EXPLANATION.
Credits are given for excellence in all the departments of effort, Academic, Home, Athletic, and Military. The cadet receiving the highest number of credits wins the gold medal offered by Mr. R. D. Worrell, of Mexico, to the most meritorious or model cadet. Demerits are given for inefficiency in every department. It is an extremely easy thing to get a demerit, without special effort or in spite of fair effort. To understand the record, A means demerits under io; B, between io and 50; C, between 50 and 100; D, between 100 and 200; E, above 200. Distinguished cadets are allowed certain privileges, in the discretion of the Superintendent, not to be enjoyed by delinquents. The scholarship medal offered by Mr. Chas. A. Buckner, of Mexico, was won by Captain Shelby C. Gass, of Audrain. The gold medal offered by Mr. R. D. Worrell, of Mexico, was won by Lieutenant Mulkey C. Field, of Fort Worth, Texas. The gold medal offered by Rev. A. W. Kokendoffer, D.D., of Sedalia, Mo., for the best drilled cadet was won by Sergeant Ralph B. Hendershot, of Hebron, Nebraska. The gold medal offered by Mr. Joe Barth, of Mexico, for the second best drilled cadet was won by Sergeant Chas. Alvin Varnon, of Mexico. ii

MUSIC DEPARTMENT.
It would be out of place and certainly untimely to discuss now a thing so universally recognized as the value of music in a school like this. The fact is, it is indispensable. The students are shut in, as it were, from the usual pleasures of society to prepare for the sterner realities of life. When worn in body and mind, music comes to offer refreshment, contentment, enjoyment, mental activity, and moral advancement. It engages the nobler part of a boy at a time when seducing spirits would run riot in the soul.
INSTRUMENTAL. Individual lessons are given on any orchestral or band instruments and piano. Class instruction is given in Band, Orchestra, Chorus, and Glee Clubs. The charge for lessons on any instrument is $5.00 per month in advance, As ic at sight he is assigned a place in the soon as a student is capable of reading music Cadet Band or the Missouri Military Academy Orchestra. The charge per year for use of piano is $10.00. Those studying other than piano will furnish their own instruments.
VOCAL. Individual and class lessons may be had by the cadets under a specialist at the usual rates charged for such instruction.
