The reason that the layered pane does not display anything is that it
is not supposed to.  It is simply a container for holding other
components.

The reason that the labels do not display is because nothing has set
their sizes, so they all have a size of [0,0].  The layered pane does
not manage the bounds for the components that it contains, so you have
to provide the code to do that.

If you add the following code, you will see the labels.

   lb.setSize( lb.getPreferredSize() );
   lb2.setSize( lb2.getPreferredSize() );
   lb2.setLocation( 0, 20 );
