who Is suffering from a bad cold.
The company did not drill Satur-
day morning as the men were busy
signing muster rolls. Besides Pri-
vate Post, two others have been sent
nome on account of sickness, Corp.
Herrick and Private Greenwood.
Private Spring has been appoint
ed infirmary clerk in the 32nd Mich.
lnnrmary, Owosso. The organiza-
ton is feeling chesty because it is
hrst from Michigan to be mustered
INTO the service OF the u. S. When
an innrmary man NETS an II Com
pany man, he says, Huh, I dunno
as us regulars ought to have any
truck with you militiamen!" And
the Company man shoots back:
You wait. you pill-peddler, I'm
gonna be reg myself, before long"
capt. Hume and four men of his
lnhrmary were detailed by Major
Phillips, who was acting adjutant of
the brigade, to assist Sunday in the
administering of smallpox vaccine
to the 31st. The four men, who are
also on the dispensary detail. are
Sergt. Willoughby, Privates Metzger.
Robinson and Haas.
The clerks who are detailed for ex-
animation work are Privates Voight
and Horton. Private Waugh is or
DERBY to Major Lee and Capt. Hume.
Sergt. Frisbie is acting as drill SER
geant and Private Theo. Setback is
sanitary inspector for quarters. Pri-
Yates Shields and Covert are kitchen
detail.
Among the visitors who have been
in the street of the Owosso company
the past few days, are: Seth @. Pull
yer, James H. Copas. the latter has
sold one carload of meat to the
camp and while on his way here,
handed carloard of provi-
sions; Mrs. VIM. Beehler, Mr.. and
Mrs Thurston Stebbins and daugh-
ter, who called on Private Ste5bins;
Mr.. and Mrs. C. c. Wright and daugh-
ter. guests of Corp. Wright; Mrs. Nj.
F. Blair, guest of her son; Mrs. Flor
ence Case.
When Lieut.. Harry Arnold, U. S.
Medical Reserve Corps, returned on
Monday morning. after spending Sun
day at home in Owosso, he was &C
companied to the camp ground by
Mr.. and Mrs. Lee Woodland and chill
dren, who stopped off on their way
to Topinabee, and spent an enjoyable
day Oh the grounds.
Lieut.. Arnold, by the way, is du-
plicating the hit that Capt. Hume
has made in the service He is very
popular with his associates on the
examining board and with the off,
GERS who have come in contact with
him. One brigade officer remarked
the other day: Knowing Hume as /
do, and having had the opportunity
to size up Arnold, | would say you
Owosso people know how to pick
medicos."
If the government will release
Lieut.. Arnold from his detail here
and assign him to the 32nd Infirmary
for duty, he will go south with Capt.
Hume's unit. The military board
rendered an invitation to Lieut.. Arm
old to take on" and he will be glad
to do so if the assignment can be
made.
Visitors were entertained Sunday
afternoon by concert by the 33rd
Inf. band. That organization was
never better and was warmly ap-
plauded.

furnishings. Gray Is always neat and
trim looking. and when completed with
prettily cut Swiss aprons finished with
small black satin bows is attractive.
Though the color invasion has its
ardent followers. black for afternoon
and dinner service in conservative
homes will remain popular. Many
hos;esses allow their maids 70 vary
their morning uniform by wearing
white. pink or blue linen or chambray.
The apron Is a very important ac-
ccssory in the maids uniform. The
