VOL TING IN FILE. 



5S 



To replace the columns in their accustomed order, 

 the teacher should have this movement executed a 

 second time. When the columns are going forward 

 on the right hand, the order will be given : 



I. Prepare to volte in file. 



In this movement the same principles and the 

 same means are used as in a private lesson ; the 

 leaders, however, describe a larger circle proportion- 

 ate to the length of their columns, and at the end 

 their horses' heads should be about three feet be- 

 hind the tails of the last horses in their respective 

 columns. The other pupils then, in turn, execute 

 the movement upon the same ground as the leader. 

 The leaders having moved two thirds down one of 

 the long sides, the teacher will order : 



2. Volte VI file ; 



and, when the columns are again going forward on 

 the right hand, 



I. Prepare to half -volte m file. 



The leaders turn to the right, describe their half- 

 circle, and go forward on a diagonal line ending just 

 behind the last rider in the column ; once there, they 

 turn to the left and fall into line, being duly followed 

 by each pupil over the same ground. 



When the leaders are about eighteen feet from 

 the corner of the school, the teacher will order : 



2. Half -volte in file.
