Through his four years of service these are the ldeals before a boy in the military organiza- tion of our schools. In the course of training in which each one must bear his share and in which there is em- phasized the importance of the individual in his contribution to the level of group perform- ance, a line fellowship is developed. No other school activity leaves so lasting an impression on the graduate. A boy who once has been a member of the cadet corps continues his interest in the organization and the annual contests, in- to manhood and even advanced ages. Former cadets come back by thousands to the annual competitive drills. In this statement I have endeavored to deal with facts, not theories. I have tried to speak that which I know through an experience of many years in which I have never lost intimate touch with military training in the city of Washington. I know that military training of the right sort can establish in young men ideals. a sense of civic responsibility, a devotion to his fellows and such worthy ambitions as any father would desire his son to possess. Admiration for or tolerance of war has no place in the minds of these boys. Their thoughts are fixed upon the developments of a real skill and the enjoyment of a great game. ' ROBERT L. HAYCOCK AS A CADET MR. ROBERT L. HAYCOCK was a member of Company H, Western High School's iirst cadet company. During the first year of its existence this company was drilled by officers borrowed from the Central High School. The second year the company had its own officers, and Mr. Haycock was a sergeant. The competitive drill that year was held for the first time at the base- ball park. Previous drills took place in theaters. The following year, 1895, Company H, led by Captain .Ioe K. Taussig, of Western High School, won the competitive drill. This was Western's first victory. DEVITT SCHOOL '2961 UPTON STREET, N. W., Opposite Bureau of Standards WASHINGTON, D. C.
