It was sald that the exercise will be held at Fort Meade, Md., one of the largest Army posts in this section of the coun- try, where there is plenty of land for the maneuvers incident to the instruc- tion proposed. Local Guard headquarters has not yet received any indication as to what offi- cers or units will be used in the exer- cise, as the first instructions received from the headquarters of the 3d Corps Area at Baltimore, Md., said that details Would be forthcoming as soon as it was ascertained what amount of funds are avallable for the maneuvers. It is pos- sible, it was said, that it would take the battalion echelons. As the 121st Regiment of Engineers of the local Guard is the 29th Division Engineer outfit, it is probable that some of its officers will be sent to Meade, and later will go to Camp Ritchie when the troops of the organization take their annual period of field training. It was said to be probable, however, that very few, if any, of the enlisted personnel of the regiment, would go to Meade. me information as to what enlisted perdonnel will be required for the exer- cise is expected to be forthcoming soon, however, as the original circular on the matter suggested that pmmrt steps be taken to train this personnel so that it would function well when the maneu- vers are started. Enlisted personnel of the local Guard are expected to appear in & few months in the new style Pershing cap, which has been adopted as the standard head- gear of the Army. Requisitions have been submitted covering the quantits necessary to equip the present personnel, in accordance with instructions just re- celved. The War Department said that upon the receipt of requisitions from all of the States, or as many as desire the new caps, decision will be made as to the number that can be procured this year and steps will be taken to have them manufactured and issued. The further use of the old style caps has been ordered discontinued by the Secretary of War. Members of the Guard, it was said, will be given preference over graduates of recognized colleges and universities, R. O. T. C. units, Reserve officers and members of the enlisted Reserve Corps in the appointment as flying cadets for air service training in the Army. Candidates, however, must agree, prior to appointment, to serve three years, one as & flying cadet and two as; a second leutenant of the Air Corps Reserve on active duty, or as a com- missioned officer in the Regular Army, unless sooner relieved. In compliance with a request from Col. J. Miller Kenyon, in charge of ar- ranging a meeting to celebrate the an- niversary of the birth of Abraham Lin- coln to be held at the Presbyterian Church, John Marshall place and C street, on the night of February 9, Gen. Stephan has designated Col. John W. Oehmann, Maj. E. H. Grove and Mauj. Walter W. Burns to represent the local Guard. Pirst Lieut. Willlam F. Bullis, Battery B, 260th Coast Artillery, has accepted & commission in the Army Reserve Corps Four units of the local Natinal Guard mustered sufficient men at the first drili of the new year to attain the classifi- cation of superior in attendance. The 29th Division Military Police Compary heads the list with 100 per cent of its personnel present, while the other three, with their percentages, were: The Med- ical Department Detachment, 260th Conast Artillery, 100; Headquarters De- tachment and Combat Train, 260th Coast Artillery, 93.75, and the Head- ggt‘{’un Detachment, 29th Division, ‘The other units, in their respective classifications, with percentages, follow: Excellent, Headquarters Detachment, 29th Division Special Troops, 87.51.

Reckord, com- manding the Maryland National Guard, has_informed the 29th Division head- quarters here of the transfer of First Lieut. Arthur A. Callahan from duty with Company M, 1st Maryland Infan- try, to division postal officer of the 29th National Guard Division, to fill an existing vacancy. Lieut. Callahan, a former resident of Annapolis, Md., now resides in this city, where he is em- ployed by the Chesapeake & Potomac Telephone Co. and is a student at the George Washington University. In an effort to encourage the re-en- listment of personnel, instructions have been issued by the local brigade head- quarters to unit commanders to present to personnel of their companies or de- tachments all medals authorized for issue upon re-enlistment following the completion of a three-year enlistment. It is felt, a general order says, that these medals will be more appreciated and of more value to the individual and the organization if issued immediately upon re-enlistment and unit command- ers have been instructed also to make the presentation of medals at the first assembly of the entire company follow- ing the re-enlistment of the individual concerned. The order requires commanders to make a*Yeport to brigade headquarters immediately following the presentation and must give the name, rank and or- ganization of the individual. Com- manders must, in the future, make a ceremony of the presentation of such medals. It has been the practice heretofore to withhold the presentation of medals until some assembly of the entire regi- ment or other unit, usually at the an- nual encampments, and in some in- stances these occurred some months after they were earned by the indi- vidual. All cooks and mess sergeants of the Guard have been detailed to attend the school for cooks to be held weekly at the Coast Artillery Armory at Water and O streets southwest, the first as- sembly of which was held last week. The schools will be in lieu of all other drills for mess sergeants and cooks until the course closes. The men will be required to wear their uniforms at the school and unit commanders have been authorized to allow tnem to keep their equipment at home. Regimental, battalion and separate battalion commanders were urged to attend the first lecture in the course. All personnel assigned to take the course must be reported to brigade headquar- ters. First Lieut. Joseph F. Fitzgerald, 121st Engineers, has been assigned as attendance officer, and has been detalled to attend the school. Personnel desig- nated to attend the courses has been instructed to proceed direct to the school, without previously reporting at the North Capitol Street Armory. The organization of this school is in accordance with a plan to have these men trained in the purchase and prepa- ration of food for the troops while in the field and to fit them to begin this important function as soon as they go to camp. Heretofore the principal com- plaints against the food service have | been during the early days of an en- campment, before those charged with preparing the foods settled down in their jobs. During the armory drill pe- riod they receive little or no_training i | in this respect, ibut the Guard officials ' have determined that so far as possible ing American patent leather shoes. culty in the future by training the men | during the armory drill period. | Corpl.
