War OFFICERS
FORM CHAPTER

All commissioned officers of the
Army. Navy, and Marine Corps are
invited to attend meeting on Deem
Der 2, for the purpose of organizing
the local chapter of the American Of
ficers of the Great War.
The American Officers" as the So
ciety is known, is the only national
veterans association which admits to
membership officers of every branch
of the Army, Navy and Marine Corps,
thus making it the ready spokesman
and the common social meeting ground
for the commanding element of the
whole armed forces of the United
States.
national membership campaign
has been quietly under way for some
weeks, and the present membership,
already numbering several thousand
is scattered throughout every state in
the Union. and in Canada Alaska
Central and South America, the West
Indies, the Pacific Islands, Asia
Europe and Africa.
The general staff of the society, at
national headquarters in Detroit,
Michigan, announces that it is planned
to launch not less than 140 local
chapters on December 2. Pensacola is
ter organiza ton on that date.
The objects of the American Off
GERS may be broadly divided into three
parts:
l.. To establish a nation wide or
ganization of highly intelligent men,
which will have a great influence in
the right direction on matters gen.
orally pertaining to civic or national
betterment
.. To form medium through
which officers of the Army. Navy
and Marine Corps may efficiently for
mulate such policies and take such
united action as shall be advisable or
necessary in the protection of the in
terests they have in common.
3. To perpetuate the friendships be-
tween the men who served in the late
war, and to bring the ex-officer into
close social contact with the men with
whom he has the most in common
the men who are destined to be the
leaders in every phase of our nation
al life.
Precedent for such a society is had
in the organization of Revolutionary
war officers known as the Society of
Cincinnati { of which George Wash
ington was the first president.) Fur
ther precedent Is PROVIDED by the Mill
tary Order of the Loyal Legion. the
organization of Civil War officers.
Both of these societies have had a
very large influence on the welfare and
progress of our country. Members of
the Loyal Legion and hereditary mem
bers both of the Society of Cincin
natl and the Loyal Legion prize
very highly this proof of leader
ship in the two most important con-
flicts in which the United States was
involved prior to the Great War.
Plans for the meeting on December
2, were discussed at meeting of the
local members last night. Major J.
Whiting Hargis was appointed chair |
man of the committee to arrange de-
tails.
During the next two weeks a local
campaign will be carried
on so that, the quota of members re-
quired by the general staff of the So
ciety will have been reached prior to
December 2. The following were elect
ed on the membership COMMITTEES: Lit.
M. A. Quina, Capt. s. r. M. Kennedy,
chairman.
There will probably be quite a
large social side to the activities of
the chapter here, and it is fully ex-
pected that the majority of our ex-

LEECH AS WEATHER PROPHET
Those Familiar With Small Creatures
Habits Can ForeteIl Changes
That Are at Hand.

An excellent weather prophet can be
made by placing a leech in glass jar
of water.
If the weather is to continue fine
the leech lies motionless at the bot
tom Of the jar, and rolled together in
a spiral form. If it is to rain, either
before or after noon, it will be found
to have crept up to the top of its lodg-
ing, where it will remain till the
weather is settled.
If we are to have wind, the poor
prisoner gallops through his limpid
habitation with amazing swiftness,
and seldom rests till 1t begins to blow
hard.
If a remarkable storm of thunder
and rain is to succeed, the leech, for
some days before, lodges almost con-
tinually without water, and gives itself
up to violent throes and convulsive-like
motions. In frost, as in clear summer
weather, it lies constantly ut the bot
tom; and in snow, as in rainy weather,
it pitches it's dwelling on the very
mouth of the jar.
