THE AUGUSTA CADETS
Enjoy a Days Outing and Barquet al Silver
Lake.

If there had been an enemy lurking
| in knowles corn field. Monday, Camp
: richards might have been captured
| without n struggle. for all day long
mot a drum was heard and the ca
| diets were miles away. The only hui
man being in camp. from o'clock in
the morning until $50 in the after
noon. with exception of sundry visitors,
was Mrs. Tilson, the lady who pre-
sides over the commissary department
ard whose excellent cooking is begin
ming To make itself manifest in the
rugged appearance of the boys.
Monday had been set apart by Cen
oral White for the purpose Of giving
the boys a cross country march to
Silver lake, there to enjoy themselves
in 4 days picnic Silver lake is stu
atcd about two miles from Camp
Richards as the crow flies, at least
that Is what the natives of that sec
ton claim the distance to be, but
General White thinks an actual sur
VCy would prove that the distance is
moderated.
The trip had been looked forward to
with great cagcrnesS by the boys, and
every one of them was up bright and
carly breakfast was had at 6 o'clock
and at o'clock the company armed
with rifles ana equipped with havcr-
SACKS ANA tin clippers, set out On the
march. The morning was warm. but
not too warm ana the lake WAS reach
ed in II little less than an hour and a
half
II is pretty spot with 4 fine grove
uca" the shore, ana wen adapted for
pictics. and il is perhaps needless 70
say that every boy went in swimming
as soon rs he could take off his clothes.
Swimming, by the way. is one of their
Sp"CialticS and the greater portion Of
them have mastered the art.
Erforc dinner time arrived Mrs. Or.
Martin. Mrs Joseph Williamson. Jr.
ana Miss Ethclyn Burlcigh drove ur
10 III grove laden with good things
and the result was that the boys had
a II gular treat. The menu included:
Fri, rssced Chicken. garnishcd with iIard
Hoilcd Egg
Mashed Potatoes Green Corn
Curraut jelly Pickles
Lemonade
Icr Cream Cake

The denial OF the application OF Major Clin-

strain the examining board appointed by Gov.
Roosevelt from determining his fitness to
serve In the State m ilitia has been affirmed by
the Appellate Division OF the Supreme Court.
The opinion. which IL written by Justice Bar

board is to record the evidence and present

advise him. and that it's action has no effect
