Recent investigations conducted by
officers of the naval recruiting station
In the Masonic Temple show that the
country boy has a far better average
IN the physical test required of re-
cruits for naval apprentices than the
Chicago lad, says the Chicago News.
The passing average for Chicago boys
between the ages of Is and II years,
the apprentice years, is one in five;
for the country boy, one in two. The
high average of the latter is attrib-
uted to his open-air freedom, whole
some food, reasonable hours and nor
NAL surroundings. The Chicago youth,
who has not the pure air and is adj
dicted to the excuses of city life, such
as smoking cigarettes and keeping
late hours. enters the physical exam
nations with heavy odds against him.
The examining surgeon usually finds
no is afflicted with a tobacco heart or
moor eyesight, either of which disqual-
ifes him for the navy.
Heavy Demand for Recruits.
Since last fall there has been a
heavy demand for apprentices and
Iandsmen in the navy. Chicago has
kept up with its average during the
last year and examined 10000 appli-
.cants. of which 975 were accepted.
,During the winter many boys from
%neighborlng cities and from adjacent
states have applied for apprentice
inapers. These applicants gave Com
mander Blocklinger and the examin-
ing surgeon W. F. Arnold, the oppor-
tunity to investigate the comparative
averages of the country and city boy.
No discrimination is made at the
nbysical tests. The first intimation OF
the higher average of the country lad
