TO fifty cents for each member. The
chapter has already expended Shis en-.
tire fund in the purchase OF material.

near meet the requirements. II j.,
therefore. necessary to provide some
means for raising enough money to
enable the chapter TO keep an ample
supply Of material on hand for its

IL is nothing less than what is called a memorandum" covering the daily work laid out by Colonel Nule for the training of his husky recruits from Arizona. This memOr- andum" covers more than four sOlidly- typed pages and accounts for every minute from reveille to taps. Private letters received tell that the work is hard. but not at all irkSOme. for it is evident that it is leading steadily toward proficiency in the art of mod ern warfare and that every day brings France that much nearer.
 The regiment still is far from be ing fully equipped, yet the training proceeds as though it were. There are battle exercises daily. the bat teries taking up combat positions in tO uAAAA. and his positions and covering cOndi- tiOns of actual warfare 10 as large an extent as possible. Naturally, a part of the day is devoted 10 close order drill. to weld the units more eompactly. while the Colonel daily holds a review of the entire command ss it marches to the drill grounds.
 Provision is made for evening schools for non-commissioned officers. covering the ground that is 10 be taken up the following day.
