For the first time in the history of the local cavalry regiment, the 4th Hussars will undergo evening drill at the armouries, probably next fall, | instead of the usual annual training camp in June, held either at Barrie- field or Petawawa camp. However, the Prescott squadron, under the command of Major A. B. Handcock, M.C., will go into camp at their own headquarters sometime next month for nine days' training. Owing to the reduction in the militia estimates, and in common with units of every branch of the ser- vice in Canada, the 4th Hussars have been allotted training for only about thirty per cent, of the total strength of the regiment, This will allow one of the local squadrons to train approxiamtely 60 officers and men in the armouries here next September and October. The regiment is stationed as fol- lows: Headquarters, "A" and "B" squadrons at Kingston; and "Cc" squadron at Prescott, Ont, P.W.O.R. at Ranges.
