THE BRIGADE STAFF By Colonel Gordon Davison, H. S. C. HIS year's Brigade Staff is to be congratulated upon the outstanding job it has done in fulfilling the requirements of its position. Under the compe- tent direction of Major Charles C. Holbrook, Brigade Adjutant, the admin- istration of the Brigade has been carried on in the finest way. Much of its work is done in an office, and little does anyone realize the great task which rests on their shoulders. Each staff oflicer besides being an adviser to the Brigade Commander, has his own department to care for. The work has been done well and the officers set an example which will be hard to equal. NOTE OF APPRECIATION By Colonel Gordon Davison, H. S. C. N BEHALF of the Officers and men of the Corps I want to take the last opportunity to express our deep-felt appreciation and gratitude for the aid and council given to us by the Faculty Military Instructors, Lt. Doerr fCentralj 3 Lt. Benner QMcKinleyD 1 Capt. Holmes CEasternj 3 Lt. Murphy CWesternl: Lt. Brown fRooseveltj. Taking up their work a year after the Corps had lost its Army Instructors they have carried the Corps on to a greater height and have endowed the Brigade with a new spirit of loyalty. No one can calculate the infinite worth of these men to all who have served under their guidance. They have been ready at all times to serve as a council, showing us the best way to carry on : they have lighted the way for us officers when we seemed to have lost our sense of direction, and in every way have made us feel that the time spent in the Corps was the most beneficial of all our school life. We know that the spirit of service upon which the Corps is based will not die so long as these men continue in their work. Twenty-eight
