100 APPLICANTS 1'OR CITY
SCHOOL SUPKIUNTRNDKNT.
Mrs. Harry Cramer, Bocrotary or the
board of education, Informs int'that
she has on file nbout one hnntlretl
applications for suporlntondent of the
city schools, made vncant by tho de
cision of Supt. Tout not to re-apply.
These applicants are scattered all over
the countryrtono living as far north as
Canada, anothor ns far south as
Florida. This can be taken as evi
dence that North Platte Is a muchly
ndverised town, and is know through
out the entire nail on.
The board will hold a meeting with
in tho next fow days and sift out
applicants who may, appear not to
possess tho necessary qualifications
and then from Hie remainder make a
solection. It 'Is probable that in order
to secure a superintendent that meets
tho requirement a. higher salary must
be paid than was given Supt. Tout.
