Each club member, as part of
the carefully planned two-year
course, grows two ;ayes of forage
crops alongside his father's new
seedlings. The area is divided into

Included also in the club programs,

for advertising that the Regular
Army uses, but if you read this
and are: A young man between the
ages of 16 and 55, come in and
join our Battery. We personally
guarantee you a night out away
from all domestic relations,
Along the same theme, Sgt. New-
ell will take you into his bugle
band. If you arc breathing on
entry he will teach you to breathe
byAirnhera; teach you to play one
note ,each night; teach you to use
your initiative to go on further,
So whether you arc musically in-
clined or not, come in, Even if you
don't sound too good for a while,
if Gnr. Rintoul can't keep time to
your music he can drown you out
on his drums, bass, mark TV, with
sticks and carrying strap.
Any career you wish to learn
will be taught if possible. If impas-
sible, you will be led quietly into
the Q.M. stores, given a good fit
(some soldiers take one at this
point, a fit that is) and left there.
That's what happened to me. Any-
how they pay me. True enough, it
is little enough on entry but you
can earn more through something
or other. There are some good ex-
amples of this walking around in
here. Coma in and take a look
around.
