      Louis H. Neble was born in Omaha, on the 16th of January, 1890, and is a son of Hans P. Neble, who has long been one of the sterling and honored citizens of Omaha, with the civic and business affairs of which city he and two of his brothers have been prominently identified. Hans P. Neble was born and reared in Denmark, whence he came to the United States and established his residence in Omaha in 1886, he having here continued his home during the long intervening years. He became associated with his brother Sophus in the purchase of the plant and business of the Danish Pioneer, which was here founded in 1872, by Mark Hansen, who was one of the honored Danish pioneers of Nebraska. The Neble brothers thus secured control of the Danish Pioneer in the year 1877, and they have continued to be associated in the ownership and publishing of this excellent weekly paper to the present time, though by reason of impaired health Hans P. Neble has recently withdrawn from the active service that had long been his portion and assigned the management of the business to Louis H. Neble, the immediate subject of this review. A third brother, John L., likewise became connected with the Danish Pioneer, with which he continued his alliance until his death, March 24, 1926, he having served for several years as a member of the Omaha Park Commission.
            Louis H. Neble is a loyal and appreciative citizen of Omaha, where he has continuously maintained his home from the time of his birth to the present and where he is effectively upholding the civic and business prestige of the family name. He was graduated from the Central High School as a member of the class of 1907, and had been a prominent and popular figure in the athletics of the school, especially as a member of its baseball team. After completing his high school course Mr. Neble served a four years' apprenticeship to the jeweler's trade, but this work so affected his vision that he had to abandon the trade. He thus, in 1911, became actively associated with the Danish Pioneer, where he gained practical experience in virtually all departments and details of the business and eventually won advancement to his present offices of vice president, manager and treasurer of the Sophus F. Neble Publishing Company.  Mr. Neble was president of the Danish Brotherhood Bowling League in his native city, and has the further distinction of being president of the Nebraska State Bowling League, also president of the Omaha City Bowling Association, preferments that stand in evidence of his skill in the manipulations of the balls and pins and also indicate his personal popularity in bowling circles. In 1925 Mr. Neble made the highest score in the Danish Bowling League, his best score having been 297 and he having made eleven consecutive strikes on the occasion of his gaining the highest score of the local league. He is an active member of the Omaha Chamber of Commerce, the Ak-Sar-Ben, the Danish Brotherhood, the Omaha Danish Association, and the Council Bluffs Country Club, at the links of which he finds seasonable indulgence in golf. He is a democrat in his political proclivities, and he and his wife are communicants of the Danish Lutheran Church. October 29, 1915, marked the marriage of Mr. Neble and Miss Helen Rossen, who was born and reared in Omaha and whose parents were born in Denmark. Mr. and Mrs. Neble have no children. Mr. Neble was formerly drum-major of the crack band of the Fourth Infantry Regiment of the Nebraska National Guard, and for fifteen years he was the successful and popular leader of the Neble Concert Orchestra. He is a talented musician, and is able to play effectively a large number of varied musical instruments. He has thus been a prominent figure in musical circles in his native city, and takes deep interest in all that tends to advance the “divine art” in his home community.
