Forty-one men enrolled at the South Armory, for the artillery school for volunteers Tuesday evening. Others may enter at the meeting next week on Thursday evening. Although the greater part of the time was devoted to enrollment work and the outlining of plans by the instructors, instruction was given in the use of the 3-inch gun, the 4 and 7-inch guns, and the 6-inch howitzer. The instructors also explained the general use of the field artillery. A demonstration will be given at the meeting on Thursday evening.
A record will be kept of the class attendance and the names of those who have appeared regularly will be sent to the men who were interested in the Plattsburg Camp and to the War Department at Washington with the statement that they have completed the course and are fitted for recognition in time of need.
