Fath er Shine worked on this with Dr. A. E. Sheldon of Lincoln and others, and out of it came an authentically documented narrative of the progress of the ill-fated expedition undertaken by the Spanish authorities to expl French intruders from what was then regarded a3 Spanish territory.

Mr. Vallery has been using the harness of the tanning company for several years and finds that they fill the bill and wear like the rock of Gibraltar in the hardest kind of work. This make of harness has been used in the heavy pulling cf his work and in every case the harness has stood up in fine shape and has led Mr. Vallery to give expression cf his appreciation of the service to the company. The slogan of the Omaha Tan ning Co., is "Harness Bill Build3 Harness" and Mr. Vallery states that this is the real truth and their har ness is the best in the world.

Mr. Eisenberg has in the last few years largely devoted his work to the preparation of orchestrations and ar rangements of musical scores and is the representative of the Dalby Music Co., of Omaha and the Fred Jewell Publishing company of Indiana. The Iowa composer has prepared orchestration of the song "Nebras ka" which was written by B. A. Rosencrans of this city and which has made a real hit where it ha3 been played and sung. The song of Mr. Rosencrans has what has been lacking in other slogan songs, in that it is snappy and has a melody that is easy to sing and should be very popular in gatherings where a state slogan song is used. It has the pep and snap that has made the Iowa Corn Song famous and when the resi dents of Nebraska hear the strains of "Nebraska" that Mr. Rosencrans has prepared they will take it up and w-histle and sing the praises of the best old state that I have found."
