PROTECTING NATURAL RESOURCES
*% Dozens of notable public and private careers in our hisstory have been dedicated to the principle of conservation of
national resources. Greeley and Grady and Watterson and
other great editors thundered anathma at many administrations for neglect of the riches with which nature has endowed
the country. More than one Cabinet crisis resulted from determined attempts to safeguard the Nation’s mineral and timber supplies. we

Five millions is being spent in checking soil erosion to .
provide for reforestation. Destruction of forests by fire, plant '
disease, and insect pests is being fought by the Civilian Con .

and coal industries already there is assurance that there will
no longer be waste, so recently wanton, of those irreparable

PROFITABLE READING
a
“Our lives are shaped in no small degree by what we
read,’ says Professor Leon J. Richardson, director of the Extension Division of the University of California.
“Some read too little, some too much. Mental nurture is
not unlike the nourishment of the body; too little food hamp_ ers growth, while too much makes one sluggish. A mind untrained by reading is an unfurnished flat; whereas heaping up
poor matter clutters the mental house. Read, therefore, what
you can aésimilate, what is worth while, what you are genuine» dy interested in.
: “You strive to promote your work and enrich your life.
Read, therefore, systematically where information and knowledge must be gathered, but as the spirit prompts when you
would be lifted to the heights. Read now for practical ends,
‘as when a workaday problem has to be solved, now with the
_/ ‘game motive that makes you cast yourself down a hillside to

THE NEVADA CITY NUGGET
KEEP TRYING
I can’t do this and I can’t do that,
So what is the use of trying?
The task is hard and the way is long,
And the whole world’s filled with sighing.
But a new day smiled thru the mists of dawn
And kindled my hopes anew; :
And a lark sang clear in a meadow near, ,
‘There is nothing you cannot do!"
‘Think of my task,” said the dragon fly,
On her gossamer wings of blue,
‘Il came from the depths of a slimy pool— .
There is nothing you cannot do!”
A creeping worm near a garden wall,
With its patience rebuked my sighing;
“I go,” it said, ““on my weary way,
But soon I'll be flying—flying!”’
A wild rose whispered the message true,
From its glowing heart of gold; z
It was taken up by a summer breeze,
And unto the wide world told.
The sun and the moon and the morning stars
Sang the wonderful theme anew, ° ne
Till the whole world echoed the glad refrain,
“There is nothing you cannot do!”’
E ] can do this and I can do that, .
And hope to my heart came flying;
The way is long and the task is hard;
But I'll win if I just keep trying!
