MILITARY COMPANY'S PLEASANT SMOKER

Company I. M. N. G., gave a smoker Friday evening which was a most enjoyable affair. Quite an elaborate banquet was served, after which pipes and cigars were called into requisition. Col. H. S. Dean acted as toastmaster and J. E. Beal, S. W. Beakes, Maj. Harrison Soule, Capt. Petrie and Lieut. Wilson responded to the call of the toastmaster, who also did his full share with reminiscences to make up the evening's enjoyment. Music was furnished by Fischer's Mandolin club and by Herman Meyer with the zither.

The company is a fine body of young men and exceedingly well behaved. The armory has been well kept and never looked in better shape than at present. Quite a little of the paraphernalia of a gymnasium is on hand in it. Just at present the membership of the company is small, but if the families of the young men just growing up in Ann Arbor knew how much good military training does, the ranks of the company would be rapidly filled with a desirable class of new men.
