HOW HE EARNED HIS CROSS
American Soldier of Chinese Parent
age Talks Modestiy of Deed
of Great Bravery.

Corporal Sing Kec, color sergeant
of the Three Hundred and Sixth in
fantry of the Seventy-seventh division,
holds, one may fairly believe, the dis
tinction of being the only American
soldier of Chinese descent who ever
won a Croix de Guerre in France. The
corporal is q modest warrior not To-
quacious in the tongue Of his fellow
soldiers and when asked by a reporter
to tell how he won his cross he re-
piled, "What did I do? l did, that's
SILL" Others, however, are more ex-
plicit, and what Corporal Sing Kee
really did was to carry messages
through gas and shell fire. He was
one of the twenty runners between
commanders of advanced battalions at
Mont Notre Dame, and at the end of
the second day the corporal was the
only one still remaining in action. Late
in the afternoon he was gassed by the
enemy, but managed to reach his desti-
nation. After that came the CroiX de
Guerre, honorably earned by the Amer
lean soldier of Chinese parentage who
just "did, that's all."-Christian Sci
ence Monitor.

Miners Appreciated Books.

Officials in charge of Iowa's circulat-
ing libraries were afraid to trust a
set Of books to the people in certain
Iowa mining district. They were
afraid the books would not be cared
for properly, and thought they could
be placed where they would be used
and appreciated more than. in the min
ing town. Through the efforts of the
home demonstration agent, however,
one travelling library was sent to tho
community on trial. The demonstra-
ton agent interested the schoolboys,
who made a case in which the books
were placed. This small library led
to much interest among the people of
the town, and the demonstration agent
reports that not a single book has been
lost or destroyed.

chapel of the 1919 class. The special
exercises were in charge of the grad

was brief but with much sentiment,
his tender nature and love for the
student body was distinctly manifest.
His actions spoke louder and made a
deeper impression than any words he

Spouse from the pupils was equally as
impressive judging from the fearful
eyes, expressing their love and re-
spect for the teacher they soon must
part from. Mr.. Merrill was presented
