The Colonel, whose rank is the highest be- stowed by the Corps, conducts a minute in- spection of every company in the Brigade at least once during the year. He commands the Corps in all Brigade formations and at public appearances. At other times he makes infor- mal visits to the regiments, supervising the drills. He issues general and specific orders from time to time, orders which he deems necessary and which are not under the admin- istration of the Professor of Military Science and Tactics and his assistants.

M V Example? Ah, creative youth no more Shall imitate or emulate the past, But he shall carve alone his destiny, Boldly expressing to the world HIMSELF, Suppressing naught, obeying his desire. So speaks the modern age to modern youth, This freedom-it is dear but dangerous, Held well in leash, a power omnipotent, But unrestrained, it will destroy itself. Freedom to think, to dream, to do, to bc, Freedom within the bounds of others' rights ls yours: this is your precious heritage. 'Tis liberty we give within the law, For law is first, the law of God and man, The common product of the common brain. Obedience to the law, the Hrst demand The State makes of its people, voting and old. And while it yet unviolated stood, All warring tribes together held as one, In concord close and harmony supreme. But when the Knights forgot their fealty, Suspicion, petty jealousies, and strife Reigned everywhere. And then tl1e Kingdom fellg And chaos ruled, and the old order passed. So has it ever been. Youth of Today, Things glad and beautiful we give to yon To cherish and to love throughout the years. And may you keep them glad and beautiful And spread abroad more sweetness and more light. ln this our day of freedom, yours the right H To MAKE the law, when made then follow it Unquestioning, tmswerving, unafraid. Thus urge the truth and lead the timid on, And make the world a better place for allf- OBEDIENCE TO THE LAW , your goal and guide 26

Captain Morse Allen Regimental Adjutant Central Stanley VV. Hall Regimental Sergeant Major Central Ben Burch Regimental Color Sergeant Central Lieutenant Colonel Albert W. Small Regimental Commander Central The First Regiment By Lieut. Col. Albert W. Small, H. S. C. fag,-7,450 line of sealps of last ie' ' d b winnin ' , PMs,p.,'!4 year was so increase y D g A the Regimental Competitive, the lg iffgii Guard of Honor Competition, the wg. mfr-'15' Bridage Review, by getting hi-st, third, and fourth in the Battalion Competition, by forcing her adversaries to bite the dust in the Company Competitive Drill, as well as being so proficient in War Games and Rifle, that the aggregate could well make her proud. The pace set by Central's Banner Year is one that Central will have a hard time in ex- ceeding, but it is one which is being fast equalled. Captain Rodney Hatcher has led his com- pany F to great success so farg he has the Brigade Review and Guard of Honor Competi- tion hanging now in his belt. Much is ex- pected from his company May 25. Captain Stiinson, of the First Regiment Band, reports excellent progress. Central is just proud of them for having Won from Mc- Kinley. Major Donovan, Assistant Professor of Mil- itary Science and Tactics, is one of the reasons for Central's scoop of last year, he will be a great contributing factor this year also. Cen- tral, having started with one more company than usual and having filled the vacancies with February men, feels that she has nine almost equal chances of getting her eagle feathers in the big event.
