u. S. ARMY WILL
KEEP ARTILLERY
OUTFITS INTACT
Reorganization viii Be Along
Line of Experience Out
growing From Recent
Campaigns in France

WASHINGTON, April 3.-The
American army will retain per-
manently some of the artillery or
ganiza tions which are an outgrowth
Of the war. Among these, accord
ing to the reorganization plans
which have been approved, are 7omm
rifles, the weapons relied upon large
ly in the closing days of the war for
barrage work; S-inch and 9.2-lnch
field Howitzers; heavy railway guns,
inch mortars, Howitzers and rifles;
trench mortar units and anti-aircraft
batteries, including motorized ma
chine-gun units for the purpose OF
protecting troops on the march from
attack from the air
In addition to the sixty-one reg1-
ments of field artillery provided for
in the divisional organizations, there
are to be six regiments Of army ar
tillery to go with the field army Or
ganization to be erected. Three OF
these regiments will be armed with
155mm rifles, approximating six
inch, long-range gun, and the other
three with the eight-inch and 81
inch Howitzers for field operations,
to be mounted on or hauled by gaso-
of divisional artillery to go with the
twenty infantry divisions will be
armed with 75mm rifles or their
three-inch equivalent. and 4:7-inch
rifles and HoWitzerS. Each division
will have one regiment of light guns,
horse-drawn, one regiment of light
guns, motorized, and one regiment of
ATS motorized. The cavalry division
will have three regiments of horse
artillery. light guns. but with the
entire personnel mounted in order to
reduce the load on the gun teams and
fI1oY11 tn keen nm with the
cavalry brigades.
Personnel for the heavy batteries,
the S-inch and 9.2-inch guns, will
come from the coast artillery which
railway artillery. The railway guns
will constitute mobile coast defense,
but are to be available for use in
the field if circumstances require.
One departure from wartime or
ganization is the abandonment of
visions. Instead, a single trench
mortar regiment will be organized
as a part of the army artillery to
be assigned for duty by. the army
commander. The extensive use of
trench guns in France was due to
stabilized trench warfare conditions.
The divisional batteries lost their
usefulness except in special condi-
tons when the allied attack turned
the warfare into an open struggle.
For that reason the trench mortar
units of all divisions were among
| the first sent home.
Another new element is the assign
| ment of two anti-aircraft sectors
| to the army artillery. These units
! personnel also to come from the
| coast artillery, will include the lar
ger guns for fire against aircraft
and will be provided with search
lights to spot night raiders and
| sound flash range equipment to To-
cate either air raiders or concealed

easily off the ear, away from our
understanding. 1t takes little
thinking, a little imagining and feel
ing to get at it's true meaning. Play
ing SNOWFALL with ungloVed hands is
a pleasure which soon turns to pain.
There we have an experience by
which to measure the suffering OF
going barefoot in the snow.

no exaggeration about it. The peo-
pie are actually walking barefoot

Moth Made Holes
Some years ago there was a fash
ion among the well-tO-do over here
for open-work dresses, handmade
Ices" There is a fashion now in
,.-~a-work dresses - 'moth-made
Those people are fortunate who
have attics," says Nine. GorSki
They can search there, and, per-
haps, in an old forgotten trunk in a
dark corner, they may find a dress
theirs or their mothers or their
grandmother's, which the moths have
not corrupted so far that it cannot
be made to cover them. If they
do not find it there, they will not
find it anywhere. They will not be
able to have it made at their dress
makers, for there is no material to
buy
There is food to buy, a little of it,,
if you have great deal of money,
meat and flour and even sugar; but
there is no wool, there is no linen,
above all there is no leather. None

to be given to the returning prison
ers of war liberated by the Germans,
and stripped of their clothes before
they are liberated.
Stripped BY Huns
Not all OF their clothes you UNI
derstand," says Nine. Gorski, "but
of their shoes, and of their great
coats, and all else that is warm.
Then they are put in unheated cattle
cars and sent across the border. They
travel for hours across the great par
rem country where no help can reach
them, and they come to the first
Polish town, and the train stops
there.
The doors are opened and the
bodies of the dead are taken out
the dead who have frozen for lack
Of covering. From one train seventy
bodies were taken a little while ago
And the people had no clothes to give
the survivors, And they went on
through the cold. This is truth. 1t
is not fiction"
There is no fiction about anything
that is said about the conditions in
Poland. Not only in one city, or IN
one province, but all over the coun-
try they are past exaggertaion.
There is one cry which rings
around the world-the cry for
clothes. In answer to it Poland will
receive her share of the 10000 tons
of clothes which the Red Cross is
now collecting in the clothing drive
for the people of the allied coun-
tries.

Nice April Fool for
Georgia Peach Growers

April Fools day rolled in following
q blstering March wind and gave
many a Fort Valley peach growers
mind and heart stir early Tuesday
morning. Hastily they went to their
various farms to see if it could be
true-no peaches for 1919. Upon
close Investigation they found it all
Il joke. There was ice on nearly all
the farms that could not be broken
with the hand and the thermometers
registered low, but seventy-tiVe per
cent of the tiny fruit was inclosed
in the snug little shuck of the bios
son.
One fruit man said he was sur
prised to find that the cur-culio had
strong already fruit inclosed in the
little husk which means that every
grower will have to get busy spray
ing again as soon as the tiny peach
shows itself to the world. Perhaps
the unusually warm winter has had
something to do with this condition.
There was no frost and investig a-
ton in low places shows the fruit
in splendid condition despite the
chilling winds. The extremely dry
condition Of the trees saved the fruit.

OgIethorpe University
To Conduct Classes
Throughout Year

\ decided departure from the usual
program Of southern universities will
be inaugurated by Oglethorpe uni
versity, beginning July s, when
classes will be conducted throughout
the year. The academic year will be
divided into four terms, each of about
twelve weeks length. Besides the
standard college course offered, there
sWill be a summer school conducted
which will enable teachers to better
tit themselves for their work.
Students by close application, ii is
believed, will be able to accomplish
during the summer term what is Or
dinarily done during the nine months
of a college year. Two subjects can
be taken and in exceptional cases
three.
Adequate facilities for the housing
of students Will be afforded in the
spacious dormitories at the UNIVERSE
~. The regular tuition and boarding
charges will be in fierce. Women viii.
be admitted to all the courses offered.
The change in policy of the insti-
tuition was brought about by the de-
maud Of the students for the shorten
ing of the period of their educatloh
from four years to three years, whlcH
under the new scheme will be posi-
Bile. Other reasons were that stu
dents could make up deficiencies, ami
that teachers would be greatly bene-
flied by the special courses.
