Gold and dilver Output $10,000,000 Se : eferteetergets LANDIS HOSPITAL AND CLINIC VALUABLE ASSET Modern hospitalization in cities and towns worthy of the name is a conceded hallmark indicative of civic pride and a sincere desire on the part of thinking men and women to provide such facilities as are most “necessary and essential to suc -essinland varied ly cope with the many contingemeies coming under the category of all manner of physical infirmities to which humanity is heir. On the other hand, wherever well managed and well maintained hospital aceommodation is lacking, communities so affected sustain a Toss in county, state and national p tige that cannot be estimated from the yiewpoint~of dollars and cents. While. therefore, summarizing in this progress edition the more outstanding things that have, upward of one hundred years, kept Nevada County’s potential greatness constantly in the publie eye, we have! also endeavoted to set forth a faithfor bine their forees so efficiently and effectively as to have deservedly won the confidence, co-operation and good will of all classes of right local people, and patients particular. thinking their trusting In laboratory in fittings, furnishings and and surgery equipment, including, of course, other appointments for the convenience of patjents, staff and visitors, the Landis Hospital and Clinic is a substantial Grass Valley fixture surpassed by no other public or private institution of the kind within or without the state of California. A mode! hospit its al and clinie in the truest sense of the term Doctor Landis, in his wisdom and foresight T: has made ample proyision for the handling, with prompthess and dispatch, of cases coming under almost every conceivable category of human disability, and to this end the various model departments of this well thought of, homeowned institution are’ presided over by conscientious specialists in surgery and medicine, ful portrayal of the more salient things that are at present contribut-! ing, not only to Nevada County's . marked business and industrial en-. , terprise and consequent prosperity, but health, happiness and con. tentment of our county's citizenry as . well. . Under this latter category. too. much merited credit cannot be a) corded the scrupulously appointed . Landis Hospital and Clinic which, during the four years ofence, has made an indelible jmpressfon for great good in Nevada County’s twin cities, and the county as whole. : By virtue of Nevada County's mesely rich, developed, partially developed and as vet undeveloped, mineral territory, to say nothing of numerous other valuable, virgin, natural resources, it is the consensus of opinion in well informed rehabilitation circles, that as an ideal scenic and health location for desirable, yearround homesites, coupled with contirnous new undertakings in business and industry, Nevada County} faces a bright and prosperous future and is destined, ‘ere long, to accommodate a population that wil) compare favorably with any of the state’s more densely settled. rural localitles. ' : From this viewpoint, if no other, the Landis Hospital and Clinie has already come to be looked upon, indeed, welcomed, as a permanent county asset of major importance to the well being of every thinking property owner and discerning wage earner domiciled within the county’s borders, and the wide territory around. Not only is this splendid institution a shining example of approved 20th Century procedure in well ordered and scrupulously managed hospitalization, but in a literal sense, it deserves to be looked upon the $d imas the highest form of silent tribute . that a grateful, local people could possibly pay to its far-sighted creator and responsible head in the person of Doctor Richard P.

A keen student of the mysteries of science and nature as exemplified in the broad field of never-ending search and research, the Landis Transfusion Syringe, which has been acclaimed within and without *the medical profession as a timely, scientific innovation of incalculable worth fully justifies the well consideed opinion: of this newspaper. and Nevada CGounty’s populace as a whole, that the Landis Hospital and Clinic. and Doctor Landis personally, together with his institutions profeshis carefully trained, acnurses, sepstand out as sional personnel and chosen staff of highly commodating, graduate arately and collectively, a pronounced boon to the present and future ‘prosperity, health, happiness and contentment of Nevada County and its people. a H.

A. HARTUNG’S, AN OLD AND RESPECTED JEWELRY STORE The business now owned by Mr. A. Hart jeweler, had itsfiret inception in a frame building situated on Broad street. The pbuilding was where the Bennetts building is now standing. The jewelery business in this building was first started by Mr: F. C.

