Sergeant Johnson, in charge of the
recruiting station received a wiro
Saturday morning stating that tho war
department had learned that our popu

This populaton of over 10,000 was
contended by Tho Tribune to bo veri

tho announcement from "Washington

On a letterhead ufted by tho Chamber
of Commotce In 1915, tho prediction
was made . .that North Platto would
have JLjpopulatlon of 10,000 in 1920;
that tho efforts of tho organization
would be to accomplish that result.
Through thoso efforts we have more
than reached the goal. tho Workman's Compensation Act. He or8, ot ."uo ,n.nU wllit0 coverI"5 the and Mrs. C. J. Vroipan, undorwont an Mrs. C. E. Sousor and daughter, Miss
