FIRST PUBLIC PARADE TODAY

Troop* Will Be Reviewed by Superior Officers and Others. The weather .permitting Company M will hold its first public parade Wednesday afternoon at 5 o’clock at Riverside ball park. The company will be divided into four companies, each commanded by an officer or a non-commissioned officer and will be reviewed by Lt. Col. Healey and Major Tuteur. By making the division into companies a battalion can be simulated. The hour of 5 was selected because there is no appropriate place to hold the parade after night. The ceremony is a very pleasing one and those who can should attend. Automobiles will be parked at the parade field and the grandstand will be available for others.
