The Madison Scouts Drum and Bugle Corps is going to be marching in front of Santa in the Macys Thanksgiving Day Parade. This is a local group that was just as well known in their time. These men competed in the St. Louis World Fair in 1904 and marched in parades and did exhibitions. They are the Modern Woodmen of America Drill Team from Madisons Camp Banyan. Can you see what they have at their sides - which they perform maneuvers with. Yes, axes! Note also the ax insignia on the front of their hats. I dont have a date for the picture, but I have found references to them in local papers from at least 1910 to 1923.
