order was received by the mayor
yesterday, the lid was clamped

That the Chickasha company Of the
National guard is making progress,
but needs more support and pep, was
the gist of the talk made last night
to the men by Adiutant General Glib
son of the state military department.
General Gibson came to Chickasha
last night unheralded on an inspec-
tion tour.
The adjutant general stated in his
talk to the men that when the organ
izatiOn of the Oklahoma regiment
was proposed, some were not in ia,
vor Of designating Chickasha as one
of the towns, it being asserted that
this town and county could not raise
a company of volunteers. He added
however that Governor Williams
stated emphatically that Chio3.asha
would be among the first to raise 0
company and after it was raised, II
would be one Of the crack companies
il the regiment. Chickasha was the
first town designated
General Gibson announced that I'M
meGiately following the mastering In
o fthe regiment an encampment would
be held. The place for encampment
is not at this time fully determined
he said, but the assurance is given
that a location will be named in
plenty Of time for the men to go to
this training camp as soon as the
regiment passes muster.
In addition to this, an officers
training camp will be installed espe
cially for the officers of the national
guard regiment of Oklahoma. The
men enlisted for commissions will be
required to go this training school
and be put through the same course
OF training as given in the officers
schools for the national army. Al
the close of this school they will bt
required to pass an examination be
, fore their commission is DEFINITELY
given
The visit of Adjutant General Glib
son, it is believed, will be a h'- nm
petus to the organizing of the ma
tional guard company here. The gen
eral made a special appeal to higl
school boys, as well as to the olde
men, declaring it to be the duty o
every able bodied man to get int
