Because there is and has been no adequate water supply for such a building, the decision. was taken to use the fund, by now grown to a respectable sum, for restoration of the old church itself. Sale of pews, which may still be purchased, has added considerable to the fund. The restored Estey organ, a muralbehind the altar, and those pews which have been purchased, will be dedicated. Musical numbers will be performed by Leilani Greenly, Jake Dabis, Jan and d Susie Gabers, and Edith TSGT. JAMES R. NOWLIN, left, a member of Beale’s 9th Reconnaissance Haverty.

Fran and Oliver Milhous are at about the half-way mark on their long-planned motor coach tour of the United States;” in Virginia, to be exact. They should be home in about two weeks with some. interesting memories. I understand they met some relatives they hadn’t become acquainted with before. In the course of their travels they took in London Bridge, which as everybody knows has been transplanted toLake Havasu, Arizona. Yolanda Reader and her sister, Angie Briggs, left last week to visit relatives in Italy. They will be gone for three weeks or so; right now they are in Rome, seeing the sights. Their fater, Dominic Gilione, who is-now 85 years old, came'to this country about 60 years ago with his bride. After working in the East for several years, he made his way to California. He ranched in Amador County for a while, then came to Grass
Valley where he has resided off and on about 50 years. At one time he worked at Pete Andreotti’s sawmill at Hills Flat, now long gone, and was a miner at the Idaho-Maryland Mine. Mrs. Reader and her sister will not -need an interpreter to help them converse with their cousins as the are both fluent in Italian.
