PUBLISHERS ASSOCIATION By Fay M. Dunbar The departure of Mrs. Marguerite DeBow from her home here in Rough and Ready, as reported in our local news last week, was grossly exaggerated. Living alone, so far from family and ‘friends, had convinced Marguerite that making her permanent home here was not practical and she was preparing to put this home on the market. It will be some time however before she will be moving to the new one she has selected in Rheem Valley. When I read that bit in the paper I thought “well old thing you’ve done it again” mixed things up I mean! So, it was with special relief that I heard Marguerite calling her pets the next morning. She lives on the hill just back of us and, tho’ we don’t visit often, we keep in touch. She can see me when I step outside in my bathrobe for wood and, due to the idiosyncrasies of this funny valley we live in, I can hear her when she calls her pets. Rheem Valley is in Contra Costa County somewhere between Orinda and Lafayette. If you’re not familiar with that part of the country just call it the Bay Area. You won’t be too far wrong.
Marguerite’s son lives in Orinda, her daughter in Oakland, and she has a brother and many friends at Lake Merritt so it will be like going home for her. She has been a kind and thoughful neighbor to all of us. It was difficult being alone and equally difficult arranging to have some of her family always with her. This time she has selected a condominium type home. Guests had been invited for the Monday following the week the story broke about her leaving. Marguerite found it hard to believe that guests would believe she could be so thoughtless but she has had half dozen calls asking if they were still invited. One hazard of news reporting. We seem to be losing all our nice neighbors lately. The new ones we gain in their place will be nice, too. Mrs. Mary Parry, who .lost her husband recently, found just the right place for her to take care of and moved last week. If you _ want to let her know how much we miss her you can write her at 1404 Bancroft-Yuba City 95991. Her new home is close to markets services, no hills to climb, and on a direct route, thru Woodland, to her daughter and grandchildren. She thinks it will be just right. Our new neighbors, there, are from the Lake Tahoe area. They are retired and Abbott is interested in the late Phillip Parry’s big shop. It should prove an advantageous move for both families. Mr. and Mrs. Patrick Valeriani are the new neighbors at The Country Store and service station. Now there is a name to fit right in with the Irish and Italian background of our area! The Valerianis are from Los Alamitos near Long Beach in Southern California and are here to get away from the crosed city. They moved in last week almost in that snow storm. For a time they were a little doubtful about our weather. They have three children. Patrice is 15 and is attending NUHS. Gary is 19 and for a time will helphis dad in the service station. Donna McCloud is 22 and has taken the downstairs apartment to be near mother until the arrival of the new baby in May. Mrs. Janet Valeriani will take over Mary Ann’s place in the Country Store. e . fel God Abner, QNDS Savings BT eve ss "Ro: ae 273-2934 Miss Visantha Gage has been visiting Grandmother Baer (no pun intended) this past week. She has a brand new baby brother at home in Fairfield. Mother and baby are doing nicely but apparently Visantha took a bit too much of the new mother’s time so grandmother’s home provided the waiting period. Tom and Jerry have been added to our barn roster. They are twin babies born to Bathsheba last Monday just too late for the column. Our lambs are usually born in a snow storm but these were a couple of days off schedule. They made the rain storm instead. These are the last of our lambs for this year. Didn’t lose a one this season. We have 7 babies with 4 mothers. The very first one, little Chiquita, is young and only had one baby. Josephine and Cutie Pie both presented us with twins. My neighbor, Mrs. Esther Bixler, says the hill pasture is black with little lambs scampering around. I have a feeling Esther, who raises calves, would like them better. We are hoping to please her very soon. Cissy was expected to give us one last Friday. Speaking of birthdays! Mrs. Sue Fay had one on Saturday March 24. Sue is an R.N. at Nevada General. In her spare time she takes care of daughter, Pam and a good sized house * and garden. Circle your calendars for April 6 and 7.from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. The Grange ladies are having their spring rummage sale at the hall. Everyone dig into your closets for the big exchange. Chairperson Conne Baer tells me specials this time will be a “bunch of chairs, upholstered, rather unique” and a “bunch of those new painted T shirts that proved to popular with the kids before.” Our Grange ladies always come up with a nice sale. On April 7 the rummage sale workers are planning a sit down luncheon together. They also planto raise the flag of the Great Republic of Rough and Ready over our fair community for the annual celebration of our secession from the Union way back on April 7, 1850. Mrs. Alice Licht is preparing a bit of a . celebration for the occasion. Also circle April 5. The Nevada County Historical Society will hold its regular program at 8 p.m. in‘ the Veterans Hall in Nevada City. Coffee at 7:30 p.m. Speaker this time will be Vince Gianelli of Auburn. He will Show pictures of Hydraulic Mining. Mr. Gianelli was born Feb. 2, 1886 near Marysville. He started his mining career at Juneau Alaska as a~mucker. He studied electrical, engineering and mining at Oregon State University, did further studies at the University of Arizona, attained his master in geology and engineering at ‘the University of Nevada, did graduate work at Yale and Columbia and obtained his PhD at Columbia. Besides having worked in many mines and in every job up the scale from mucker, he taught engineering at the University of Nevada for 29 years. Mrs. Louise Dudley of French Corral will be the hostess for the evening ably assisted by Gwen Anderson, Florence Kelly, and Edna Henry. It’s going to be an interesting evening. Everyone, is welcome. =a
