NOTES.

The Iowa Journal of History and Politics for July reports that "the marking of the famous Oregon Trail through Nebraska is planned as a work of co-operation between the Daughters of the American Revolution and the Nebraska State Historical Society. It is hoped that this excellent idea may be carried to a successful conclusion."


The project of a Lincoln Memorial Highway extending from the national capital to Gettysburg is being strongly advocated. Congressman Theodore E. Burton ardently champions the idea in a recent number of the Review of Reviews. It would be most fortunate to have the American people turn to the building of great highways as memorials. A transcontinental highway on the line of the Oregon Trail as a memorial for the Oregon pioneers would be then inevitable.


The State convention of teachers held in June at Eugene was greatly pleased with the announcement that the State Historical Society had in preparation a series of history leaflets for the schools. They appreciate the aid these will be in making more real the words of their regular texts. QUARTERLY OF THB OREGON HISTORICAL SOCIETY No. 3, Vol. 8, September, 1907. Thwnas M.
