occasion, and is admirably fitted to up
hold the Western reputation Of doing
well whatever is undertaken.
But having decided definitely toenter
the competition, it should not allow it's
admitted excellence in drill to prevent
it from striving to get into a
state Of even better preparation.
Nothing should be left undone that
will tend to forward its success.
That much it owes to its state, its city
and itself. Nor should the company be
hampered by financial restrictions.
Doubtless in the generosity of the pub
lie which it represents it may find the
way clear for it financially, il it is not
already unobstructed.
The lessons learned in previous con-
tests will be valuable in this, and if the
same energy and hard work are dis
played in preparing for this competi-
ton as have been shown on previous oe-
casions, it will seem wonderful indeed,
if Company d does not return, as it de-
serves to do, the winner Of every prize
for which it completes at the Nashville
