rare They gave us an abundance Of,
vegetables for dinner, but OF such a
character that they were little eaten. l
have heard a number remark that they
wished All these had been left out and
ono good dish given them, preferably
meat, but thi condition went on from
day to day without change.
1t is a fact however, that dishes can
be and are prepared properly there, but
the cadets do not share in them. Visit
ing teams are entertained at the insti-
lutte and take their meals In the mess
hall, and they almost Invariably give
4 them good meat, which Is also we'll pre-
pared. Having been lucky enough to
have job which called for my being
with the visiting teams, l have been at
meals with them, and know what they
get. Their meat is well prepared, and
shows neglect In the preparation OF
that given the cadets themselves.
Although 1t may appear strange that
enc waiter can attend to thirty-two fell
lows, yet It is So and there is no kick
on that score. 5a ,

Dr. Charles v. Darlington. Richmond,
Va: T,
Dear Doc tori have taken a great deal
of interest in your statements about the
fare at the mess hail. and have kept up
on them. and now want to tell you a few
things that may help you. Yesterday
General Ship had four OF the boys-the
first captain, the cadet Quartermaster,
wv. T. IDavant, and Tazewell Elicit, Jr.,,
down at his office, and after writing out
statements OF exactly what happened on
the day OF your visit, Captain Hyatt got
them to swear to them, and said he was
going to send them to Hamilton, at his
request am sure every one OF the
statements were IN your favor, SO ne
won't be able to use them.
The real purpose Of this letter, Doctor,
is to thank you for your efforts IN our
behalf, and am sure, without an excep-
ton, every man in the corps Is very
grateful to you. We would write a letter
Of thanks as body, but under tho ex-
listing regulations that cannot be- sug-
rest to Mr.. Hamilton that he tako a vote;

that you would get It unanimously

as L was one of them that helped carry
him in. Again, Mr.. Hamilton says in one
of his replies to you that the board OF
visitors made frequent visits to the mess
hall to investigate the food, and that he
asked several cadets II the meals he saw
were representative OF our regular ones.
and that the cadets replied In the affirm

to have them corrected which Mr.. Ham !.

In order to show the public that the
cadets themselves are not allowed BY
the authorities to express their real
opinions on this subject, I Will simply
quote two letters which speak for them
selves. The writer OF the first. Mr.. r a.
Owen Of Lynchburg, Va, graduated with
distinction from the institute In June,
1905, as Jackson Hope medalist. The
writer Of the second. and more startling
letter rs now first class-man at the
Institute, but, although i have his own
and his fathers authority to quote him.
i refrain from using his name for con-
sdcrations which are apparent.
The letters are as follows:
Lynchburg, Va. October II, 1905.
DR.. Charles V. Darlington,
Richmond, Virginia,
Dear Sir:
I have read with great deal OF In
tcrest your remarks touching upon the
fare given the cadets at the Virginia
Military Institute, and although I do not
think your first article Is correct In every
respect, yet you come 80 far from being
on the wrong side of the argument sub
seguently engaged In by yourself and
Mr. Hamilton, that l. think 1T UP TO
someone, who has come in contact with
Vie tlS Ia te SGdl
to state a few facts. A change for the
better In the meals would. think. be
nothing short OF God-send to the three
hundred cadets now there. However, tho
lack of good meals will never mart
name of the INSTITUTE owing to the re-
putation 1t has gained and Will ever
keep, but In my opinion the fellows De-
SERVE better things.
Having taken In the neighborhood OF

and now at "a time when no longer
have to look forward to them. ought
ito be able to describe the condition with
out any exaggeration.
OF course, the people can live on saw
dust II necessary. and the nature OF the
work done by the cadets Is such, that
they are in much better condition, not
withstandng the fare, han they would
be without the same physical exercise.
The trouble Is not SO much with the
quality OF the food, although that Is open,
to Improvement as with the prepara-
ton Of 1t. The meat, although not of
the best quality by any means, would be
vastly improved by good preparation, for.
whatever they cook becomes indistin-
Guishable. AS TO the bread fact which
will show the exact condition, Is. that
nothing but the crust is ever eaten!
Each fellow keeps spot beside his plate.

be seen before 1t Is tackled. No prepa-
ration could ever improve tthe oleomnr-s

by the name of butter. ! hardly knew
a cadet who ate 1t except on rare coca
slons.
There was very seldom complaint as
to the quantity given us except When
