Initiation fee amounts to three dollars and the dues are twenty-five cents each month. The drum and bugle Corps, a pic-

ture of which la shown In this edition of the TIMES, consists of thirty pieces. In the near future it is expected that twelve or fifteen fifes will be added making It one of the largest corps In the State.
