CHINESE GIRL
OUTRANKS HER
CLASS IN WORK
Pearl Wong Takes First
Honors in Academic
Work at T.. G..

Miss Pearl Wong of Ngu Cheng,
China, a member of the third-year
academy class of Fargo college,
ranked first in the academy with a
grade for the second semester of
$3.50, according to announcement
made yesterday by Dean. Vowles.
Miss Wong has been in America
only two years and yet in spite of
the handicap of language, she rank
ed fifth in the academy in the first
semester, and first the second
semester.
The honor roll in scholarship for
the second term does not take into
consideration standings earned dur
ing the first semester, which ended
February /. 1917. Consequently the
list of those standing highest in the
respective classes differs somewhat
from the prize list announced at
commencement, because the work
for the whole year, both semesters,
was averaged in selecting the VIM
ners.
Class Winners.
The winners or those standing
first in the classes were as follows:

cetved another batch of absent voter

he would forward them to their re-
spective precincts to be voted on

primary and general elections in
the state.
County Auditor Tucker accepted
applications for these ballots before
the opinion had been given out. The
state printer had been instructed by

KEYE RETURNS
FOR IS HOURS
Fargo Boy Who Enlisted
In Navy Takes Chance
On Visiting Home

Life in the United States navy has
it's hardships and its enjoyment, ac-
cording to John Keye, 1921 Second
avenue south who, with a number
of other Fargo college students quit
their studies and on May 1 answer
ed the call to colors and enlisted in
| the navy
Keye is home on an sS-hour fur
Tough and arrived in Fargo Friday
evening with Claude Baxter, another
college student, who returned to his
home at Barnesville. The two will
leave tomorrow morning for the
Great Lakes training station in or
der to report for duty at o'clock
Monday morning. Rather than take
trip to Chicago or Milwaukee, the
boys decided to take chance in
visiting their homes.
Both Keye and Baxter enlisted in
the hospital branch of the navy.
Keye stated this morning that the
drill hours are from 8 to IL and
from / to o'clock after which they
enjoy a period of recreation until 5
o'clock, the time for evening mess
Evenings the boys are entertained
acts and boxing matches. At the
week end they are given a vacation
of 36 hours.
Keye is of the opinion that tho
men who enlisted as seamen or in
other branches, and were granted fur
loughs after passing their final ex-
aminations and sent home, will be
called out soon, which will mean an
increase of about 10000 men at the
Great Lakes training station. Other
Fargo college men who enlisted the
same time as Keye and Baxter are
reported to be enjoying the drills
and navy life.
Among the other Fargo college
students to join the navy were Cliff
ton F. Phillips, Henry P. Chaplain
Rudolph OVERLY, Barnhardt Rubel
Charles Brown, Marion Watson and
Earl Stixrud.
