STUDY FOR v. N. G. OFFICERS.
-Four Years Course Outlined in Orders
From Adjutant General.

Orders issued this week from the office
of Adjutant General W. H. Gilmore pro-
vide for more radical and far reaching
changes in the Vermont National Guard
than have been made with the war with
Spain. They provide for thorough re,
organization of the school for officers and
| forecast a material elevation of the stand
ard of efficiency. The course for commits,
stoned officers will cover four years and
will embrace variety of subjects relating
to military tactics. Two subjects will be
taken simultaneously throughout the
school season, which will continue for SIX
months in each fiscal year. A mark OF
70 per cent in given subject will be re-
quired to enable an officer to be consld'
cred proficient therein.
Graduates will be classified as follows:
Honor graduates, those attaining an av-
erage of 95 per cent for the full course;
distinguished graduates, those attaining
an average of 80 per cent for the full
course; graduates, those who have been
pronounced proficient in all subjects. An
officer failing in a subject will be re-
ouired to repeat the course in that sub
iect to the next school year. Failure in
the same subject for two successive years
will operate to revoke the officers COM
mission. -,
The corps OF instructors VIII prepare
monthly sets of questions and practical
problems in the two subjects, for that
month, and such questions will be mailed
bv the secretary to each student officer
on or before the first of each month dur
ing the school season. Student officers
will prepare answers and solutions, and
forward same in season to reach the sec
rotary on or before the 18th of the month.
Failure to have answers in the secre-
tary's hand by the time specified will be
considered by the corps of instructors IN
determining the officers rating and their
decision will be final. Each student otl-
Ger will then be rated on his solution by
each of the instructors separately, and the
average of the marks assigned will con-
stitute his rating for the month. APP
proved solutions of the problems of each
month will be sent to student officers on
or before the first of the month following,

ure, for he has been~one of the most sue,
cessful pastors the church has had and
has served longer period than any other:
A member of the prudential committee IS
in receipt of letter from DR.. Almon

high esteem for Rev. Mr.. Bissell is ex-
pressed and the statement made that MIR.
Bissell had been several times in mind for
recommendation for some of the best par
ishes in the denomination, but his con
spicuous success in Springfield had made
it seem wise that Mr.. Bissell should re.
main. This letter is but an indication OF
the high position which Mr.. Bissell holds
among clergymen Of his denomination.
