PLAN To RAISE
INF FANTRY HERE
ARDMoRE POST AMERICAN MILL
TARY LEAGUE WILL MEET
TONIGHT.
OPEN TO The PUBL
All Interested in Preparedness Are
Urged to Be Present at Session in
Cruce Building, West Main Street.
Purpose Of League.

The Ardmore post of the American
Military league meets tonight for reg
uar drill and business session at the
Cruce building, West Main street Not
only are all members requested to be
present, but every one who is in sym
pathy with preparedness should be
present
The Ardmore post was organized
about a month ago Its purpose is to
organize at Ardmore and in Carter
county a battalion Of infantry, consist
ing of four companies The nucleus
will become a part OF the regiment be-
ing organized in the state by the
league. Since the state movement
began, it is planned to have two regi-
ments instead Of one; that is, one Of
infantry and one Of cavalry.
The plan Of the league is set forth
in the call for recruits for the organi-
2ation of two regiments, with every
officer a veteran and a gentleman,
and every man a soldier" Under the
call the men are left free to select
their officers; and when the call
comes for volunteers. as it is certain
1t will almost any minute, this regi-
ment will be Immediately ready for
duty
The league call states:
"As before suggested you are eX-
pected TO rally recruits in your com
munity. When the call comes have
them sign an enlistment petition and
elect provisional officers who will
meet at Oklahoma City, upon wire
from headquarters, to organize and
volunteer as complete regiments. BY
this means we can save at least ten
days time, and more than likely be
the first troops to take the field.
You will see that the men are left
free to recommend their company Of
ficers, just as the line officers will in
turn be left free to recommend their
field officers. The regiments must
be selfgoverning. The private soldier
will bear the burden Of the war and
he has right to say in whose hands
he puts his life, and to say who shall
instruct, feed and clothe him, guard
him against disease and protect him
from OppIeShlOn. ne mas IlgnI 10
officers who can be cOunselors and
friends.
Advise headquarters at once the
prospect for recruiting regiments of
this type. and as to whether the men
prefer infantry or cavalry.
"All enlisted men must be of good
character, sound in mind and body
and free from obvious defects, such
as cock eyes, bad teeth weak eyes, de.
fectiyc hearing, broken bones not
properly set or broken foot arch not
more than 30 years old, and II under
is must have written consent of father
or guardian and II married must have
consent OF regimental commander"
