That Rumble Is Musical A new air of confidence, lacking for the past 10 years, has returned to America with an impact that should awaken most small communities to the fact that ex cellent possibilities lie ahead. Passing from the national scene is the fear that a •‘bust” will leave little more than legal documents for those who invested inflated dollars in businesses and homes that still carry mortages It is apparent that in dividuals and business firms are taking a second look at the economic picture and are again investing with money that has been lying idle or drawing small inter est rates. More large and small businesses are expanding to keep up with population growth and they are shov ing aside the fear that it might be dangerous to spend borrowed money. New businesses are venturing into the field, but in most instances there is planning and experience behind the ventures to reduce chances of high fatality rate of the plungers who cropped out immediately after World War II. Fortunately, there are no indications of a “ boom" in this locality, although expectations of a healthy growth in population and business are present in almost every quarter. Probably more than any other town in this area, Nyssa is prepared for any eventuality—good or bad— with emphasis on the good. A new water system will allow the town to quadruple in size, long-range street improvement plans will keep pace with expected growth and school expansion is geared to normal population increases of the community with little or no danger of stripping the gears in the event of an unexpected influx o f new people. These plans for the future have been made without back-breaking financial obligations on the part of exist ing taxpayers. The drastic changes you will see within the next five years are starting now.
