July 30, 1964..Nevada County Nugget.. 21 #atzatatet_etie AT HOME IN THE COUNTRY ¢0te?atetue been WORK IS in progress at the Nevada Irrigation District's new office and yard complex just west of the Grass Valley city limits on the second building. This will be the shop building for vehicle repair and welding. The concrete block structure of 5000 square feet will cost about $35,000, Work was started July 1 and the estimated completion date is September 15. The first building to be completed at the NID 14 acre site for use as a garage can be seen in the right rear, This structure is now being used as an office for the project engineers for the NID Yuba-Bear River Development. Music Circus Stop The World-!. Want , To Get Off,A New Style Musical Anew style musical, Stop The World I Want To Get Off, will be the next offering at Music Circus, opening Monday night, August 3 for a week's run through Sunday, August 9. Stop The World, which ran in London and Néw York’ for over two years, took the critics and audiences by surprise. Totally different from anything seen before, the show has a singularly stimulating impact. Its stylized interpretation of the seven stages of man is unique in the theatre, It requires an unusual amount of versatility in its two main characters. Littlechap and Evie. The male leadin particular must act, sing, dance, and in addition be an expert mime. Truly a tour de force. Lewis and Young, producers of Music Circus, have been most fortunate in their casting. Playing Littlechap will be KennethN elson who has just completed the road tour of the company and who played the role on Broadway after Anthony Newley. He was person > ally trained in the role by Mr. Newley who created the part in the-original London production and later in New York, Mr. Newley, along with Leslie Bricusse, is also responsible for the book and score. Playing Evie, the foil for Littlechap, will be Carole Cook, a fast rising comedienne. Stop The World has a score which matches its story, What Kind of Fool Am I?, Gonna Build A Mountain, Once In A Lifetime are three of the songs which are ‘well known. There are others equally good, such as Someone Nice Like You and a little ditty called Typically English, which Evie sings throughout the show, but with appropriate variations. — Debby Thompson EET EE The White Cliffs. My Life Wish Fulfilled. . Nevada Union High School's folk-singing AFS Student Abroad Debby Thompson reached her destination in FinlandJuly 9, talked three hours about education there with “sister” Ilona, and toured the Baltic Sea city of Turku the following day. In her own words, she reports: July 8 -I'm on a train going through Denmark now, but! guess I'll take it from yesterday. Am I ever glad to get off that boat! Actually the trip was nice going through the English channel, Really calm and all..and LAND.. the White Cliffs of Dover. My life wish is fulfilled. I SAW ENGLAND! Anyway, we docked in Rotterdam at 6 a.m. on the 7th, but we were the second to last country off. 10 a.m.! Well, we skipped light-heartedly down the gang~plank -scrambling like ruddy good eggs--to get to land. Then we got our luggage and went down to the busses, I was last off at the train. There Rauni (AFS chaperone) handed out mail. The train pulled out at 12:15 p.m. Weheard some Hollander telling some AFSers that all Americans are stupid, So tactful and all! He got this impression from some tourist that thought the Rhine was the NILE! Oh brother.. We stopped at one town in Holland for 15 minutes. Right in the middle of town. There were girls leaning out of an apartment window waving so we waved back. Soon the whole living room was Antiques At The. State Fair Avast array of antiques, rang~ ing from pre-Columbian art to old guns, ancient furniture and collections of early American glass will be featured during the final week of the California State Fair, September 2-13. The antiques, which will span a thousand years of western civilization, will be presented in the Fair's third annual Antique Show and Sale and will feature displays by some of California's most prominent professional antique dealers. This year's show, located near the Gemand Mineral Show building on the east end of the Fairgrounds, will feature armour dating back to the 14th century Quality x%O a Name Brands Da re, TRUEBLOOD AUTOMOTIVE ¢ 07, , & oe ace 110 SO.

or before; firearms from matchlock to rare American Civil War ordnance; and dolls, rare and beautiful costumes, and some of, the finest antique china in existence. For those serious antique collectors who come to buy, this show, one of the largest ever held in northern California, will be a treasure-trove. For the fairgoer who comes only to learn and to look this will be a liberal education in antiques. Creative Aris Workshop Children 5 to 16.

Oh, was it good. P. O. Box 1006, Grass Valley Yankee folkster in Scandinavia! That was my name on the boat. No one had time to learn names, so I was just “the folksinger". We had breakfast in Copenhagen. The milk hereabouts is terrific. We spent the rest of the day going through Denmark and Swe-den. The-lunch en the train.was ty pically Scandinavian. Cold meats and many kinds of bread. Boy was it nice to get to the boat atnight. But we had to carry all that blasted luggage around through infinitely small doors. We were on a month-old boat.

But I'm closer to the outhouse than the others. We ate lunch and they showed me their sauna. Very clean and nice. I think I may enjoy it! We walked tothe store for some bread and got an ice. On the way back Ilona told me about the two kinds of poisonous snakes in the area. One is the viper. Mad! And the other is a black snake with a little zigzag up its back. It can't kill you but (even) a young one can make you very sick, Ilona has only killedone. Later, Irma said she had only seen two of them. Something was said about them swimming on the sea. Great Scott! After that, Ilona and I talked about education. There are, of course, many differences.
