BOYS AT DRILL
PUBLIC DISPLAY GIVEN HAMILTON TECHNICAL SCHOOL [from our own correspondent] HAMILTON, Friday The 300 boys attending the Hamilton Technical High School have undergone! a week's military training at Rugby Park, and to-<lay they gave a public display illustrating the work they had carried out during the week. The exhibition took place in Seddon Park, and was watched by numerous spectators. The majority of the boys had joined the school only a fortnight ago, and the work was very creditable in the circumstances. They were instructed by Captain L. J. Day, the company officers and non-commis-sioned officers, and by permanent staff non-commissioned officers.
Colonel J. E. Duigan, officer commanding the Northern Command, witnessed to-day's demonstration, and spoke appreciatively of the efficiency displayed.
