TWO ELEPHANTS RETURNED

Express companies nave from time
to time handled many curious and
unusual live consignments, but prob
ably no shipment has ever aroused
more interest than the recent send
ing of two full-sized elephants by
express a distance of nearly 100
miles, in northern Ohio. Shortly be-

The oldest and best families in the
A. E. F.-a body which includes both the
F. I. F.'s and the F. F. VS., those who
came over in the Mayfower and those
who came over in the transports-still
adhere to the quaint, graceful and alto
gether pretty custom Of saluting all COM
missioned officers; and the officers, in
their turn, still adhere to the custom Of
returning the salutes Of enlisted men.
The same custom is prevalent in the
army of France, the British Expedition
airy Forces, and the other social organ
izations now spending the season in
Europe.
Because of the multitude of uniforms,
and the variations in insignia now
prevalent in France, much confusion is
apt to arise, however. Accordingly, few
simple rules may herein be set down, for
the guidance Of the newcomer and the
brushing-up Of the oldtimer.
In general, it can be said that the
best rule to follow Is this: When in
doubt, salute. If the guy you salute re-
turns it the chances are that you were
right. If he doesn't the chances are that
either he is wrong or you were wrong,
or both. You can't take back salute
once you have tipped it to bird, but
you can cover your breach Of etiquette
by witty bon mot that will more than
make up for your faur pas.
For example: If, in the gathering
dusk you mistake Y. M. c. A. fan for
an officer and salute him, the proper
thing to do is to stop him and say, cob,
hell! I'm damn sorry! Honest, thought
you wuz the Old Man himself" That
puts the Y. M. guy entirely at his ease
and relieves him of any feeling Of en-

isn't salute at all, but mockery.
When in a town full Of officers Of aIl

what the insignia means-whether
they're non-coms or otherwise-the best
rule to follow is to salute every Other
