VERY MUCH IN EARNEST

Every year toward the close of the school
term the several companies of the High
School Cadet Corps engage in friendly COM
petitive drill, and the event is always look
ed forward to by the cadets and their
friends with great interest. Since the
command has been enlarged into req
ment 1t has been necessary to hold the
competitions iE an open field instead Of in
doors, as formerly, and to occupy two
afternoons instead of a few hours in one
evening. This year the competition will
be held in the National Base Ball Park at
the head of 18th street. the afternoons of
Tuesday and Wednesday. May 10 and 20.
AS the time for holding the drill ap-
proaches the interest in that event in
c1eases. The drill Monday on the White
Lot of the four companies from the Cen
trail High School. comprising the first bat
TALON, was the first opportunity to judge
the officers and size up the companies
Specula ton has been rife all during the

four companies.

very well. In the matter of discipline I
have nothing to complain about. Some of
the platoon movements require little more
practice. both on the part of the guides
and officers. If discipline. combined with
a steady drill, fulfills the requirements of

be very close and exciting in the first bat
talon.
In regard to our chances with the Sec
ond" he continued, Il am unable to say
anything definite, as the hattaions have
not drilled together since last February.
Nevertheless, l have great confidence in
our chances. merely because l am certain
that our four companies are using every
effort in their power to succeed. And as
the officers seem to thoroughly understand
every part of the program, and as there is
plenty of spirit in the boys. l see no serious
obstacle in or way. Whether We will carry
off the hcnors or not it is impossible to
say. But / can assure those who are in
terested in our half of the drill that We
will send four strong companies into the
field to hold up the reputation of the first
battalion of the Central High School"

splendidly, ard if they keep it up there

In referring to the chances of this COM

The members of the company realize

He Bought the Beggar's Hat,

from the fnlladelpnla RECORD.
To pedestrians on Market street Of late
blind beggar, who wears one hat on his
head and carries another in his hand to
receive the aims of the charitable, has be-
come a familiar figure. This mendicant,
while standing at the corner of 10th and
Market streets late one night last week,
attracted the attention of a well-dressad
man about-town. The latter stopped and
reached into his pocket for a coin. Just
then sudden gust of wind struck his
tall silk hat and lifted it Off his head The
tile skipped out into the middle of Market
street and stopped on the car track A
trolley car rushed by and left the tile a
battered and shapeless wreck. The owner
picked up his ruined property and threw it
away again. All the hat stores were clos
ed, and there was no way for him to buy a
new headpiece. His eye rested once more
on the blind man and his two hats. Say"
said the man-about-town, I'll give you 80
cents for one of those hats" The blind
man emptied the hat in his hand of the
few coins 1t contained and promptly turn
ed 1t over.

those scenes of yore which gave

the dear old spot are solaces in the
