LONDON. August 27.--As result
of Germany's rigid compulsory mill
tary service laws, there is not now
an able-bodied man in the city of
Berlin, according to tourists arriving
from the German capital. The mob
ilization orders of the kaiser called
out every male in Berlin except those
too old, cripples and boys. These
now are doing police duty and guard
ing roads and bridgs At all the APP
proaches to the city and around the
bridges and public buildings boys
of IL and IA years of age may be
seen, wearing uniforms and standing
guard with fixed bayonets.
Since this war began, much has
been heard of Germany's military
regulations and much misinformation
has been disseminated. Military SER
vice in Germany is compulsory. Liza
bility begins at the age of II and
ends at the age of As. but actual SER
vice begins at 90
There are no exceptions to the
rule; no ways to dodge duty except
by leaving the country The rigorous
law applies to all. rich and poor,
aristocrat and laborer
The term of compulsory service in
the German army Is seven years in
the first line or active army; two
of these in the ranks and five in the
reserves, except in the cavalry and
horse artillery, where the periods
are three and four years. During
this reserve service, the soldier is
regarded as belonging to his corps
and joins 1t twice in the five (oI
