State Encampment Expensive.
The State Military Board reports that
the recent encampment of the Michigan
National Guard of the Hansen military
reservation near Crawling cost $4,000
which is considerably above the expense
of any previous camp. Commenting
upon this fact, Maj M. j. Phillips Of
this city, states that the expenses were
scrutinized as carefully as in years past
and that the unusual expense arose
because of the attempt to take advan.
tage of the object lessons in modern
warfare from the fields of European
. rife" The expense of holding the en-
of the National Guard is
bound to increase, and cot decrease is
the opinion of Major Phillips.
"Two matters especially have been
shown by the war in Europe that must
be met by every military establishment
worthy the name. Machine gun prac-
tice is one of them and what is known
as regimental infirmaries is the
other. BY regimental infrmaries is
meant the system of reaching and con-
veying the wounded rapidly to the
rear"
