or was, at least in the Golden Age, and sometimes is, even still will hear leaders in world affairs, say with pride: ‘‘I sat under John LeConte,” or, “I heard Charles Mills Gayley in Great Books,” or, “I today, in our great universities.
