No. 10-What Inspired Our Army
Insignia

Most OF us are now familiar with the
insignia worn by our army officers
and an interesting tale has been WOW
EN- about the selection and origin of
the various marks The story begins
with two-barred fence, near a group
of trees. One of these is a sturdy
oak and another silver poplar, the
tree which grows TO greatest heights
in our forests. Above this tree flies
an American Eagle. 1t is night and
the stars look down upon the scene.
The first step, or first rank of a
commissioned officer is climbing the
first bar of the fence, and is de.
noted by the one bar on first
lieutenant's shoulder, Another step
up and the officer has his foot on
the second bar OF the fence--the two
bars surmounted being indicated by
the two-bar mark of the captain. The
next stage OF the climb upward is
the branches OF the trees, and the
rank OF major, denoted by the gold
leaf on the shoulder, has been reached.
In order to so higher the candidate
for higher rank must now surmount
the tail silver poplar, and when lie
has done 50 he is entitled To wear
the silver leaf OF the Lieutenant. col
onel. The eagle soaring over the tree
tops indicates the rank OF colonel
the silver eagle being worn by OF.
ficers of that rank. The stars are
the highest Of all things to be noted
In the scene, and so the stars have
been selected 10 designate the differ
ent ranks of generals; One star for

A Winters Tale

The night dark and dreary
And the wind moaned low eerie
While the seet was driven wild against
the pane.
The shutters ratified madly
And the lamplght fickered sadly.
AS if passed by forms come back
earth again.
Twas a night in old December
And the fires last dying ernber
Cast cheeress glow OF fear inpeing gloom
Crawled rat upon 4 rafer,
Like shade from the hereafter
Coming back where once it held a uyst
with DOOM
Twas said the place was haunted
BY spectre who, undaunted
BY storm seet, returned there every year
Once more to view the portal
Where all that once mortal
OF him was found. mid circumstances queer
While the storm from heilsh regions
Drove the Wndgod's restless legons
Through the whispering pine with
signing groan
On the roof a shingle, ripping,
Set a minute torrent dripping
To the f'oorboards in nladdening
monotone.
But We cared not for the weather
Or the ghoul from out the heather,
BE he banshee. demon. loupgarou elf
For our spirits stood intrepid
And gushed forth joyful and rapid
From quart of bootleg standing on the shelf