On a warm June day in 1874, they moved into the building at 306 Broad street, the present building of the A. Hartung store. After moving into this new building, the Brand-Luetje company increased their stock -f goods a great deal. In the winter of 1875, "Mr. A. Hartung was broken in as an apprentice by Mr. Luetje. Mr. Hartung served for five years in that capacity and later attended an horological school in Burope. It was about this time that the clock, which everyone notices when they go in the store, nowadays, was purchased from a firm in the East. movement and an Ameriean case. The large pendulum in the clock has ticked faithfully for forty five years and is respected by all who look at it. j Mr. A. Hartung was admitted as a partner with F. C.

The clock has a Swiss} tung, who had also leaned the trade, finishing in Philadelphia and Chicazo, bought out the one half interest of Mr. Luetje and the Hartung Brothers formed a co-partnership undeér the firm name of A. and H. W. Hartung. The partnership continued un. til. 1916, when it was dissolved by . mutual consent. H. W. Hartung took over the Grass Valley store and A. Hartung continued in the Nevada City store. This Grass Valley store was purchased from Carl Zapf, Mr. A. Hartung and son, Everett, H. W. Brand formed 2 co-partnership under the name of BE. W. Hartung and Company. Owing to the death of E. W. Hartung, this partnership was dissolved later and H. W. Hartung took over, by purchase, the entire stock and good will of the firm. There are a few people, perhaps, who can remember an exprosion about this time in Nevada City. It was a ‘dynamite explosion and blew out a)most all the narow store windows in town. Because of this, the present plate glass window was installed. Herman W. Brand, who had learned the jewelers’ trade under his father was accepted as a full partner by his father in 1897. This jewelry. company was known as the C. J. Brand and Son Jewelry Store. It is interesting to note that at one time there were five people working in this store. The Brand family continued the business until 1925: The male members of the family having passed on, the mother and daughter decided to close out the business and conducted a sale of the fixtures. Mr. A. Hartung purchased their fixtures and put in a stock of jewelery and silverware and has continued the business successfully up to the present time, assisted ably by Miss Maude Keenan, who has been an employee in ithe store since 1922. One can readily understand the pride that not only the owner of such la business feels in its long and honiorable history, but also that of Nevada City’s old time families who still uses and esteem silverware, watches and clocks purchased from A. Hartung and the members of the Brand and Hartung families in years agone. Honest craftsmanship and honest values endure in honor through the years. NEVADA CITY BOTTLING WORKS MODEL HOME INDUSTRY The Nevada City Bottling Works under the responsible ownershi ip and progressive management of Mr. E. R. Stambaugh, deserves. classification as among Nevada County’ s really useful home industries that are entitled to the preferential consid. eration and support of all elasses of patriotic, local people. Nowhere in the country are more delicious, prime quality ,carbonated beverages . more scrupulously or painstakingly prepared under approved sanitary conditions for human consumption, than is the case at Mr. Stambaugh’s completely fitted up plant. Since, therefore, Nevada County is already deservedly recognized the country over as among California’s . more popular, year-round, scenic re. sort and health centers, not only . should public-spirited, local people . feel justly proud of the Nevada City . Bottling Works, but cheerfully cooperate with Mr Stambaugh in helping make this useful Nevada Coun. ty enterprise one of the most notable . of the kind in the West.

ERROL MacBOYLE LOYAL NEVADA COUNTY STANDBY Nevada County can, in her more than eighty years of creditable, colorful gravel and quartz mining history, point with no little pride to_not a few high-minded, publie-spirited men and women who have been prominently identified with the generations that have come and gone; and have, by virtue of their fine leadership and unerring conception of the needs .of a new country and its people, left an indelible impression for good this county’s remarkable growth and development. While, more in therefore, reviewing the noteworthy doings of thinking men and women-of-affairs throughout our county’s bristling history, it is doubtful if at any time-since the first . explorations were undertaken and stettlements effected where the county’s Twin Cities now stand, a single human soul of past or present re,cord has generously and unselfishand talents more usefully in : common domiciled here, than has one of Nevada County’s, and we might add, the person of Mr. Errol MacBoyle.
