It-weems to happen mostly on weekends, For the rates we pay, I think we’re entitled to better service. I also think direct dialing, at least to Nevada City and Grass Valley, is not too much to ask for in this day and age. Rural resijents orobably depend on their telephones more than any other group, and when an emergency arises, as it does frequently, a dead phone is too much, And trying to get out a news column without a phone is ridiculous, but I’1l try, Dear Cecile Wilson has returned from her annual Southern California stay, and found her house completely redecorated and refurnished, courtesy of her daughter Edith Haverty. Now that she’s back, we can all breathe easier . She Stays away too long. Visiting Mr. and Mrs. Gene Stuart over the weekend were Mr, and Mrs, Jim Baker of Fair Oaks, and their family. Opening of fishing season was the occasion. The men of the group hiked down to the river to a spot known only to Gene Stuart, I guess, and came back with ‘limits of trout. It takes a dedicated fisherman with plenty of physical stamina to go down into some of those rugged canyons just to catch fish. Then there is the return trip, straight up. My admiration knows no bounds. I know that some of our local people attended the Penn Valley GV Elks win ritual contest The ritualistic team of Grass Valley Lodge No. 538, B, P.O. Elks, won the North Central District championship yesterday in Sacramento. Placerville Lodge was second and Nevada City Lodge third in the 14-lodge contest. The local team also won four individual first places and three seconds, The first place winners were Ben Swartz, exalted ruler; Leon Ferguson, lecturing knight; Verle Mcintosh, chaplain; and Clarence Bennett, inner guard. The victory qualifies the Grass Valley team for the state contest the week of May 15 at the California Elks Convention in San Diego. Rodeo, and I know that Calvin Milhous took horses down, but that is all I know, due to that pesky telephone. If any awards were won I’ll report on that next week. Since I seem to be complaining a lot today, I might as well take up another matter that bothers me to noend, Every spring, county crews go up and down our roadways spraying something lethal on the vegetation bordering same. Then they go away, and the stuff dies. This is okay, and I understand to some extent their reasons for getting rid of it. But they never come back to clear away the dead brush, There it is, just waiting for some careless wayfarer to toss away a lit cigarette, and start a holocaust. That beautiful nuisance, scotch broom, is known to be a fire hazard even while green. Standing gray and dead by the roadside, it is definitely an invitation to disaster.
