Uaaaaa Is rentpllaaeaied. He complimented Omaha on tho numer ous pretty electrical signs here and de clared that Omaha was distinguished among cities for these. This civ greatly excelled Lincoln In artistic designs, while Lincoln surpassed Omaha in outline light ing, he said. W. B. Byrne also read a paper on "Dis play or Sign Lighting." It. C. .Edwards of the National Electric Lamp association of Cleveland concluded the program with a paper on ' Domination." The officers of the Nebraska Electrical association as re-elected . are: H, A.
