FIRST DRAFT CANDIDATES
EXAMINED

Two out of the first three candidates
for trench honors have successfully
passed their physical examination. The
three men had plans for the immediate
future and asked for an early examina-
ton. The three were Mr.. Christopher
son, clerk in Somsen & Dempsev's
office, Arthur P. Sorenson who holds a
like position in the N. Henningsen
Agency office and Simon Scheid of
Sleepy Eye. One of the three was re-
jected on account Of defective eyesight
but the examiners did not wish to give
out more definite information as to
which of the three this might be as the
examinations were held prior to the
time set. The Board wishes to an
nounce that any drafted man may come
to them for examination before the time
set if he wishes to do SO and thus save
aftertime as the time set for examina-
ton to begin, each must present himself
in order as bis name appears on the list.

himself at the side of the stream, when
he accidentally fell into the water. He
called to his companions, but before they
could reach him he had sunk out of
