CADETS MADE
GOOD SHOWING
C. M. A. BOYS HAD ANNUAL IN.
SPECTlON.-HoLIDAY WAS A
LITTLE LATE.

If indications count for anything the
annual inspection of Columbia Mill
tary Academy Monday by Capt. P. D.
Lockridge, U. s. A., was the most sue
cessful ever held at the local school.
While Capt. LockridGe's report will be
forwarded to the Secretary of War
and its contents will not be made pub
lie before Summer, there is every
reason to believe that it will be favor
able. The inspecting officers, as a
rule, are extremely reticent and never
offer comments indicating whether
they are pleased or dispIeased, but
Capt. Lockridge proved an exception
to the rule and did not hesitate to
speak words of praise for the fine
work put up by the cadets. The
Academy has always been ranked as
"Class A. the highest position obtain
able, and it is believed that this year
it will again be given this classified
ton. The cadets spent busy day
Monday and acquitted themselves adj
The parade, review, normal
attack, retreat, extended and closed
order drills were all admirably exc
cuted and showed that the boys in
gray have attained marked efficiency
in military tactics under the capable
instruction of Commandant Newman.
On account of the inspection being
on Monday, the regular holiday the
cadets are today enjoying the holiday
that came twenty-four hours late.
