Col. G. A. Philbrook, of the Second
Regiment, N. G. S. M, will have his
spring school in March, and has begun
TO assign topics to those who will preside
over the sessions. 1t is intended that
every officer in the regiment shall be fully
informed as to what will be discussed
at the school, so that he may post him
self and be prepared to ask questions
upon what he does not understand AS
now arranged objects are carefully cho-
sen, aud studied by those who are to
help bring them before the school. There
is also tendency to have all the officers
take part in the work. The result has
teen a large increase in interest. The
Board convened to consider the manu-
script Of the new regulations has finished
its work and adjourned. The Board oc-
cupied a week in its labors, and consid-
cred the work cry carefully. All that
remains now is TO have the proposed reg
ulations considered and approved by the
commander-in chief and then sent TO
