Head of the family sits with sons and daughters. In this case the wife was dead, so her photo* graph “posed.” Objects of pride—horses, even a sewing machine —were brought out for the occasion, while in the background we see the hired men. A portrait of today’s Nebraska would necessarily include its vigilance against unwise tavern operation.
