Gold Centennial Celebration

COLUMBIA, Calif., July 19.
(B Columbia was the "gem of
the southern (mother lode gold)
mines" 100 years ago. Colum
bians thought Its centennial cele
bration would produce gold, too.
Instead, they reaped only severe
financial pains.
Only a few thousand visitors
came for a three-day weekend
celebration (of "Columbia, the

nla's 1949 centennial schedule.
Officials had predicted 80,000.
Some Columbians blamed the
heat 108 degrees for the disin
terest. Others cited a rule prevent
ing visitors driving into this lit
tle town, 140 miles northwest of
San Francisco. Free bus service
was provided from a 23-acre park
ing field a mile out
Anyhow, this was the way
and it's painfully typical once
enthusiastic Columbians yester
day toted up their deficits:
Tuolumne lodge No. 21, I. O.
O. F., spent $1,600 on booths and
refreshments. E. A. Danicourt
said "we will be lucky if we took
in enough to pay the help."
Mrs. George Burghardt I-.llled
100 chickens and 18 ducks, hop
ing to sell 250 box lunches. She
sold about 20.
Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Harthorne
prepared to sell 3,000 hot dogs.
They sold less than 200. That
meant 2,800 buns left, too.
"We'll be eating bread pudding
until Christmas," Mrs. Harthorne
moaned.
The Sonora Elks lodge stocked
500 cases of beer; sold about 25.
The Junior Aronas, a group of
high school girls, spent $400 to
stock a booth; lost virtually all
of it.
Mrs. U. K. Peterson, their spon
sor, summed it up this way:
'There is something wrong
here that we don't know about.
There is something twisted about
the world today and we Just don't
know what it is,

NSU Policies
Must Be Renewed,
Vets Reminded
Oregon veterans are reminded
that National Service Life Insur
ance policies must be renewed, or
converted to a. permanent Insur
ance plan.
The Veterans administration Is
now sending out notices of ex
piration to some veterans In the
area. Policies issued before Jan
uary 1, 1946, expire eight years
from date' of issue. Those issued
after that date expire In five
years.
All term policies may be re
newed for an additional .five
years, as provided by law. Vet
erans must fill out a renewal
application form and mail it to
the VA before the expiration of
their policies. The first premium
payment must also accompany
the application. , .
Premiums will be slightly high
er than on the previous policy
since they are based on the age
of the veteran at the time of re
newal. No physical examination
is necessary except in cases where
the policy has been lapsed for
a longer period than three
months.
Veterans who wish to convert
their policies to permanent in
surance .will find six standard
plans available. They are: Ordi
nary life, 20-pay life, 30-pay life,
