due to the new uniforms which the
state has issued during the last half
year. The new service blouses, the
new khaki uniforms and the tan
shoes gave the companies an appear
ance of uniformity which was highly
pleasing. There were about $50
guardsmen on the special train and
all of them were in the best of spir-
its and anxious to get tor camp.
In addition to the three ears which
contained the soldiers. there was a
special car attached to the train for
the use of the officers and the staff
| of Colonel w. T. Channon of the
9th infantry There was a baggage cal
| in the train also, although the fact
| that the soldiers all carried thciI
| entire equipment, made it have q
| rather empty appearance in compar-
ison to former years when the extra
equipment and supplies of the com
panieS were taken along in the bag,
gage cars.
