Roaring Camp was the noisiest gold-mining town in 19th century California. More than 1000 men from every part of the US had come to that little camp, stopping for a short time on their way to get rich. The noise made by these rough, violent men gave the camp its name. Deaths were not unusual there, but a birth was big news. And one sunny morning, a baby came to Roaring Camp. In “the Luck of Roaring Camp”, Bret Harte tells this story of a baby among the miners, on Saturday, Jan, 25.
●Four times each year, a major event occurs that affects everyone’s life in some way—the season’s change. On December 21, spring turns into summer in the Southern Hemisphere and, in the North Hemisphere （which includes the United States）, autumn becomes winter. For some, winter is a time of joy, for others it’s a dreaded season filled with short, cold, gray days. On Saturday, December 21, Weekend shares an American winter-or at least some perspective on it. We talk with a psychologist about how seasonal changes affect people, with some school children about what winter means to them, and with Ken Bader about winter sports-from snow skiing in Colorado to water skiing in Florida.
