THE PORTION ADOPTED IN THE ARMY.

1st. A club is held by the handle, pendent on each side (Plate II.

fig. 1);--that in the right hand is carried over the head and left

shoulder, until it hangs perpendicularly on the right side of the spine

(Plate II. fig. 2); that in the left hand is carried over the former,

in exactly the opposite direction (Plate II. fig. 2), until it hangs

on the opposite side; holding both clubs still pendent, the hands are

raised somewhat higher than the head (Plate II. fig. 3); with the clubs

in the same position, both arms are extended outward and backward

(Plate II. fig. 6); they are lastly dropped into the first position.

All this is done slowly.
