By YARDBIRD

Well, folks, the boys certainly
put on the "dog" up at st. Andrews
School in Middletown last Sunday
afternoon Over fifty strong they
paraded up and down that gridiron
and several of the spectators were
heard to remark, that the Milford
officers must drill those fellows sew
en- days week to get them lined up
like that.
Many of the fellows, however.
thought that it would have been
mighty nice if few sandwiches
and some hot coffee could have been
handed out after the review.

With the arrival of the new uni
forms, the attendance has picked
up remarkably. However, fellows,
with all the soldiers hanging
around in the evenings, it is going
to take more than coveralls to
catch the girls.
The next big night for the COM
pany will be the Halloween parade
here next Friday, October 81. Ru-
NOR has it that the guard will lead
the parade. So be prepared to look
your best, don't let our officers
down. They are getting the same
pay as we and they like to get a
little praise from their .superiors.
