.- '1'HE BAYONh5'fi i9 THE: INSPECTION. p i' of military service, hospital, artillery, signal 'corps, engineering, etc., and they were all satisfactorily, if not ex- cellently, performed. After these drills was a short platoon, company and battalion drill, in both close and extended order. Dinner and a short rest followed this, and then we were ready for more. ' The afternoon was entirely occupied by military field problems, three in number, namely: Advance guard,' rear guard and outpost. All of the oiiicers taking part in this were thor- oughly, questioned concerning the work, and the way that most of the questions were answered was a credit to the cadetfand to'the'schdol. As it was necessary for Captain Hall to leave at 3:10 'p.V m., our drills were cut short, but every one went down town 'until' 5 'o'clock,.rejoicing that he had passed the test. ., At the request of the few surviving members of 'the Grand Army of the Republic stationed in Germantown, the cadet corps acted as escort in their annual Memorial Day services. The band, of course, went along and showed up well in comparison with the professional band present. The bat- talion wasin' command of 'Major Crane ' andithepvolley firingwhich 'was done as partiiof 'the services, was fine. i With practically no drill' at -all with blanks, the corps did very fwell and deserves to be complimented on its 1 egccellent showing.
