HIGH COURT SAYS
PULSION LEGE
Alfred I). Smith of Uox Uutte Sued
for Damages Rut Gets Nothing
Except Hot Roast
Alfred D. Smith, twelve-year-old
boy who sued members of the school
board of district No. 30, Box Butte
county and two or three school pat
rons, for $2,500 damages because he
was expelled from school, gets Just
what he got In the district court-
nothing except a hot roast. The su
preme court has affirmed tae Judg
ment of the lower court which was
la faror of the defendants.
The suit was filed in the name of
Miss Charlotte C. Worley, legal guar
dian of the Smith boy. Theodore
Johnson and thers were defendants.
rne testimony anowea mat me teacu-
r of tae school. Miss Uhrlg. desired
to resign because she was having
trouble with Alfred Smith and his
brother, Earl. The school board In
vited patrons to attend a meeting for
discussion of a proposal to expel Al
fred. At this meeting tne patrons,
with the exception cf one relative of
the boy, voted for expulsion. The
board later held a meeting and de
elded to expel the youth. No record
was kept of this meeting and its leg
ality was questioned. Tae court
holds the expulsion legal.
The boy was charged with using
vile and profane language, and writ
lug obscene notes to young girls in
the school. His attorney alleged the
expulsion deprived the boy of lus
constitutional rights, that of free i'.
struct ion In the common schoo1. On
that subject Judge J. R. Dean, who
wrolif the opinion of tho supremo
court, said:
"It will not be seriously contended
taat the fundamental law contem
plates the attendance at a oublic
school of any pupil who by reason of
contumacious conduct will not avail
himself of the opportunity of free
Instruction there offered to the youth
of the state. If plaintiff school
mates told the truth, and evidently
the Jury believed them, his conduct
was such that his attendance and
ni8 presence among taem was not
only a hindrance to their, advance
ment but was as well a positive men
ace to the morals and to the safety
of pupila who attended the school to
avail themselves of the instruction
that in guaranteed by Ih t cous'itu
tion."

NEW R.R. YARDS
FORJRIDGEPORT!
Work has begun on the extensive
switch tracks that are a part of the
Burlington's plan for enlargement of
the yards at Bridgeport, and the dirt
is moving at as lively a rate as is'
possible with the use of teams of
horses, says the Bayard Farmers
Exchange. The horse power will be
used for only a short time, it being
necessary to grade the first track
with teams so that rails can be laid
for a steam saovel. As soon as the
steam shovel can be put in opera
tion the soil can be moved faster and
cheaper.
The plans for ultimate construc
tion of trackage in the Bridgeport
yards call for fifteen switch tracks
about a mile and a half long each.
The work will be done in install
ments, the first installment being
three tracks tor the full lengtTf of
the new yards. The contract tci
these tracks is being performed by
Cunningham & Monahan of Denver,
under tae direction of Engineer E.
F. Hamilton, of the Burlington,
whose headquarters are at Alliance.
Mr .Hamilton has been in Bridge
port this week looking after the
work that is being started.
The camp of the contractors is lo
cated about a mile east of the round
house, and the first grading is being
done near the camp. The east end
of the new yards will be about a mile
an da half east of the round house,
wit a the west end at the round house.
The yard will be what is called a
"flat" yard, instead of a "hump"
yard, the latter designation mean
ing a yard that has a raised place,
or "hump" at one end, so arranged
that cars can be pushed over the
"hump" and will then roll by gravity
to the other end of the yard. It is
claimed that "hump" yards are be
ing found unsatisfactory in general
operation, and are being taken out
at places and being replaced by
"flat" yards.
About 30,000 yards of earth will
be' moved by Cunningaam & Mona
han in this initial contract. That
this signifies largely increased rail
road activities at Bridgeport cannot
be doubted.

Discreet and economical heads of
families will now begin to rave about
the beauty and charm of the women
in bungalow aprons.
Jewelers report a heavy demand
for diamonds. How else may one dis
play the fact that he is a prosperous
mechanic unless he wears gems on
his fingers?
