Adjudicated a legal newspaper of general circulation by the Nevada County Superior Court , Juce 3, 1960, Decree1 No, 12, 406, Subscription Rates: ‘one year, $3,00; two years, $5, 00. 19s '2 the Nevada County Nugget — Wednesday, April 26, 1971. as Row eh BWweanady Mews By Fay M Dunbar . 273-2934 May Day used to mean May Baskets filled with flowers for your very favorite people, Mine as I recall were mostly made with paste, paper, and crayon and took a great deal of time and ~ work on my part. They went always to my mother, whenever possible to my grandmother and a favorite aunt or cousin (we lived away out in the country), and even occasionally to a special friend. Usually there was a party with a Maypole dance, I. remember with great glee trying to get the in and under bit just right as we ski around the pole to weave the ribbons down, Each turn brought you a little closer to the center and more skill was required. I don't remember any ever being just right but the fun was there. What a lot of things our kids today miss with their sophisticated entertainment. Chases Calendar of Annual Events lists 31 special celebrations for the first day of May but nary a May Basket or Maypole, Some of the 31 look pretty exciting tho’. One of them extended right . on through September 30, It was purely commercial but had a fun kind of name "Yams for Summertime Easy Livin'". Another cutie was "Give Your Girl a Pearl Day". Some of the more appropriate ones were Lei Day which is a major celebration in Hawaii, Another was the Annual Feast Day and Corn Dance at the San Felipe Pueblo in New Mexico. In Istanbul, Turkey they celebrate their Spring Feast and Tulip Festival on May 1, In Florida they have an All Florida Folk Festival. I didn't think "Its Mattress Size-up Time" or "International Play Your Own Harpsicord Month" added much to the date. And to me Labor celebrations belong in September. Chases isn't the only place. there is a busy month of May. May in Western Nevada county and Rough and Ready in particular seems to explode with activity. Sunday, May 2 the Pioneer Art Club will honor Rough and Ready with a Paint-In. Please come. The old Blacksmith Shop needs you. The art club has promised half of its proceeds to the restoration of the shop. An auction is scheduled for 4 p.m,* * Monday, May 3 at 7:30 p.m. the planning commission meets in the supervisors' chambers and will include the naming of Rough and Ready roads in its agenda, Again it's important to be there, All our service agencies, fire, ambulancé, etc. need street identification. : * a. * Wednesday, May 5 at 2:30 p.m. the Bookmobile makes its bi-monthly stop here by the cafe porch, ; My young friend Miss Loris Best found April busy and enjoyable. She attended the Science Fair at Cal Expo with her biology club on Monday, April 17. It was a-wonderful honor for Ron Small of our Rough and Ready 4-H Club to come home with. special honors. “Ron's true love is photography. I don't know which interest came first science or photography, or if they work together. Whichever, Ron does beautiful things with his photography. .Loris and her mother Mrs, Alice Best both work with the 4-H club and have a deep interest in it. Mrs, Best is a clothing project leader, On Friday of that same Science Fair week, the Sophomore class of NUHS sponsored a Sadie Hawkins dance and contrary to the reverse dating report the boys did seem to like the girls to ask them to the dance. Part of the Sadie Hawkins image I guess, though the only thing I found out about Sadie Hawkins was that her big day is November 14, The kids had a local group, the Trilliums, play for the dance. My reports indicate it was a ball. Mike Jonte also attended, The biology club has a trip to the Oakland Museum planned for this week, They are particularly interested in the floor of natural sciences, I understand its grand. I'm looking forward to seeing the floor of history. The Rough and Ready kitchen is there.
I suspect they call it the Pioneer Kitchen but look carefully, most of it came from Rough and Ready, the old Frank Fippin house, and our own Rough and Ready promoter Helene Hurlbut of Helen's Antiques. ; * * * On Earth Day, Thursday, a group of Rough and Ready youngsters walked to NUHS, They found it most enjoyable but a little long to do every day. : F Some things apparently have slowed down, There is a story around that in the 1860s news of the death of Lincoln was passed from miner to miner and reached Rough and Ready from Marysville in 30 minutes, The countryside was solid miner tc miner shouting distance. Nowadays you're lucky if you can get a free telephone line in 30 minutes and it takes an hour to drive the distance even with the gas buggy. The ates Ronee and Ready who sing with the Newcomers Lyric Ensemble participated in the dedication program at the Veterans Hall last Sunday, Fourteen plaques were dedicated and will be installed on the freeway overpasses, One at each ramp in the area, They are for our men who gave their lives overseas and are being remembered by the veterans organizations of the communities in this way. There were two from, our-area, Lt; Col; Bruce A; Jetisen, who lived in Rough and Ready at the time of ' -E, Freestone, son of the F1 Road, At the time of Col. ‘Jensen's death his wife, Miriam, and hindi lace duty Pte, David rank Freestones of Rough and Ready their children, Bruce and Laurel, had moved to Penn Valley, * f * Orchids to Ensign Thomas K, Rackerby, son of Col, (ret.) and Mrs, Archie B, Rackerby, of Bitney Springs Road, Young Tom graduated from UC Davis in '69, enlisted in'69, has completed his training, and is now stationed on the destroyer . USS Hepburn off the coast of South Vietnam, Orchids too to the Cookie Pack crew, Their next pack will be Tuesday, May 11. Mrs, Faye Vonde Veld tells me they are still packing but for lots fewer boys, They are sincerely hoping ' the number will-continue to dwindle right down to nothing, We would really be smart wouldn't we if we could learn to settle — differences around the conference table before we wipe ourselves from the face of the earth with modern super WeagKns. * The Parry Ranch has a new baby. Philip and Mary Parry of Rough and Ready Road raise a few horses just for the love of horses, The new baby arrived on Penn Valley Rodeo Day. Like all little colts she seems to be all legs and she sure knows how to use them, After each little helping of warm milk she takes a few turns over the hill and round and round-mother. Mother is a dark bay. I don't know father, Baby looks like she might be going to be a light bay. Her mane and tail will be bay points but those little flying feet look quite light to even turn black, She has a beautiful white heart (maybe horsemen call it a blaze) on her face. One of my real summer thrills will be watching her grow. The horse is surely one of nature's most interesting miracles, * } * ‘ * Mr, and Mrs, August Miller of Santa Ana and their two children visited Rough and Ready last week. Mrs, Miller is a sister of Mrs. Constance Baer and they came by for a quickie weekend visit with her. * *bd Mr, Carroll Justice has started a new career. Mr. Justice was our NID field man when we came here 15 years ago. Most of the years since thenhe has worked as a movie projectionist. Now he is going to fly. He plans on soloing soon, at least before his 75th birthday which is any day now. His oldest son Lannie is training with him at the new training field near Placerville, Mr. Justice assured us that it was him that interested his son in flying not the other way around as you would expect, Lannie was just a kid when we were new here, Used to give me a hand with my chores, He is married now and lives in Sacramento. The Justices’ other son also lives and works in the valley, Mrs, Leslie Justice also has a hobby, She plays the piano beautifully as many of you who attend the Christian Women's luncheons can attest. 400 at dedication of freeway plaques More than 400 people attendand Mark; Gold Flat Road ed the ceremony on Sunday to Overcrossing; dedicate 14 bronze plaques in memory of local servicemen who died in Vietnam, The plaques will be placed on the overcrossings of the Golden Center and Nevada City freeways.
