LIGHT INFANTRY
NOTES
______________
 

The new men drilled last night under Sergeant Wilson.

There were 44 men at the regular meeting Wednesday night. Interest is picking up.

The new uniforms are a great improvement over the old, both in quality and make.

Orders have been issued and drill will commence promptly at 8:20 hereafter every Wednesday night.

Invitaions for the inspection hop to take place Wednesday evening, Dec. 27, are being sent out. The committee will do their best, and friends of the company should help them make up the list. With the greatest care,some will be missed that should receive invitations. The inspecton will take place promptly at 8:15 o'clock, and will be over within a half hour. Programs will be issued and dancing will commence at once. Citizens not wishing to dance will be admitted during inspection if they care to come. The committee has decided to have extra good music and in every way keep up the standard of the Light Infantry entertainments.

The financial condition of the company is excellent, the personnel all that can be wished, good applications for membership are being made, the men drill with a snap seldom shown in a local military company, and there is every prespect of a continuance of their successful career.
