A young man who had failed by only
three points in an examination for ad-
mission to the marine corps appealed to
his representative in congress for assist
ance, and together they went to see the
secretary of the navy in the hope of Sc
curing what is known as a "rerating" OF
his papers.
"How many chances do you wantT'
asked Secretary Long. This is your
third time And before the young man
had chance to answer the secretary
continued: "How do you expect to get
along in the world when you smoke SC
many cigarettes? Your clothes are satu'
rated with their odor. Pull off your
gloves and let me see your fingers. There
see how yellow they are!" pointing to the
sides of the first and second fingers.
Before the young man found his tongue
to offer an explanation the secretary ask
ed him If he drank.
