Canoe Club LU1I IVI II I r IU UIIULII INFLUENCE OF TAILORS' UNION THOUGHT RESPONSIBLE FOR ORDER Coblewg, Jan. 9. - Overseas marks of service and Sam Browne belts are soon to be cast into the discard if the new military order from Washington which forbids the embarking of sold- iers from foreign ports wearing them is strictly adhered to. Many army men are now wondering if the Inter- national Tailors' union has had any- thing to do with issuing of the order. According to officers' consulted, the discarding of Sam Browne belts will force the purchase of new uniforms either on the other side or immedi- ately after landing in America and this is the reason for the insinuation that the Tailors' union was in a measure responsible for the order. Insignia Regarded as Honor Doughboys landing in this country feel it their privilege to wear the insignia of their divisions which stamps them as veterans of Euro- pean battle fields. To discard these together with their overseas caps will place them in the same class with those unfortunates who failed to get overseas and while they do not look down on the latter, they feel that to take away the outward marks of their service will be a rank injustice and show of ingratitude for the service which they have rendered their coun- try. EachDivision Has1Mark A small red "I" is proudly worn by each member of the First Division while the Second shows no less pride in the star and Indian head device which they wear on the arm. Gaudy black and white stripes are the out- ward sign to one versed in military matters that their wearer is a mem- ber of the famous Third Division. The Rainbow Division is hardly mistakable with all the colors blazing on their arms, while our own Thirty-second, composed of Michigan men, wears an arow device to show that it has been at the point of every attack. Doubt Observance of Order Whether the order will be strictly observed is being greatly questioned in military circles, as is its wis- dom, for it will certainly be the means of sending"the doughboys home with an unmistakable grouch. Masques will give its first play of the year at the Women's league party to be held at 3:30 o'clock this after- noon. "The Kleptomaniac" is the title of the comedy which will give Masque stars a chance to display their talents.
