HUGE PARTY TO CELEBRATE FLKS. ATTH BIRTH, AY two-city community here that we . believe, will exceed population figures of the past by some thousand: in the meantime the shambers of} ecommerce of Grass Valley and No. Wada City are striving to build up . this area into an attractive place for ; residence of some of the. thousands who have come to California during the exodus from east to west of the ‘war years, and the continuing influx of people seeking homes in California. This effort of the chambers’ of *eommerce is directed along two lines, First to. strive for such improvements as better sewer systems and roads and safer water supply, by enflarging the city limits and extendv ing the advantages of health, police and fire ordinances to outlying districts, and second by adverttising thig region’s scenic splendor, its great sports and recreational advantages, . winter or summer, and natural hhealthfulness of the climate and loeation. That this endeavor is beginning to bear good fruit is evident in the fact that there are no vacant homes in Nevada County, at least homes that are fit to live in, and that hundreds of new families have chosen ‘to make Grass Valley, Nevada City and environs their residence. They have in most instances purchased their homes and are putting their faith and doHars in Nevada County’s future. We are concerned with the dewelopment of airports in Grass Valfey and Nevada City which will fill the requirements of aerial traffic, Passenger and freight, in the years *o come. We are convinced that durfing the next twenty years a very Jarge number of private planeg will fhe purchased and used much as motor cars now are. Add to this the increasing number of commercial airlines, performing many of the services that railroad truck and bus fines now perform, and it is easy to forecast the tremendous advantage adequate airports will be to the two} ities. We recall that automobiles were a (Nong time, a dozeh years or more, eoming into popular use. In this era, of rapid traffic and engineerfing advance, we do not believe common use of planes will be so long delayed. Old timers recall with some ‘nostalgla the advent of the* narrow guage railroad to this region. They will recall the big lift the railroad gave to mining, farming and other -industries. In our opinion adequate airports relatively will give this area a mpch greater boost. Planes will in western garb they will play and sing songs of the range. Vocal harmony will be accompanied by accordion and guitar. The two groups have made hundreds of appearances in hospitals, bond rallies and USO shows. Their work continues as a regular unit with the musical therapy program in Veterans Hospitals. Coming from San Mateo, they were the recent hit of the Bay Meadows Fiesta. Well known local entertainers who will contribute to the huge party to commemorate the 47th birthday of the local Elks will be Mrs. Plorence Kendrick, Glen Roscoe high school talent of Franz Luschen and other ‘acts. Jerry Austin, wizard of the piano with his orchestra will provide the dance music. Bob Paine is general chairman of the event and is being assisted by Curtis Clark, ‘Chester Scheemer, John Gbaffi, Lloyd Penrose, [Fred Garrison, Robert Tamblyn and Elbridge Skeahan. Where Are Lucky Buttons and Happy The McCormick kennels are empty. First it was Mac, Jr, County Service Oficer, who lost his hunting dogs and now the pet puppy of his wife, Marie, has been ost, strayed or stolen. While on a deer trip near Columlbia Hill last week Lucy, a black and white female hound, and Buttons, a mustard colored hound did not return to the stand. Thursday, Happy, the household Labrador Retreaver puppy did not show up for his supper. If you see them please phone 299 M, 319 NC, or phone the Nugget at Nevada City 36. Its just too quiet around the McCormick home on the Banner road until the dogs are found. be used for long distances comimuting. People who have offices in San ‘Francisco, when safe landing fields are assured, can. make their homes along the Sierra foothills. We mention airports forthe reason that we think they will be a de‘cided factor in the future prosperity of all mountain towns. We believe there are thousands of people who will prefer to live in rural communities, such as Grass Valley and Nevada City, provided only their have easy and quick air service to metro(politan centers.
