The Liberal Arts Commission
receivedacontribution of
$190. 00 for the Opera House
from Laurel Parlor #56, Native
Daughters of the Golden West,
This money was for individual
snemberships, but since they
go over $190, 90 the organiz~Ztion requested that their name
be placed on a seat.
This has not been the policy
of the Liberal Arts Commission
in the past, but the general
membership meeting immediately voted to make itso in the
future. This should be good
pews for all organizations. If
you can sign up allyour members, you too may request a
seat in your name.
The policy concerning all
donations was clarified to mean
that anyone sending in a minimum of $2.00 would receive
a membership, even though the

Leukemia Still
Top Cancer
Aim
Among the many kinds of
cancer now being attacked on
a large scale by scientific research, leukemia is still the
toughest with which to deal.
However, Many scientists believe that when the mystery of
leukemiais solved, most of the
cancer problem may be solved
right along with it.
According to the American
Cancer Society no cure of preventative has yet been found.
Some drugs and combinations
of drugs have been used with
Varying degrees of success.
They sometimes arrest the disease for atime, but not permanently.
As of September 1, 1966,
sixty-four of the American Cancer Society‘s active research
grams. totaling morethan
$2, 000,000 were directly or
indirectly concermed with
solving the leukemia problem,
It is estimated that 4, 800
American children under the
age of 15 will die of cancer,
half of them succumbing to
leukemia, which destroys
bloodforming tissae.
Viruses have been implicated
im some forms of animal lexkemia, but to date they have
is buman leukemia.
Local volunteers are stillin
the midst of their annual edzCrusade.

Mrs, Etta Ettleman, former postmistress at Bough and Ready,
entered Sierra Memorial Hospital last Sunday for tests and observation, Mr, Ettleman just got home from there about three weeks
ago, Etta has had more than her share of illness in recent years;
we hope this trip will prove to be routine,
On May 19th a small private wedding at the Little Rough and
Ready Chapel proved more exciting than usual.
The bride was Miss Karen Rayburn of Sutter, California. Miss
Rayburn was accompanied by her parents, The groom, Mr. Leland
Nelson, had been away inthe service ofhis country for three years.
When the groom's mother and father received the wedding announcement in Kerrick, Minnesota, they hurriedly gathered the
“family, six younger brothers and sisters, and arrived just in time
for the wedding, They were seated inthe Chapel without the knowledge of the bride and groom, :
As the young couple left the Chapel after the ceremony, the
groom, in the proverbial state of shock, had eyes only for his new
bride, His father stepped into the aisle in front of them, and the
happy reunion that followed had everyone in tears including the
new bride,
Over the week-end, members of the Lake Merritt and Grass
Valley Kiwanis Clubs were guests of the Bert Spaites. Lake Merritt
was the home club of Dr. Spaite before he retired to our community. Five Rough and Ready couples were among the Grass Valley
group present, and fifteen couples came from Lake Merritt.
Some of the early arrivals enjoyed golf on Saturday afternoon.
After an altitude adjustment hour at the Spaite’s, Steak Dinnerbroit your own over the coals stylewas served in a nei i
garden, A tour of the mines was arranged for Sunday at 1-00 p.m.
Starting at the Empire Mine.
Dr. Spaite described the Kiwanis Club as a community service
group, not “just for fun” as it seemed Saturday night. The latest
project of the local group isthe beautiful Church Roster which you
can see on the Auburn Highway as you enter Grass Yalley. Among
the guests in the Lake Merritt group was Marshall MacDonald who
was most active in the restoration of the old Mother Lode town of
Columbia. This restoration is a very worthwhile comtribution to
history and a service to the community and the nation.
