h - ^ ^ ' 'i \ ; "iv MOTOR TRANSPORT. Lieut. Peters has just laid in a new stock of assorted pills—all colors. Some are good for colds some, are good for physics, some for everything else, and some for—Buy W. S. S. Lieut, Naab; “See Maxwell.” Lieut. Thomas claims to have taught Vernon Castle his first steps in danc ing. THE CADUCEUS As Sgt. Welser has been too busy taking care of the trade at the Q. M. C. Restaurant to devote any time to the important duties that are attached to all members of the A. A. of G. B., it is understood that the Committee on Investigation'has ordered the restaur ant closed in order to justify the Hon orable Secretary in entering the Ser geant’s name upon the books as a member .in good standing. If all of us were to roam to every destination that humor details us to the theory of “Join the army and see the world” would be fulfilled. How ever, so far dame rumor is all that has taken any of us away. We’re go ing though, Eh? McMullen. Sgt. Lehman is still looking for the siding to be filled ^with box cars for making the last shipment. The Amalgamated Association of Gold-Brickers, Quartermaster Chapter No.? (Our adding machine broke) held its first meeting one day last Tuesday. The main object was to obtain a few names for officers and so far we have three separate tickets, i e.: Pres. Lieuts. Longmore, Dixon and Crapo; Vice-Pres. Lieuts. Jordon, Landreth and Stonger; Sec’y. Corp. Blacker, Sgt Bernard and Sgt Hesse; Treas. Sgts. Cox, Maxey and Kreiner. For temporary Lodge officers we have elected as follows: MOST HIGH CHIEF GOLD-BRICKER Sgt. R. L. Griffin SENIOR ASSISTANT M. H. C. G. B. Sgt. Howard Donnett SECOND HP Sgt. Judge Lindsay CUSTODIAN OP DICE Stable Sgt. Smith CUSTODIAN OF CARDS Corp. P. T. Wellons CUSTODIAN OF JUICES Sgt. A. H. Day MOST EXPERT TYPIST Sgt. M. Shankman ■ HIS RIVAL Corp. Wm. E. Tidewell Several applications were submitted last meeting but some three or four were rejected. Reason—over-working. Ask Sgts, Muly and Stre'ed to please explain why they, were over at the tennis court near the K. of C. Building one day last Tuesday between 1 and 4:30 p. m. The Investigating Committe of the A. A. of G. B. will receive these men at their office any time on or before February 1st, during “actual” work ing hours for the purpose of receiving some legal excuses for such gross negligence of their ever-increasing im portant duties as members o(f the Crder “Morrison,” the reliable repairman, already has had wonderful progress in his new business since his ad was run in last week’s Caduceus. Scarcely was it made public when 90c contract came along, and chances on another for 15c. Sergeant says that 90c look ed like a thousand bucks when the “kind-hearted” man placed it coldly in his palm, but when the same 90c was detailed to purchase a dinner, it wasn’t sufficient to get the mus tard on a ham sandwich. Courage, Sergeant, possibly that 90c will grow. Private Morlet believes life would be too dull with Sergt. Goodin, hence he is seeking a chance to go to At lanta. We were informed that we were in the army for life. We should have been told: That we should have no labor bat talions. That we could wear “civies,” That we were going home. That We were quarantined, again. That there were no girls. That there was no money. What would we do if it wasn’t for the dogs, both in the company street and those we get in the mess hall. Sergeants Cummings and Kinzle find it hard to keep in sight of the ever watchful “top” Thul. Sergeant Andrews has at last de cided to make Charlotte his home. There’s a reason for not going back to his home in Swathmore, Pa. For information regarding qualities (and quantities) of shows with their accessories and spare parts at the Liberty Park theater—see Pvt. Dozier. He is now the star reporter as well as the publicity agent of the Military Police Gazette of Camp Greene. (This one is not published.) There was profusion of color on the Company street Sunday. Great! We are glad to have the ladies anytime. Variety is the very spice of camp life. Sergeants James and Morrison were lucky enough to secure a few days' furlough. Good idea! July and there will be no such inducement to go to the big city. The formation of other Camp Chap ters is invited and those desiring to do so will communicate with the secre tary when he is elected. - Notice:—Meetings are subject to dispersal jvithout notice. The Keystone Fire Department made a run last Friday morning and pulled off a few stunts for the amuse ment of the various members of the Camp. Ask Hi Ottoy of Fire Truck and Hose Company if he is as good at putting out fires as he is at building, them. One of the Hi-Kickers of the Socker Ball Team—Q. M. C.—has been tried and found guilty of illigitimately spending time at the home of a well- known resident of North Charlotte. Ask Corp. Harrold if she pronounced a life sentence upon him. Ask Sgts. Stamps and Rothschild why they have not applied for mem bership in the Amalgamated Associa tion of Gold-Brickers. 6^*/^ To U Pftl. —Xd ^ CtiLl IN 10 ion Tfisll.) “I RtPEW V !
