accompany the American Punitive Ex-
petition in Mexico have not only
marched abreast Of their toughest
charges clear through to the Sierra
Madres, but here they have distin-
guished themselves in a new way.
They have established the first cleo
trio plant within a 125-mile radius OF
this spot in chihuahua for the lighting
Of reading room and a movie show.
However commonplace the electric
light has become in the states, it Is
still rather an innovation in this part
of Mexico, especially in an army camp

thanks to the chapIains who devoted
much time to FOSTERING the authorities
for permission to bring the necessary

Col. Squier, Chief, Announces
Preliminary Intentions
For Training i. :. 7. 7.

HonoluIu's organization of an aero
club during the last few months is in
fitting time with an announcement by
Lieut-Col. George o. Squier, chief OF
the aviation section of the Signal
Corps, regarding the training of re-
serve aviators. Il. III.
Col Squier says that it is the in:
tention to train as many such asApos
sible and whether this number WI be
a thousand or less will depend upon
the personnel and facilities available.
This division is a different class than
national guardsmen, and will be train
ed at civilian flying schools. .>.... !.
When reserve aviatorS are thorough
ly trained they will, if satisfactory,
receive commissions as Officers in tie
Officers Reserve Corps. - -. i
Any civilian who wishes to join the
Officers Reserve Corps as a reserve
military aviator should send mis- ;.p
plication to the War Department Il
Washington. He will then ne { amin

is possible, by an officer of the Avia-
ton Section, to determine his prob
able fitness. - ~ IT,. 49,. -,

which serve through the entire fore
noon at that work, and must have the
meal ready when the bugle blows
Cease firing for lunch.
The casual spectator who climbs
to the top Of the crater or rides up
in an automobile is yisibly impressed
with his first view of the target work.
Disks Tell Results
There is a fascination in watching
the big targets spotted to show wheth-
er the last shot went true or wild. I'm.
mediately after shot is made disk
is lifted TO the target to show the To-
cation of hit. A white disk means a
bullseye and counts five; a red disk
counts four, and so on down. If the
entire target is missed a red flag is
waved, almost defiantly it seems, and
often provoking as much wrath in the
unfortunate marksman as it would pro-
woke in bull
The targets resemble huge playing
cards-aces of clubs-and they slide
up and down between shots almost as
il alive. That black mark in the cen
ter is supposed to represent the head
and shoulders of man, lying prone
and firing straight ahead
The ranges fired over are 200, 800,
500 and 600 yards, and various posi-
tons are allowed the marksmen ac-
cording to the record to be tried for.
Sometimes he lies prone, sometimes
squats on one knee. The beginner is
instructed during the process by one
of his company officers. practically
all of whom are good shots.
Men Fire in Turn
Each target is fired at by two men,
being raised and lowered alternately
as they take turns in shooting. This
gives spirit of competition that
arouses interest and helps in the
work.
If all the shots are going wide or
high, this fact is telephoned back to
the butts from the pits and orders go
out to the individual to change his
sights accordingly This telephone
communication is carried on constant
ly. keeping the two groups of men in
touch with each other.
At noon the bugle call rings out to
cease firing and prepare for lunch
Hungry infantrymen know the mean
ing of the notes which to them have
truly silver sound. From the pits

come running some 20 or more me
with yells of delight as they cross the
area to the mess grounds
Then they line up single file, hun
cry bread line that passes the huge
pots of corn beef hash or potatoes or
rice, where generous heIpings are
scooped out to plates that look up be-
sseechingly. The officers eat under the
shade of kiawe tree and at table,
and often an army officer is present
as a guest.
Amusing Incidents Arise
Funny incidents are always occur
ring that add TO the good time VI the
day. Maybe a stray COW from the
road camp nearby strolls across the
range during practise. At once the
order to cease firing does down the
line. |
Sometimes it's an officer, sometimes
private that goes TO clear the range
armed with rocks and. sticks. Who
ever it is he is applauded with cheers
and hand-clapping from the men be-
hind, and cries of "bullseye, bullseye,"
go up as an especially well aimed rock
lands against the bovine ribs.
Or It may be that the goat mascot
which Jack" Atkinson brought from
Kahoolawe breaks into the customary
routine by attacking cartridge belt

GERS of rival companies engage in a
spirited contest at the targets. and
are backed by their respective men
who watch the shooting eagerly.
Later in the afternoon, about the
time that the rays of the sun are be-
ginning TO strike down less forcefully.
the order is given to clean up for the
march to town, and soon after many
tired but happy men mount the rim

Target practise upon an open

day of preparedness, but rifle range

unique and probably belongs to no 9TH
