and barn were disposed of at auction in October the late John R. 'McNamara purchased the barn with the privilege of removal and had cellar dug and foundation built for it in Slater ave- nue. His unexpected death occurred before the barn had been moved. but the foundation was ready for it and previous to the injunction which was signed on Tuesday the work of moving the building was started by Messrs Woodmansee and Carlo for Mrs. Me Namara. The work must now be held up or another route taken to get the barn to, the desired location.
 The barn was located on Cedar street and to get 1t to the desired location on the south side of Slater avenue, adjoin- ing the McNamara residence, an at tempt had been made to cross the Cal lahan property. and, as 1t is claimed remove several trees. The barn is one story and half and the taking of it across the Callahan property would make the moving much easier and more direct. MT. Callahan objects to having his trees cut down and it is possible that the building will have to go around by the roadway.

our National Hymn.

OMAHA, Dec. 22.-To the Editor of The
Bee: l noticed during the recent Corn ex-
position that whenever the Mexican band
played the air America, My Country IT'S
Of Thee the audience invariably rose 60
its feet to express their patriotism. This
was especially the case among the school
children and teachers and while it is most
c~ommendable to show patriotism, it is a
little discouraging to think that In all that
vast audience there were apparently so few
who knew that the national hymn is the
Star Spangled Banner"
With the flag raising ceremony at the
public schools and with patriotism taught
as strongly as 1t is we really as a people
ought to begin to learn that the Star
Spangled Banner is the national hymn of
America. If we are going to stand up, let
us stand up when the band plays the star
Spangled Banner" 1t must seem ridiculous
to an Englishman, for instance, to nave
an American audience rise to it's feet when
the national hymn of England, God save
the king, is played because the tuneNis the
same as America, MY Country IT'S of
Thee"
l was surprised to learn that so intelligen
a man as the Hon. William Jennings Bryan
in speaking at the banquet recently given
to the Japanese commissioners told how
deeply he was touched when a lot of chill
dren sang for him in Japan our national
anthem America, MY Country IT'S OF
Thee" and Mr.. Bryan and his children
jolred IN singing our national hymn. Really
he ought to know better.
l DO not know of a more widespread
delusion than this mistaken idea, which is
a reflection on the Intelligence of our
people. f.. i, HALLER.
