regular posts primarily for the purpose
of target practice.
a misunderstanding has arisen in
some states as to the field artillery Of
ficers' camps this year, it being assumed
that the encampment for Fort Riley was
substituted for the Fort Sill exercises.
Both encampments will be held, the
school of fire at Fort Sill, OKLA, from
May 10 to June Is, and the Fort Riley
camp of instruction from July to 20.
The Fort Riley camp is intended for
