answer to much of our present bust

is such a viewpoint which pronn4s

The National Guard is Being Train.
ed to a Higher Degree of Eff
cheney Than Ever Known Befor.

Jackson, Miss, January %
FOR the first time in the history OF
organized National Guard. the
National Guard Of Mississippi is able
to secure complete equipment. and
though small, the National Guard is
beng trained to a higher degree of
emeiency thar ever known before.
The Federal Government is of course,
responsible for this condition. but
officers Of the Guard are pleased to
ind what the old spirit of unfriepd-
~ criticism has departed from the
regulars detiled as instructors: that
on the contrary, there IS Il spirit Of
h~elpfulness among those regular
army officers who come to this state
to make inspections and instruct.
A few years ago, as many OF the
Old Guardsmen remember, about
twenty-five or thirty good fellows
got together and declared themselv-
es a company: They elected the
most popular in their ranks as Il Cap
TEN and the next two ~lieutenants.
n AdJutant General would skirm-
lsh around and get the outfit, a few
niles and a few pairs of brooches. a
lew shirts and hats and all its equip
ment. Then when the company want
ed to nave a beer drinking. thew had
a drlH and If the officers and meI,
didn't attend, no Il cared.

much different from the old as a full, |

spectOn. Fifty men at least. must be
IN the ranks and have been physical
Iy examined and inspected. there
must be present 3 officers who are
able to satisfy the board that they
are qualified to function as such: the
company must have = first-class
and the men must be able
to attend drills. AS soon as the COM
pany is mustered and recognized, the
Department fully equips it.
The result is that every company
the National Guard of this state
IS a thoroughly mobile organization.
Within a few hours each company
could march out Of it's armory fully

Some people often wonder why it
is that editors generally wear long
tailed coats. We don't think it will
be telling tales out Of school when
we state that the skylights that d
wives often put into our pants do not
always match colors with the other
goods, and a long tailed coat is the
most appropriate under the circufn-
stances-or over it either, for that
matter.
