erect booth near the eocampment
grounds and sell postcards, pies, cakes,
soft drinks, etc. Tables will also be
provided which the soldiers may use for
writing, etc. This will be a feature
never before enjoyed at an encampment.
The men who wished to write had to use
almost anything available for table and
oftentimes stationery was at premium.

can be made out of the booth by Com
pany A. The stand will be in charge of
several members of the cadet battalion

houses, cottages, etc., with locations,
names of proprietors and rates. The

well in keeping with its predecessors.
The cover is in dark blue and gold and
bears a pretty medallion of High Rock
Observatory in colors. Besides the Blue
Ridge section, Braddock Heights are also
touched upon and a fine picture of the
Braddock Heights Hotel accompanies the
article. The Western Maryland will have
a fine lot of new equipment for use this

the new Pittsburg extension, but as that
will not be open until spring. the new
coaches and locomotives will be available
for use for the summer traffic, which
bids fair to break all records this sum

been erected in the Blue Ridge regior
