sold the Mobile Park and. are sojourning in their former home in Southern California, My dictionary says a sojourner is one who visits from place to place. This is what the Bradleys plan
to do for a while. They still have their home at the park.

Last Sunday I.spoke to Mr. and Mrs, Lawrence M, Steele of Yuba City about the anticipated
Post Office opening date. Steele advised me that ‘the building plans have been okayed by the Post
Office Dept, (I guess you are supposed to say Postal Services these days) that, weather permitting, building will begin on the 22nd of February and the completion date is set for April 21.
The Steeles are as enthusiastic about our new post office as we are. They feel that the outside
of the building will carry on the old mining town character which is so right for the heritage
of our community, It will have an old false front facade just as the station and Old Fippin Shop
across the street have. a

A letter from our chamber of commerce, in January, concerning the unloading of so many,
school buses in the store area and the hazardous highway crossing there has finally received
concrete recognition from the Highway Safety Dept. in Marysville. A crosswalk will be marked
there in the near future. This will provide some improvement in the safety for the children crossing there and for the rest of us who have been taking our lives in our hands since 1967 when the
matter was first introduced, The original discussions of the matter were conducted by the county
chamber with representatives of the Highways Department and representatives from the local
areas. At that time 14 points of concern were listed for future correction. Fortunately no one
has been killed in our town in-these four years. The bad curve at Squirrel Creek crossing and the
one in Penn Valley have not been so fortunate, Improvements were made at the Squirrel Creek
crossing but it is still not straight enough. We live where we can hear the crashes, The victim
of the latest accident at the bad corner in Penn Valley has been in the hospital now for aboutthree weeks and was still in critical condition the-last I read, ‘

The contents of Wapple's investigation and recommendations
have not been made public.
In inviting parents to send
their children to the Yuba county
elementary schools Ferrari's
letter also said:
"The Rose Bar School ‘will
remain open and continue with
the same educational program,
children may attend the Loma
Rica and Foothill Elementar
schools," ;
The letter added that "the
educational program offered at
Rose Bar School will be reviewed and evaluated."
The Rose Bar School at
Smartville has long been considered a marginal operation
by school authorities in the
Marysville Unified School District and the exodus of seven
of the school's 17 pupils raises
the possibility it will be closed.
Parents battled in 1967 to
keep the school open when no
funds were included in the 196768 budget. The parents waged a
determined campaign and the
school did remain open.

We have five new:babies in the barn .now. One of the latest pair got a real bad start and I
have been plying the bottle regularly. Yesterday she started showing a preference for her mother's
method of feeding and so I can relax, We have one more expectant mother but it may be some
