 is expected that outside of the one
 night for drilling there will be a drill
 on Saturday afternoon or Sunday each
 week and now that a state of war
 exists the men should answer the call
 in patriotic manner so that they

 the measurements for the uniforms
 and the other equipment that is nec-
 essary to fit out the unit. The ques-
 tion of rife practice will be taken up
 and it is expected to be decided at
 this time. An offer has been sent in-
 to the recruiting office by g. former
 National Guardsman, who is a crack
 shot, ot take charge of the rifle prac-
 tice and this offer will probably be
 taken.
