Editor's Notes.
PERHAPS the outstanding item of Regimental
interest, during the past quarter, is the move
of the Depot from Hamilton Barracks to
Maryhill Barracks, Glasgow, of which a full
account appears under" Depot Notes."
We heartily congratulate our Territorial
Battalions upon their success during the
recent special Recruiting Fortnight. Each
of them, as will be seen from their" Battalion
Notes," have added very considerably to
their numbers, and we understand the 6th
Battalion is now the strongest Infantry
Battalion in the Territorial Army.
In our last edition we published a List of
our Subscribers, and we regret to find that a
considerable number of those, from whom
subscriptions were due, have not responded
to the notification.
We feel sure this is due to an oversight
on their part and hope that all subscriptions,
now due, especially those under "2nd Reminder"
on page 61, will be renewed as lioon
as possible. We also hope that all officers,
Regular and Territorial, who have not yet
subscribed, including those who join on first
appointment, will become annual subscribers.
Those readers who have replied to our
article in last edition with regard to the
financing of our journal, unanimously recommend
the raising of the officers' subscription
from 5s. to 10s. per annum. This would, as
we pointed out, compare favourably with
other Regimental journals.
As we have the necessary Funds to carry
on at present we do not propose taking any
action until it is absolutely necessary, but we
take this opportunity of informing our readers
that we shall probably be obliged to raise the
subscription accordingly next year.
We invite the attention of our readers to
the paragraph in the Regimental Association
Notes, in which the Secretary, Major John
Grant, appeals for gifts, in the form of heads,
skins, pictures, trophi"es, and ornaments, for
the decoration of the Regimental Club in
Glasgow.
