So I have now made a
sketch of a Unaform and written out the names of ten girls who
will be home when I am. I here write out the Purpose of our
organisation:
To defend the Country and put ourselves into good Physical
Condition.--Memo: Look up "physical" as it looks odd, as if
mispelled.
MOTTO: To be voted on later.
PASSWORD: Plattsburg.
DUES: Ten dollars each in advance to buy Tent, etcetera.
UNAFORM: Kakhi, with orange-colored necktie. In times of
danger the orange color to be changed to something which will
not atract the guns of the Enemy.
NAME: Girls' Aviation Corps. But to be known generally as
the G. A. C. as because of Spies and so on we must be as secret
as possable.
I have done everything thus in advance, because we will
have but a short time, and besides I know that if everything is
not settled Jane will want to run things, and probably insist on
a set of By-Laws, etcetera, which will take to much time.
I have also decided to be Captain, as having organised the
Camp and having a right to be.
10 P. M. I am now in my familiar Chamber, and Hannah says
they intended to get new furnature but feel they should not, as
War is here and everything very expencive.
