ui me memDers ot tne excursion.
First In Six Years.
The trip is the first excursion in
six years. Because of the .war and
the generally: unsettled', conditions,
it had been postponed".' ' It is f felt
that the present time is peculiarly
mica ior sucn an anair. The un
settled conditions have made after-
the-war business conditions hesitant
and uncertain. A trip, such as is
bsing planned, will go a Ion wavi
towards stabilising conditions,' it it
sato. .
Those heading the excursion de
, clare that after the trip is , com
pleted the world will know 'that
Omaha is in the race for business
and commercial supremacy to stay.
Omaha, its advantages and possi
bilities, will be thoroughly adver
tised. About 30,000 Omaha book
lets, containing facts pertaining to
this city, will be distributed at the
various stopping places. The. .same
number of balloons, all bearing the
legend "Omaha, the Market Town,"
will be given to children on the
way.
Wear White Hats.
All the delegates will be arrayed
in white felt hats, the bands of
which 'will ' carry the Ak-Sar-Ben
colors. They will wear Omaha arm
bands and carry umbrellas each
bearing the name of the firm they
represent. ' : .i :
With the delegates will go Dan
Desdune's band of 25 pieces in a
separate car. A whole car will be
; devoted to Omaha .souvenirs.
For the past'week those who ares
departing on the itinerary have been
rehearsing Omaha , songs prepared
and edited by Robert H. Manley,
commissioner. The city will be con
siderably advertised in this manner,
it is believed.
According to W. A. Ellis, who
will represent the Chamber of Com
merce and the Omaha Hay ' ex
change on this trip, . no more en
thusiastic group of men were ever
assembled. They Willi accomplish
everything they se puj ,tOHdey Is his
belief. : 'J'fk'J',
. "We wish to showC ihbsfr'.Kyirig:
near and about Omaha that we are
interested in them,! stated Mr, Ellis.
Prepare for Party.
Nearly every community which
the delegation intends to visit has
made special preparation to receive
it. Commercial organizations at the
various points have requested those
heading the delegates to arrange
for a longer stay at these points,
but tljie itinerary as now outlined
will be strictly adhered to.
The delegation will return to this
city next Saturday.
