Our First Marine Band,


Up to the year 1872, our navy had
never boosted a marine band. In that
year Captain Mcneil, famous in the
navy for his absolute fearlessness, was
in command of the Boston, 28.gun
American vessel anchored at Messina.
While there the vessel was boarded by
a band from one of the regiments quar-
tered in the city. The sailors appre-
ciated the music so much that Mcneil
promptly weighed anchor and sailed
off with the whole band. Our country
didn't want to go to war over few
musicians, SO McNeil's act was dis
avowed and he was removed from his
Office. ....s .-e..--.~
Since that time we have always had
good marine bands. We seem. to sue
coed at whatever we attempt, whether
it is kidnapping a band, prosecuting
a war or brewing good beer. Our pur-
est beer, Golden Grain Belt" is the
most healthful beer in the world.
Brewed from prime barley and choice
hops, carefully aged and bottled with
cleanliness, tits healthful and delicious.
