MILITARY

Something new in the way of ex-
hibitions was the first annual mill.
tary tournament Of the State college
II. O.. T. c. which interested a large
crowd of spectators on the college
campus Friday afternoon. The lively
popping of machine guns, the deafen
ing detonations of hand grenades and
the firing of mortars and one pound
ers, gave the people a semblance OF
real warfare. Gov. w. H.. McMastel
was present and witnessed the demon
stration.
Student officers Of the r. O. T. G
battalion had entire charge of the
demonstration and drills which they
handled with great credit to them
selves and to the men under their
command. The regular army officers
in charge Of the instruction at the
college, Capt. II. G. Weaver and Lieut.
Charles Backes, were reviewing Off
GERS for the day. The entire event
was a distinct success and will be
n of the big events each year here.
after.
The first event was a competitive
close order drill in which the second
platoon of Company b, with Cadet
Lieut.. Edmund Coyne in command,
won the honors. Following the ma
chine gun, hand and rifle grenades
and bayonet fighting were demon.
strated by picked squads. Tent pitch.
ing was demonstrated by Company B.
The advance course students demon
strated the three-inch light mortar
and fired eight rounds, and shortly
afterwards demonstrated the one
FOUNDER.
Probably the most interesting event
of the afternoon vas the sham battle
in which the use of machine guns, au.
tomato rifle, light mortar, one
FOUNDER, rifle and bayonet were
demonstrated. The platoon under the
command of Cadet Major Haugen ad.
vanced upon an entrenched machine
gun nest and captured it.
The tournament closed with the
battalion parade in which all of the
men and officers participated and
marched in review. Much praise and
many congratulations have been
showered upon the r.. 0. T. Of the
college and the officers in charge of
the training, Captain Weaver and
Lieutenant Backes, for the splendid
drill and interesting demonstrations
given last Friday.

their hogs are kept in clean quarters
before and after vaccination, and
veterinarians practice the utmost
sanitation in vaccinating, there should
be few losses from hog cholera. How
ever, if hogs are not thrifty or a few
have become sick before vaccination
the chances for loss becomes very
much greater. Serum and virus man
ufactured by the very best compan-
les should be used when it can pos
sibly be obtained.
Good preventive measures to fol
low in checking the spread Of hog
cholera are:
Keep out of your neighbours hog
lot. Keep others out of your hog lot.
Keep your dog tied up. Separate
well animals from sick. Shoot stray
dogs, cats and pigeons. Clean up lit
ter and manure in hog lots. Clean
and disinfect floors and walls of hog
houses with strong cresol dip. Use
quick lime in the yard where shaded
by buildings and fences.

To Open Roadway
On November Is

Chincoteague, Va, Oct. 23.-The
much-talked-of building of the sys-
TEN of roads and bridges from Chin
colleague island to the mainland,
connecting the island with a direct
road to Lecato, Va, is now a reality,
the only work to be finished is that
of covering the shells of which the
road is built with sand, and this will
be completed several days before the
formal opening.
The people of the island are max
ing big preparations for the formal
opening on November Is and the
whole Eastern Shore will celebrate
the opening of the road in a novel
way. Ex-President Woodrow Wilson,
Governor T.. Lee Trinkle and Senator
Claude A. Swanson have been sent
special invitations for the occasion.
Mr.. Wilson has written that he
will attend if his health will permit.
Governor Trinkle and Senator Swan
son have accepted the invitations.
Various committees have been APP
pointed to complete arrangements in
detail covering every feature of the
days program. Dinner and supper
will be provided for all visitors at a
nominal charge and will be served in
the auditorium of the new school
building, and the biggest day in the
islands history is expected. Chair
men of the various committees state
that they expect from 5000 to 1000
people to visit Chincoteague on the
roads opening day and that ample
accommodation will be provided to
take care of all who wish to cross the
bridge and visit the island.
The road from the mainland to
Chincoteague is AGA miles long. 1t
was built by throwing mud and sand,
40 feet wide. On top of this there
are several layers of shells that have
been rolled by heavy rollers, making
a solid foundation. The roadway is
wide enough for two cars to pass
without any trouble and is several
feet higher than the mark of the
highest tide. The road over the
marshland is connected by six bridges
the largest of which is over Queen
sound, which is a draw to allow boats
to pass.
Chincoteague is noted all over the
East for its fine quality of oysters
and CLANS. The island shipped last
year 1,462.722 gallons of shocked
oysters and l7,4S6 barrels of shell
oysters and CLAIMS. Seafood is its
chief industry, and with the new out
let by road giving n direct connection
by railroad to the north. east and
west, the island will probably become
one of the leading business centers
on the Eastern Shore.
