Mr, Walker's ode follows: Nebraska. The star-spangled banner would not wave so_proudly, All o'er this great nation, the home of the brave; Or would her great guns seem to thunder #0_loudly, In tond n‘:‘l{"‘on, o'er a brave soldier's e, of Nebraska did not shine so From the folds of that banner, our un- tainted Tflag: ‘Which floats .fl-om the housetops and flag-p..es so justly, And streams in like manner from mountain and crag.

Denny, better known as “Den,” #cenic artist at the Krug theater, is an Iowa product, having been raised in Linn two paintings in the Gibson Traveling Art collection, which was shown through lowa. One of the can- i didn’t show up. it was back in 1808 and Dixon was on one of the ships that made the voyage around the world in the fleet. In due time the “beef boat,” or supply ship, Culgoa was dispatched from New York laden with the stuff for the Christ- mas dinners on Uncle S8am's ships—hun- dreds and hundreds of turkeys, barrely and barrels of eranberries, tons and tons of potatoés and all the rest of it. Uncle Sam’'s hollday 'dinners are famous and fine. . The Culgoa was a bit late in meeting the ship Dixon, and just as it was about to meet it the Messina earthquake hap- pened. Nearly 200,000 people lost their lives in that catastrophe and thousands were made homeless and destitute, An order was flashed from Washing- ton to the “'beet boat" to make full speed for the stricken district and unload its refrigerators and holda for the benefit of the people. Which was done and there was no tur- key on board the ships at holiday time. But another “besf boat” was dispatched as soon as possible and the turkeys ar- rived and Christmas and New Year's dinners were served up a little later.
