VmNtny IMlled on Htreets Friday
Night Armory Being Placed
in Shape, for Use
'I'll,- Iln lint!.- tnmt Oiinrris now
number 112 members and new mem
bers are daily Joining it is expected
that the membership will soon reach
the limit 150 members. On the
call of Captain R. C. Strong a meet
ing was held at the city ball Friday
ovenlng. August 31. The members
turned out well it will be necessary
to put a few in the guard house for
non-attendance, however, if they are
not present at roll call at the next
meeting, which is to be held at the
armory in the rear of the city hall,
Friday evening September 14.
Carpenters are at work this week
installing the new floor in the fire
department plunge building which
has been donated to the company 'for
use as an armory. This work will
be finished by the last of the week
and the building will then be ready
for squad drills, storage of equip
ment in the lockers, etc.
The members of the company
were drilled in squads Friday even
ing on the streets, me rookies
started off excellently and were soon
able to keep step fairly well, outside
of Trlvate John Wiker. John claimed
that the rest of the company didn't
keep step with him very well and
that occasionally they were all out of
step except him. Corporal Harry
Coursey, who is short in stature
found it necessary to protest once in
u while against the long steps taken
by Sergeants Taah and hein and
Privates Sallows and Nelson, all of
whom are up rather high in the
world. Private Rodgers thought
the officers should be made V go
through some of the evolutions
themselves, especially when Sergeant
.lack Hawew tried to demonstrate to
the rookies that when he said "left
foot" he meant "right foot." Danny
Lyons, one of the company cooks,
better known as "Dlnty Moore," was
In auch a hurry to get to drill that
he forgot his hat and coat, lis was
well provided for with a horse blan
ket which some unsuspecting villag
er had unwisely placed over bla
Ford car.
