Meaning Of Chevrons
Distinction Between Overseas and
States Service Shown by Order
of War Department.
HAT CORDS MEAN ORGANIZATION

Chevrons, insignia, hatcords, various
parts Of the uniform and leggings, as
are worn by soldiers returning home
after having been honorably dis
charged, are puzzling to those not IA
miliar with military regulations. The
misuse and abuse Of various army reg
ulations regarding dress serve to
arouse curiosity on the part of civil
ians, and interest on the part of sol
diers |r.@ H-
The wearing of overseas caps, the
small, olive drab pointed skull cap, by
men who have not been overseas, is
not only in violation to regulation, but
displays great disrespect towards Am
orleans who have seen foreign service
on French, English Belgian, italian,
Siberian and other fields 1t robs them
Of distinctive and significant privil-
eye to which only they are entitled,
and which a million or more Buddies
regret they couldn't earn to deserve.
Overseas soldiers also have the priv
ilege Of wearing what are known as
WRAP leggings" or spiral leggings.
The wearing Of such leggings is pro-
hibited in camps and environments, and
soldiers are often stopped by military
police in many cities for wearing them
However, many enlisted men wear
wrap leggings available to them fol
dress wear.
Service cheyrOns and wound stripes
are of Importance. Overseas men wear
on their left arm a god .V-shaped stripe
for each six months Of service cover
there" and a blue stripe for each
period less than six months and over
three months Soldiers who served in
their home country may wear a silver
stripe for each six months period, but
none has been prescribed for service
of less than six months. The war de-
partment recently ordered that every
discharged man be supplied with two
chevrons to be worn on their left sleeve
to show service to their country. This
order is understood by some to mean
| that they are to be worn on the sleeve
of civilian coats.
Wound stripes are gold V-shaped
bars worn, one for each time wounded
on the right sleeve.
The various hat cords worn by dis
charged soldiers designate their brancn
of service and several Of the latest
"prescribed" by the war department
may have to be explained.

SO far as possible the programs Of
the War Savings Societies will be
worked out on pleasant and attrac-
tive lines. It is planned to have each
member take an active part from time
to time. The study done in preparing
papers or short talks before the So
ciety will educate the members in the
matters which the clubs are organ
lied to teach. *
Intensive Preparation.
Between now and February 18th
there will be meetings of War Savings
society organizers in many parts of
the district at which speakers under
direction Of the central committee viii
outline the purposes and plans of the
societies.
Although the societies are now being
organized for the year 1919, it has
been announced at Washington that
they will be kept alive and encour-
aged to continue permanently. The
two-fold purpose of maintaining the
societies will be to continue giving
the people aid in their efforts to save
and to aid steadily to the Govern
nent's income from small sources.
The Treasury Department has an
nounced definitely that taxes can be
reduced in practically: direct ratio to
the amount of money supplied the
United States through sale OF War
Savings Stamps.
working on the fundamental idea
Of the value of Thrift, we intend also
to convince every person in the dis
trict that the purchase Of War Saw
ings Stamps will make savings do a
better, bigger and moro valuable work
than any other use of the money" Mr..
Meyering said today. AT the same
time the money saved and invested in
stamps will be perfectly safe and will
yield an interest return of between
4 per cent. and per cent each year.
For more than four years the world
has been spending Now the world
must either start saving to make up
for the loss and waste or it must fall
back into stagnation and sink to a
lower standard of comfort and happi-
ness than it had before 1914. But it
is not necessary for the American
people to fall back If they ere thrifty
and save. We have the best oppor-
tun1ty to save Of any of the worlds
nations. We have the food, clothing
and money-all the good things Of
life. We must make the basis Of our
prosperity secure. Saving makes the
future prosperity of the individual
safe. At the same time it supplies mo-
ney to the Government with which
the whole national structure can be
so strengthened that we will not have
to lose or forego any of our national
prosperity"

MONEY FOR UNCLE SAM
Reserve Bank Head Appeals for
Thrift and Saving.
Bills Now Pouring In Requiring Gov
eminent to Pay Price Of Great War
People Get Money Back.

The Ninth Federal Reserve district
has probably received as great an in
now OF money during the past year as
In any two preceding years in its
history according to Theodore Void,
governor of the Minneapolis Federal
Reserve bank. Mr.. Void made tho
statement in calling attention to the
secretary Of the treasury's statement
that the government is in urgent need
of money, with war costs now in their
highest point. With it he coupled an
appeal for careful spending, thrift and
saving.
Instead Of spending twice as much
as In past years the people of this dis
trict have every reason, both of per-
sonal advantage and national necessity
for saving" said Mr.. Void. 1T is true
that prices are higher but most fami-
lies have good margin above necessi-
ties and from this there should be
substantial savings.
"The immediate way of loaning
money to the government, and saving it
at the same time is to buy War Saw
ings Stamps. When one realizes that
as much was yielded last year by sale
of these stamps as it cost before the
war to run the government for a year
it is seen that they are no trivial fl.
nancial item. War Savings Stamps
are very real and the man who buys
them in proportion to his ability is
helping the government as much as
any weather. man who buys in pro.
portion to his ability" .....-
