Ordway is fully as good. II not better, than
that which the average man has at home,
and the District Of Columbia National
Guard Is fortunate in having in its ranks
officers whose capability has borne such ex-
cellent results. Maj. E. H. Neumeyer, COM
missary general, Is we'll known to many
officers Of the regular army and to the
militia as having brought his department
to the highest state Of efficiency, and the
success attained by him in previous camps
has been more than surpassed at Camp
Ordway. His principal assistant Is Lieut..
g. H. Neumeyer, jr, LIST Regiment, camp
commissary. who receives In bulk from
the commissary general the subsistence
stores Of the command and issues them
to the regimental commissaries, who, in
turn, issue them to the companies. Lieut..
Neumeyer's duties bring him into imme-
date contact with the various organiza-
tions, and many questions arise that must
be settled at once and, therefore. require
the exercise of tact and good judgment.
While carefully guarding the interests Of
the government he ,endeavors to meet, SO
far as possible, the desires Of the organi-
cations and individuals with whom he
deals, and his patience and courtesy are
we'll known to his superiors and appre-
ciated by his subordinates First Lieut.. D.
Spencer Bliss, LIST Regiment. Is in charge
of the camp bakery, and he has already
shown that the brigade is capable of turn
ing out wholesome and palatabe bread.
Duties of Quartermastef.
The quartermaster's department Of the
camp is charged with transporting and
sheltering the command, selecting the lay
ing out the camp grounds, installing the
water supply. providing animals for the use
Of the mounted officers and the teams in
which the supplies and camp equipment
are hauled, the purchase of all supplies.
except the articles of the ration, the issue
Of fuel for cooking and forage for the
horses. In the militia Of most states the
Office of quartermaster general is distinct
from that of commissary general, but in
the local militia the two offices are COM
bined, with the result that the operations
of the two departments much more
efficiently and economically conducted. Per-
feet coordination is thus obtained and
possible friction, due to conflicting interest,
avoided Maj. Neumeyers principal as
sistant in the quartermaster's department
Is First Lieut.. Will H. Chase, 1st Regiment,
camp quartermaster. His industry and
prompt attention to the many and difficult
details of his position have done much in
adding to the comfort and well-being Of
the troops. c. F. C.

The camp was not awake when the news
boys struck 1t, but at the first CALL Here's

through tent openings, and the papers sold

Washington to this city today in fifty-five
minutes. and will duplicate the trip when

Emmct Powell for Chancery Clerk.

The gentleman whose name appears
above submits his name to the voters
of Grenada county DIS a candidate for
chancery clerk. Mr.. Powell is a most
deserving young man. Having been
bereft Of his parents when mere
child, be early had to endure many
hardShipS. But he at once displayed
the true metal in him and applied
himself industriously to toll and thus
he soon established a reputation for
industry, honesty and integrity. The
qualities he has displayed as "a boy and
man would no doubt characterize him
as public officer. He has filled i'm
pOrtaut positions with various mer-
camille firms which is an additional
guarantee that he would execute any
work well and if the people of the
county make him their chancery
clerk. they may rest assured that the
public service will be we'll cared for
by him.

Directors Meeting.

The directors of the Gre lada Bank
held their annual meeting last Tues
dag All the old officers were elected.
The affairs of the twelve branch banks
wers found to be moving most salts
fact0rily and it was decided to eStab-
lSh two more. The year 1906 was
found to have been one Of the most
prosperous in the history of the bank.
A Sehai annual dividend of per cent.
was declared and the remainder of the
profits passed to the surplus account
Of the bank. BY study of the state
ment which appears elsewhere in this
issue, it will be seen that the bank
occupies no second place among like
institutions in the state. It's deposits
now are 81, 445, 849.46. Grenada Justly
feels pride in this splendid institu-
tion. Its president and all Of its Off
GERS and employees are not only fine
business men but most excellent
gentlemen and this in a great measure
accounts for the bank s almost marvel
louS success.

fain would ask. They served our inSti-
tGtion faithfully from the day of its
organization to the time when the
last messenger Summoned them.
These two men, the one the antithe-
sis OF the other in training tempera-
ment and disposition, occupied COM
