In " Gale and Polden's Military Series " (Gale and

Polden, Chatham), we have :—The Non-Commissioned Officer's Guide to Promo- tion. This is in two volumes,—(1), From Lance-Corporal to Corporal, and (2), From Corporal to Sergeant. Each volume is copiously illustrated with plates, and furnished with a number of questions, for men do not rise without evs.mination, with the answers thereto. —Battalion Drill Made Easy, and Brigade Drill Made Easy,—all these are by William Gordon.
