full CREDITS WILL
BE GIVEN STUDENTS
Dakota Will Not Penaize Boy'
Enlisting for Military or In
dustrial Service.

Pierre. S. d., April 2S.-Superintend-
mt OF Public Instruction Lugg is is
suing n statement to county superln-
:endents allowing the full years credit
% students who are enlisting in mill
tary service providing it is certain
rom their marks go far this year that
they would pass ii they had. remained
in school until the close of the year.
However. MIR. Lugg believes that the
students who are willing to enlist in
the Agricultural armY and thus I'LL
a great need in the present crisis should
have every bit as much II
as much credit as those who are en-
listing in military service, and conse-
quently fun credit in school studies
for the remainder of the year will be
granted such students going out for
agricultural work, as for those going
now into the military lines.
County superintendents are author
lied by this statement to arrange for
such special examinations as they
deem necessary to carry out the s1g-
sestions. Questions for such special ex-
arninations for the seventh and eighth
grade finals should be sen to the su-
p~erintendent of public instruction for
approval.
Mr.. Lugg's statement reads: High
school seniors who enlist in either
"a III VI III 1dSy " dSLAYO e VIC
will be graduated at once, provided
their credits are such that there is no
doubt of their being able to finish with
their class il they remained in school.
Credit for the complete years work will
be given to other high school students
under the same conditions, making
their record complete for the present
year IL they enlist in the military
service.
"Whils the ranks of productive labor
are not Organized as are those of the
military service, they afford as large
opportunity for patriotic service to hui
mainly and to our country in this time
of need. Students Of the high school
Or pupils in the elementary grades
about ~ years OF age who wish to
enlist in the agricultural army for farm
work or gardening, may be given a
special examination to test their fit
ness to be admitted to the privileges
of this service, provided their work
for the preceding months of the year
has been satisfactory. II the special
test indicates that there is a
able certainty of their being able to
finish with their class this year, should
they remain in school, they may be ex-
cused from school the balance Of the
term and may receive their diplomas

THOUSANDS OF ELK Persisted
IN STORMS OF PAST WINTER

Custer, S. D., April 3o.-An inyestiga-
ton made by agents Of the federal gov
eminent has revealed that hundreds of
elk In different parts of the west died
as the result of the severe winter and
from the effects Of the blizxards which
on two or three occasions early this
year swept Y e some OF the states OF
the northwest.
The heaviest losses Of any one To-
caIty occurred in Yellowstone national
park, where the federal agents found
the bodies OF elk In nearly every can
yon and other out of the way places.
A y of the dead elk was made by
the government agents, assisted by
scouts and revealed approximately
1000 dead elk.
The number. though large, is not con-
sldered startling inasmuch as the past
winter was the most severe ever expe-
rienced in the national park. 1t is esti-
mated that in all there are about 3d. 900
head of living elk yet in the park.
