The Reason for the cage Limit,

To the Editor Of the EVENING STAR:
In THE STAR OF last evening an interested
party, who subscribes himself "B.," INQUIRIES
why an 'age limit is applied to applicants tor
civil service examination. while chiefs and
other high grade clerks are selected without
reference to age. The following may serve as q
partial solution of the enigma:
Clerks are admitted on the same principle as
apprentices In any other trade or profession.
The examination which they are required to
pass does not require them to be qualified for
the business which they are to perform, but
simply to show themselves intelligent enough
to learn it, and the examination papers are pre-
pared with this In view. Hence q man OF more
than forty-tive years of age, although he may
be intelligent and well-intOrmed. is considered
to be less apt at learning shan a younger man,
The chiefs and higher grades OF clerks who
are placed in charge of the several branches of
business, require experience, judgment and q
familiarity with the laws. regulations and pre-
cedence governing the work they have in
charge, and are consequently selected from
those OF the employees who have mastered the
mtnutiae OF the office, and made suitable pro-
ficiency in the preceding degrees.
Hence, the principle that undeflios the civil
service laws Is, tor the lower grades to appoint
young men from the body of the people, and for
the higher grades, TO promote those who have
shown the greatest proficiency. M.MR
