The commanding officer of each post is directed to appoint a commi sloned subordinate to superintend the training of the men and the games. The department will have an athletic board to supervise this new feature of soldier life. One day in every month will be set apart for a field .day, on which the en- listed men will compete for medals and badges. In addition to the regular events thers will be numerous purely military con- tests. It will be possible for officers and men to get leave to visit other posts to take part in athletic meets, football or baseball games. All expenses of main- taining the new feature will be defrayed by charging admission fees to the compe- titions. The order allows struggles for honors on foot, on horseback or in boats by in- dividuals or by teams of men from the various organizations. Reports on the progress of the work will be rendered to the department commander monthly. On field days all drills and fatigue duties will be omitted, so that all may enjoy the oc- casion. It is provided that when a man shal twice win a prize in any particular event he shall be classed as an expert and can compete only with men who have done equally well. There will be a dead-body- rescue race on horses: an equipment race, in which the competitors must be dressed in heavy marching order; a light march- ing order race, broadsword contests and a blank cartridge race. In the latter event cartridges will be placed on the ground at regular intervals, The athletes will run from the starting point, gathering the cartridges one by one to the goal. The winner will be he who first loads his rifle with the ammunition and shoots it into the air. Varfous other of the new events will be equally inter- esting, and the meets are assured of a good patronage in advance. —eee — Mail Contracts Extended. VANCOUVER, B.
