Supt. Tout Issued tho following bul
lottn Tuesday:
That pupils in high schools do not
get onough refreshing sleep is evi
dent to tha teachers on many occa
sions. Pupils occasionally go to
sloop ot their study desks; thoy show
by thoir carriage, posture, eyes and
yawns that thoy nro sleepy. They
toll stories boasting of how' little thoy
sleep. They claim they do Jiot have
time to study out of school and do the
other things they want to do unloss
thoy, stay up too late. After studying
tho mutter for months, the teachors
of Senior and Junior high schools
adopted the following recommenda
tions to parents, pupils and touchers,
looking to more regular and eft'iclont
sloeip of high school pupils:
1. We accent tho.nlmost unanimous
opinion of our atrtHo'qtles that pupils
of Junior high schobl'ngo need regu
larly not loss than lilno hours sleep
and that those of Senior high school
ago need at least eight hours dally.
l'lils Is the minimum.
2. We boliove that this slebp
should begin rather early and that It
should be proceeded by a period of
quiet. To this end tho teachers do not
ordinarily endorse any school, social
or other activity which keeps tho pu
pils away from homo later than nine
o'clock on a school night.
II. High school pupils or teacher
should never attend tho second picture
show on a school night.
i. 'lo bo healthful and refreshing
the sleeping of overy-child should bo
done during every night of tho year
in a room having one or more open
windows.
NOTE By school nights wo mean
those which precedo school day,
namely, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday
and Thursday and in most cases Sun
day. There is no sense in providing
flho buildings, qualified teachers and
idequato equipment for boys nnd girls
who are almost asleep during the
hours when they arc in school.
Basket liaTl Tonight
A double-hender basket ball game
will be played at tho Franklin audi
torium this evening between the boys
and girls teams of tho Garden high
school at Oshkosh and the local teams.
Tho "first game will start at seven-
ithirty.
::o::
'Kngagcd by Wednesday."
Work on this play to bo given short
ly by tho Nicafigeo Camp Fire girls is
progressing splendidly. It depicts a
page from the lives of two young peo
ple in which an aunt and a mother
figure strongly. And when all is said
nnd done, what is more interesting
than the life of young people. The
girls arc sparing no cxpenso or effort
to make it ono of the best entertain
ments ever staged in North Platte.
Watch for the date and the place.
Chiros'SeilK Out.
Haunted by tho remembrance of the
two officers. lying dead on the lloor
of his store and the Moxlcan ho shot,
coupled with tho fact that he has been
"marked" by friends of tho Moxlcan
whom ho shot, Nick Chiros, tho Greek
groceryman on Front street, has sold
his store to two of his countrymen,
Nick Papandru and Harry Karras, and
will leave town. Nick says that as
long as ho remains in North Platte ho
cannot erase from his mind tho inci
dents of that awful ovening.

Flu Cases in Town.
Physicians roport tho existence of

number to demonstrate that it Is here.
Ono physician reports six cases in one
family, tho regular nose bleeding
kind, while other physicians say, thoy
aro treating several cases each. The
first case of a school attendant to be
kept out on account of flu was report
ed Tuesday. Many children nro out of
school, howover, on account of scar
let fever, moaslos and mumps.
