The Thirtsenth regiment was the
first regiment to qualify its entire
membership, ard has continued to do
so for many years. II sell the example
for the other regiments, several OF
which'have In recent years qualified
every man. Governor Pattison, in
spirsd by the skill und enterprise Of
the Thirteenth. makes II obligatory In
his general order No .. for every ihem-
Der OF evory regiment to qualify ~
marksmen this year. A failure to do
so upon the part Of any company. will
be considered cause for disbandmsnt.
II IL Governor Pattison's ambition to
retire US coinmander.in. chief with
every man in the division OF N. G. p.
qualified aS marksman. The Thir.
teonth will do its share.
The encampment this year upon the
famous and historic battle field OF Get
tysburg will be OF unusual interest to
the National guard. Every member Of
the Thirteenth must be present at this
encampment No excuse for absence
except sickness will be accepted. No
employer should In any way hinder
employees from going TO camp II is q
demand Of the state and should bs
cheerfully acquiesced in.
The rifle range is now open, Have
you quali6ed2 Why not qualify every
member Of the regiment before going
to camp next AugustP 1t can be done,
Let every officer and man make 1t his
personal business to qualify at once.
Private Hughes, OF Company II, was
court martialed last Monday evening
for non-attendanoe ut drill.
The regiment presented fine ap-
pearance on parade at Honesdale last
Wednesday. The several companies
turned out with full ranks. The
