THE HONGKONG DAILY PRESS, SATURDAY, - SEPTEMBER 715, 1918.

To reach a green of age and enjoy good health can only be obtained by the care of the system. It is from the little irregularities of the system that the common ailments arise, and nature gives many indications of the approach of these complaints which, if treated at once, may be warded off. Growing old It ought not to mean growing weak and feebic.

es not mean weakness, or feebleness for those who.. eat with a food appetite und sound digestion. It is of the utmost imporefice that old people should retain the power to digest and milite food, which is the "sale urce of physical strength. When age brings fechs, it is generally because of the failure to assinate the nutrition contained in food. To those in declining years who find that Nature responds less readily to the, demands made upon her, and who need a mild yet searching remedy to keep their system in proper working order, there is nothing like Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills They are

It is hoped by the proposed amendment | FIRST MILLION OF AMERICAN to provide for the debentures held by momkers leaving the Colony who wish to dispose of their debentures being taken up by incoming members. Apart from SEVERAL CHANGES IN ARTICLES OF the fact that members are more likely to take up debentures if they are saleable on their leaving the Colony it is far more desirable that debeatures should be held by persons interested in the Club than by persons who have card to take any interest therein, and it can. I think, be safely left to the Committee to require an incoming member to take up a deben- ture or not and at such time as the con- mitee" think reasonable or having regard to the financial position of the incoming member and the number of debentures available.

MY DER PRESIDENT-More than one anillion American soldiers have sailed from the perts in this country to par- ticipate in the war in France, porting this fact to you I feel that you will be interested in a few data show: ing the progress of our overseas mili tary effort.

The first ship carrying military per- sonnel sailed on May 9th, 1917. having on board Base Hospital No. 4, and mem hers of the Reservy Nurses Force. Gen eral Pershing and his Staff sailed on May 20th, 1917.

The embarkations in the months fron May, 1917, to, and including, June, 1918, are as follows:---

the requirements are altogether different than for the stagnant war of the trenches with the occasional quick dash into enemy positions.

The proposed alteration No. 3 on the notice calling this meeting has become necessary by a Treasurer being appointed by the committee and paid for his ser vices. This Treasurer will not be an officer of the Club within the meaning of Articles No. 47 or 19 of the Articles of Association. Further, there is no method provided by the Articles for the election of the Officers of the Club, which are the Captain and Hon. Secretary, and inae much as these have always been appoint ed by a show of hands at the annual general meeting it is thought advisable to make provision in the Articles of Association, for the continuance of this practice.

The teave d'assaut 'or equipment for attacking troopers at present comprises: Usual campaign uniform, without knap- Back; tent, cloth worn crosswise; shoe covers rolled with tent cloth; trench tool worn on the belt, and sometimes two tools; an ordinary pouch hanging on a shoulder strap and containing food, and a second, reinforced pouch for grenades. and explosives; a two-liter canteen and a supplementary canteen of one-liter capa city for brandy; gas mask slung in front between cartridge cases, within conveni-S ent reach of the hands, and a second ask if possible; two to five bags to be filled with sand and used in organizing pesi. tions, attached to tent cloth; signal dares or rockets; drinking cup and spoon carried in the pouch for grenades; first aid nacket; individual notebook; iden tification tags, one carried at the peck and the other un bracelet: food for regular use and emergency rations; and 120 cartridges and five grenades- three of the hand type and two of the rifle type.
