POSTER CONTEST

Bendy
By Fay M. Dunbar 273-2934
The citizens have an almost
"frantic" interest in their Post
Office in Rough and Ready so
whether we do or don't get anew
one, just now, everyone at least
wants to know all he can about
the old ones past. The first
post office was operating in
Rough and Ready when California was still a territory. The
mail came by mule back out of
Sacramento as early as the fall
of 1849. Mr. Alexander M, Blanton served as postmaster, probably operating as a territorial
appointee. Mr. Marcus Nutting
became the first federal appointee on July 28, 1851. The
mail was distributed at the
hotel desk in the old Downey
House (where the market center is now.) How many of the
hotel owners ever became official postmaster, I haven't
found out yet, but most of them
did the work, Mary Downey,
J. M. Walling, H. Schroeder
and many others. When Mrs.
Gertrude Fippin became postmaster she wanted the post office nearer home and they built
a small building beside the old
John Fippin home. I remained
there several years before being
returned to the hotel, In 1943,
the towns population had decreased to approximately 200
people, due to the economic
devastation caused by the war,
and the post office was closed.
Mrs, Letitia Vroman was postmistress at the time and the
. family moved to a defense plant
area to find work,
On June 16, 1948, the post
office was reopened in the present building, built by Andy
Rogers. There was an impressive ceremony. Mr. George G.
Rolfe, postal inspector of Sacramento, was on hand to dedicate the post office and administer the oath of office to Mrs,
Geneva Rogers, the new postmistress. A stage coach driven
by "Ned" Granholm with Frank
Fippin as shotgun, delivered the
first mail. Dignitaries came by
stage, by horse and buggy, and
even by the Twin Cities bus.
There was a full day of revelry
TAISEN
that, believe it or not, doesn't
register over $1.00. You can
bet he won't actually be using
it in the service station, It
was purchased for the Bennallack Grocery Store in 1913.
It has the elaborate cast bronze
face plate, all scrolls and curliques, which had become practically the company's trademark
until recently. Brownie was polishing it up to look pretty and
bolting it down so it wouldn't
wander off.

Mr. and Mrs, Frank O'Neal
have both been ill. They seem
to be recuperating nicely now.
It's good to have Mary back
to her usual joyous self. She
was quite concerned for her
husband for a few days. %*
In the spring "a young man's
fancy --"'. This happens to young
women, too, I missed the big
event when it happened to Miss
Judy K, Cleek of Hilaire Acres.
She became the bride of Archie
‘M. Cooper on April 20. They are
both members of the 1969 NUHS
graduating class. Judy works at
the rangers office in Nevada
City inher spare time. They have
been making their home in Grass
Valley. ape
David Seigfried was transferred from the San Diego Naval
Training Base to the Treasure
Island Base for extended training, David's elected field is electronics and he has done so well
with it that he may be able to
stay in the "Naval Training"
field. so his new base would
be Mare Island. So nice and
handy to home, his mother tells
me,
*
Mrs. Noreen Harwood has
been in Salt Lake City visiting
relatives and attending to some
business matters. Now that
school is out she will be joined
by her husband and youngest
son who plan to bring her home
with them. Cinthia Harwood who
was hurt in a night skiing accident last winter is still recuperating with unhappy broken
bones, and not able to make the
trip. Oldest son Terry Airman
lst Class is still at Nellis Air
Force Base out of Las Vegas,
Nevada,

Mr. and Mrs. Luther Hill
and their three children got
their beautiful new double trailer home (24 ft. by something or
other long) last Tuesday.
They live almost at the end of the
Wildwood Acres road, Mr. Hill

and plans a shop in the area in
the near future. At present, he
has set his equipment up at
home. The Hills are neighbors
of the Van Johnsons,

Also close neighbors are the
Harold Brown family of Concord, The Browns have four sons
but two have already flown the
nest. They started their new
home last weekend. While the
house is being built they are
camping in a big 15 x 35' tent,
The scenery there is beautiful,
There is swimming available
in a nearby lake, and Deer Creek
is close by for fishing, but 'm

Litter bag
needed
in summer
It's a good idea to carry a
litter bag in the automobile, especially now that picnic weather
is here," Lt, M. J, DeLay, commander of the Grass Valley area
of the California Highway Patrol
advises.
Two sections of the California
Vehicle Code prohibit throwing
things on highways, he said.
us 28112 ~=prohibits
throwing bottles, cans, garbage,
glass, paper, or any subject
likely to injure or damage traffic, or any offensive material
of any kind, while Section 23111
prohibits throwing lighted cigarettes, cigars, ashes or other
flame or glowing substance onto the highway. ;
"These laws are enforced, But
if drivers and passengers in vehicles use ash trays and keep
other litter in a bag we'll have
nothing to enforce, and that will
suit us just fine." —
The CHP commander also
noted that citizens can assist in
enforcing Section 23111 by reporting to the Department of Motor Vehicles the license number
of any motor vehicle from which
they see flaming or glowing
substances thrown, The Department of Motor Vehicles will
pass this information, together
with the name of the registered
owner of the vehicle, tothe State
Division of Forestry, who will
take appropriate action against
the violator.
