It Happened Id NEBRASKA
A frontier “family portrait” was a serious thing. Here is a typical
family grouping for the Big Event. 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. A continuing
educational campaign by the brewing in
dustry keeps taverns operating openly,
cleanly, and in conformity with the law.
