The story of the early pioneers in their struggle with the Indians and the forces of nature, the gradual development of the country in mining, geology and human relations will be graphically depicted. Some of the bureaus to be portrayed are the Indiana bureau. Reclamation, National Parks Service Geological Survey, Bureau of Mines and the Grazing Division. The paintings, illustrating the hardships of the men and women who blazed the trail across the continent, will be hung above the cases containing the sculptured exhibits. Among these illustrations, painted by Wilfred Bronson, are "The Covered Wagon" and other scenes depicting the lives of the pioneers and their struggle for existence. The miniature sculptures, made from plaster of Paris and skillfully painted from realistic effect, are being prepared by Rosario Fiori, Basil E. Martin, Albert McClure, Donald M.
