This Might Help Unless one knows the meaning of tha various colors, cords and other insignias of rank, the devices on sleeves and collar might be a bit con fusing. So, in order that you don't uintentionally address a sergeant as colonel or a major as corporal, the badges of offices that will be most commonly seen during these days of the mobilization at Mt. Gretna are given below. The same insignias ap ply in the regular service. All the troops will be garbed in olive drab and the sleeve insignias of noncommissioned officers are worked in in buff; the officers' collar insignias jart- in gun metal, while the shoulder I devices are in silver. The Officers' linsignia The hat cords may be a guide as to what branches of service the Wearer belongs. The infantry »wore a blue cord about their campaign hats; the cavalry orange yellow; the artillery red: the engineers dark red, and the hospital or medical corps, green. Officers all wear a twisted black and gold cord, with knot tassels, about their hats. Incidentally, the officers wear only their automatics and no sabers. A single band of tirown braid is worn on the sleeve of all the offi cers up to captain. Collar insignias are as follows: Crossed rifles, infantry; crossed sabers, cavalry; crossed cannon, artillery; crossed cannon with shell in center, coast artillery; adjutant general's de partment, flag shield: general staff, s'lar and coat-of-arms; aid-de-camp, shield surmounted by eagle; quarter master general's department, wheel, crossed key and saber, surmounted by spread eagle. Officers' shoulder Insignias are: No shoulder bar, single arm band and officers' hat cord, second lieuten ant: single silver bar, first lieutenant; two silver bars, captain; gold oak leaf, major; silver oak leaf, lieutenant col onel; silver eagle, colonel; single silver star, brigadier general; two sil ver stars, major general. Now for the sleeve markings of the noncommissioned officers: Company, troop or battery only—Chevrons, two stripes, corporal; three stripes, ser geant; three stripes with diamond in crutch, first or 'top'! sergeant; single bar across the chevrons, quartermas ter. In the cavalry there are additional ! insignias as follows: A leather-cutter, ; means "saddler"; horseshoe, "black i smith," wheel, "wagoner," sergeant's ; chevrons with curved bar connecting ! crutch and trumpet in center, chief | trumpeter; sergeant's chevrons with | trumpet in crutch, principal musician; j trumpet only, bugler. ! With the exception of the offices that pertain to the handling of the : horses the infantry special insignias | ate practically the same. The color ! sergeant's device for Instance is alike \in each branch. This is a sergeant's i chevrons with a star In the crutch. The battalion and regimental non ' commissioned staff Insignias are a little more puzzling to the layman. Tlir quartermaster sergeant's chevrons j for battalion and regiment are pre cisely the same as in the company organization except that there are two | bars connecting the crutches of the I chevrons for the battalion officer and ' three for the regimental. The qfluad | ron or battalion sergeant-major wears a sergeant's chevrons with the crutches spanned by inverted double stripes; the regimental sergeant major's In signia is the same except that three curved stripes connect the crutches. A regimental commissary sergeant | wears a sergeant's chevrons, with a ! crescent in the crutch and three I straight bars below. IN MEXICO 70 YEARS AGO [Continued From Editorial Pago] all the sterling poems produced by that contest "The Towers of Monterey" easily bears off the palm. And what will greatly add to Its interest, in the mind of all Telegraph readers. Is the fact that its author was that polished scholar and courtly gentleman, Charles Fenno Hoffman, who was, for many years, an inmate of Ihe State Lunatic Asylum in the suburbs of Harrieburg. and who died there. It is a poem that was once known to every lover of literature in our land, and is well worthy of a reproduction here as a spirited presentation of how Monterey was fought and won. THE TOWERS OF MONTEREY By Charles Fciuio Hoffman We were not many—we who stood Before the iron sleet that day— Yet many a gallant spirit would Give half his years, if he but could Hav ■ been with us at Monterey. Now here, now there, the shot it hailed In deadly drifts of fiery spray, Yet not a single soldier quailed, When wounded comrades 'round them walled, Their dying shout at Monterey. And on. still on our column kept Through walls of flame its wither ing way; Where fell the dead, the living stept, Still charging on the guns that swept The slippery streets of Monterey. The foe himself recoiled aghast When, striking where the strongest lay. We swooped his flanking batteries past And braving full his murderous blast. Stormed home the towers of Monterey. Our banners on those turrets wave; And there our evening bugles play, Where orange-boughs above their grave, / Keep green the memory of the brave, Who fought and fell at Monterey. We were not many—we who pressed Beside the brave who fell that day: Yet who of us has not confessed He'd rather share their warrior rest, Than not have been at Monterey? Btiena Vista, the Most Remarkable Battle of American History About the time that General Taylor captured Monterey, one of the annual or semiannual revolutions in Mexico deposed the arrogant Paredes from his brief leaae of power. The re nowned Santa Anna who had been a storm center of Mexican plots and intrigue for twenty years, was recalled fiom exile and Riven dictatorial power. He promised the Mexican people that he would soon rid their land of the "accursed Yankees" (the term "Gringoes" for the Americans had not then been invented in Mexico. Its origin will be told a little later.) Santa Anna promptly took* the tleld. By forced loans on the clergy, the monasteries, the bankers, and in fact anyone who was suspected of having means, he raised large sums of money. Soon he had an army of more than 20,000 men and ndvanced rapidly to the fortified position of San Luis Potosi with the avowed intention of annihilating Taylor and bis little army. Taylor was not averse to accepting >the gauge of battle proffered him and JUNE 26, 1916. They're YOUR Eyes— !

