 All enlisted men will be paid 30 per cent of the pay allowed enlist ed men of the regular army and will be required to drill only once each week, which would mean an an- nual pay roll for Marianna of ap- proximately $10,000.00.
 The company is to be fully equip ped with uniforms, rifles and all the equipment as prescribed for an in~ fantry company during peace times.
 Steel lockers will be provided in the armory for each mans equip ment.
 Men who enlist in the company will sign regular enlistment blank and will be examined by a medical officer to ascertain their physical fitness for service, but all enlist ment papers will be held by Major Robertson and Mir. Claywen until they will have enlisted 50 men.
 After the organization of 50 men has been perfected, a report will be made to the adJuCant general or the state who will send an inspect or here to formally inspect and rec ognize the company of the National Guard If for any reason com pany cannot be recruited to the re- quired strength and an organiza- ton cannot be perfected any en- listment papers accepted will be de- livered to the parties concerned and no further steps will be taken to- ward organizing a company here.

Major Elgan c.

 A recent ruling from the depart ment places the minimum strength of an infantry company during peace times at 50 men and plans are well under way to org3 niZe a company in Marianna.
 There are to be two other com missioned officers selected, one first and second lieutenant, but the se- lection of these officers is to be left to the enlisted men of the com pany, provided that the men select ed meet the necessary physical ano mental qualifications.
 Major Robertson will recommend the men selected as lieutenants tc the adjutant general and the ap pointment will be made.
 Nothing, however, can be done to ward the selection of lieutenants ot the company until the organization of 50 men will have been completed
