HIGH SCHOOL CADETS
Are Enjoying Camp Life at High Head,
Harpsweu

1t was late Friday afternoon when the
Merryconeag landed the battalion of the
High School Cadets at High Head. Harm
swell, about quarter of mile from the
camp, ana 1t was fully an hour later
when the camp was put in condition to
house the soldiers AS soon as the tents
were pitched, the boys sat down to an
excellent clam chowder to which they did
| full justice. After dinner the cadets be-
gan to get their tents in order and nearly
all of the afternoon was passed in get
ting things straight. Although each man
was allowed to carry but one knapsack
| and the officers but one trunk, it was sur
prising to see how many comforts the
boys had stored away in such small
compass. The guards were posted about
the camp, there being four sentries, each
of whom had one side of the camp to
patrol. The guards were changed every
two hours. The large field in the neigh
borhood will be used as parade ground.
Saturday morning was cloudy, but the
bodys were turned out at 5. 45 o'clock by
the bugle and morning gun, and 10 min
utes later fell in for setting up drill
Breakfast of baked beans and hot coffee
was served at o'clock and at 8. Is O'Clock
came guard mounting. Then came a
O'Clock battalion drill that lasted an
hour, and at g. 45 the dress parade, fol-
lowed by lots of fun. Sunday there we're
