swapped horses and traded mules

Although it was cold and dull and
dreary, and the clonds were heavy and
threatening on Monday, salesday, yet
.the drill of the Cadets of the S. G. C. 1.

and won the admiration of all who
witnessed their maneuvres. They GER
tainly have been well drilled by one
well up in military tactics; and the
boys in their field movements and
manuel Of arms deported themselves
like United States regulars. They are
credit to the Institute, and we are
proud of them.
