the very best counties in the state

o. the glories of Nebraska! With her
fields of waving grain;
With their promises of plenty meath
the summer sun and rain.
Ripping wheat fast turningyellow for
the harvest soon to be:
Rustling cornblades in the breezes
making sweetest melody:
Beloved fields of scented alfalfa cul
ing meath the skies of blue:
Sunny slopes. and shaded valleys with
the clear streams ripping thru
Over all is peace and comfort, not Il
trace of sorrows pail.
And to live in old Nebraska is the
greatest JOY of all
O! the glories of Nebraska Far abroad
her stores are spread
From the measure of her harvests are
the distant nations fed.
Here within her wide dominions,
wrought from stretch of desert
lands.
Is the greatest work of progress ever
wrought by human hands:
Here, within a generation, we have
buiided, strong and great,
On deep and sure foundation, pro.
gressive, happy state.
And at even, resting, list'ning to the
children's laughing call
Say, just living in Nebraska is the
greatest JOY of all!
o, the glories of Nebraska. Like an
Eden Garden spread
Filled with natures fruits and flowers,
and blue sky overhead.
Like that Land of Milk and Honey
that the lsraelitish spies
Said spread out across old Jordan to
delight their wopd'ring eyes
Like old Caanan seen by Moses as he
viewed the landscape Ger,
With that country's richest treasures
laid before him-and some more.
o, there's lots of JOY in living where
the streams of plenty flow,
And to live in old Nebraska is the
greatest man may know
o, the glories of Nebraska! Sing her
praises full and free
Wondrous past that's but the promise
of the greatness yet to be;
Pouring forth her wealth of products
as from Plenty's Golden Horn,
Filling all the worlds storehouses with
her crops of wheat and corn
Spread between the mighty river and
the mountains of the west,
Fairest land ipNull creation, by the
God of Bounty blest.
And from rose of early dawning till
the long, gray shadows fall
Just TO live in Old Nebraska is the

concluded-the soldiers
before him were becoming infeebled

knew not how many of these soldiers
death would claim ere another year