Sud-1 dc-nly he was deprived of nearly all his regular troops as well as a con siderable part of the volunteer regi ments. General Winfield Scott, an illustrious hero of the War of 1812, had been appointed to sumeme com mand in Mexico, and hail formed the design of landing on the Gulf coast of that country and marching direct | to its capital. In pursuance of the plan he had called upon Taylor to 1 send htm the main party of the army with which Monterey had been won. Not only did Taylor lose the greater part of' his army, but also those vet eran subordinate commanders Worth, Wool, Quitman, Twiggs and Pillow. He was obliged to fall back to Monterey. It was not until February, 1847, that Taylor had received a sufficient num ber of men—volunteer regiments to justify a movement upon the hosts of Santa Anna. Advancing into the mountainous region of Mexico, the American general took up a strong position in the pass of Angostina near Buena Vista, a most appropriate Jiame for a wild and romantic sylvan Scene, for It Is Indeed the place of a "beauti ful view. hardships of Mexicans Marching to Buena Vista To Buena Vista then Santa Anna came, much against his will, to tight ! General Taylor's little American army, i The wily Mexican chieftain had de ; signed to remain in the fortifications : of San Luis Potosi for the Americans to attack him on the march to the capital. But his government and peo ple wore clamorous for an immediate offensive against the hated Americans; and none knew better than Santa Anna, by his own bitter experience in the past, how short was the duration in power of any Mexican ruler when one of the masses betame bitter ak&inst him. He accordingly began a march with .in army of more than 20,000 men which for suffering and fidelity to theil leader has no parallel in Mexican : annals. It almost seems as if the Mexican soldiers, after all they suffer ed on the way to Buena Vista were | deserving of a better fate than the | awful field of death that was awaiting I them. Almost all of Santa Annu's troops were destitute of shoes and many had but one article of clothing. Dur ing two days they subsisted on one biscuit and a slice of meat for each man. Part of the march lay over an uttjer wilderness and the remainder over crags and mountains, barren, solitary and mapped in the horizons of winter. So great was the scarcity of water that it was accurately meas ured out to the men, and the time of drinking, as well as the quantity, de fined in general orders. No man in Mexico, eSccept Santa Anna, could have held that army together for a single day. On February 22, (day of auspicious onien for American soldiers) Taylor's little band of 4,500 saw Santa Anna's army, more than 20,000 strong, sweep ing upon dense masses on every side lint 1 crowded upon all the adjacent heights.

Santa Anna possibly thought that 1 he was due for a pl-etty warm recep tion from Taylor's men, even If he dio outnumber the Americans more than four to one, for, ere the conflict began with a fine affectation of ! humanitarianism which he had never j shown in his barbarities against the j Texans struggling for independence, I he sent General Taylor the following ; communication: I "You are surrounded by 20,000 men land cannot avoid suffering a rout and being cut to pieces With your troops; but as you deserve consideration and pnrtlcular .esteem, I wish to save you from a catastrophe, and, for that I purpose, give you this notice, in order that you may surrender at discretion; under assurance that you will be treat ed with the consideration'belonging to the Mexican character; to which end, - you will be given one hour to make up your mind, to commence from the moment when my flag of truce arrives | in your camp." General Taylor did not need one minute to make up his mind. His sol diers affectionately called him "Rough j and Ready," and he lived right up to the title in the curt response he ln : stantly returned to Santa Anna. How Buena Vista became one of the j mosi glorious fields of victory I which the Stars and Stripes ever I waved must be deferred to the next number of this serial.
