In, the p;ist few years there have been a large number r.f the residents of l'lattsmouth migrating to the l'a cifie slope, where in the mild and pleasant climate they are enjoying life to the utmost, and these have located to a greater exttnt in and near Los Angeles. The former resi dents have kept alive the friendships and associations of the yars past by gatherings at their homes and re cently a very pleasant event of thi kind was held in honor of the tenth wedding anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. A. K. Quinn. Mrs. Quinn was for merly M;ss May Pat terson of this city and Mr. Quinn was for a time located in l'lattsmouth where lie was inter ested in the publication of the News Herald. The event was arranged by Mrs. l'.enjamin IOlson and was in the na ture of a surprise on the happy cou ple who were observing their tin wedding anniversary.. The occasion was spent in visiting and dicusing the many pleasant events of the by gone days when the members of the party were residents of the beautiful state of, Nebraska and many memories of the eld home town along the banks of the Missouri river wore brought to mind by the reminiscences of the members of the party. A wry de lightful two course luncheon was al so enjoyed by the guests of the eve ning. Mr. and Mrs. Quinn received many handsome gifts from their old friends.

Buyers Paris who wish to attend the national shoe and leather fair 'which is lning hold here are accommodated with a special service of aeroplanes from the French capital to this city. The present fair, which is the twenty-first, is the biggest yet held. There are over 4(o exhibitors but none from Germany and the depart ment of overseas trails is actively co operating with the liritish manufac turers in their endeavors to iind overseas market. In vi"W of the recent slump in the industry, says the American chamber of Commerce in London, commenting en the fair, much dissatisfaction is being expressed at the imports of German upper leather which is re ported to be arriving in large quan tities. Before- the war British factories on ly produced roughly 4 0 per cent of the glace kid used in Britain and i0 per cent of the box calf. During the war the industry was urged by the government to extend its plants sr that in the future Britain would be independent of foreign supplies. In consequence. factories and plants were extended so that more than 7f per cent of the requirements can be met from home manufactories and the dumping of German leather is therefore hitting the British tan ning trade very hard.
