Secretary Daniels planned to further

list of applicants. Only one OF eight
first applicants is accepted. They must
be men OF character, good physique
and mental ability. Such men are. how

tional necessities. He has a chance to
learn a trade. There is always room
for trained men, and the most promis-
ing OF unskilled recruits are chosen to
specialize on the work for which they
are best fitted. As in all other fields,
the best man has the right of way, but
each recruit, irrespective Of his rela-
tive ability. is given every facility to
improve and may achieve later in his
enlistment the rating he was at first
denied because Of his deficiencies.
Young men sufficiently skilled in any

machinery, carpentry, photography.

boilermakins. hospital and ~commissary

It IS at the seaman gunners' class
at the torpedo station, Newport, that
the distinctive naval trades, are taught.
Young men on second enlistment are
sent to this school by Uncle Sam for
an eight months course. The men are
selected for this training who have
served four years at sea and have
clearly shown by their ability and. their

1T has become the duty Of division
officers, carefully to examine all men

6ciencies Of each man, the amount Of
instruction he may have received at
the training station, the branches in
which further instruction Is most
needed, the fitness Of each man for
promotion, the branch for which he is
best suited and the personal prefer

ical ability will find the yeoman's
branch presenting opportunities for
success. Thus under Secretary Dan
iels' new system the man-Of-war's man
is prepared. He can find his opportu-
nifty and success earlier in or out Of the
navy.
Doesn't this all appeal very wildly
to the imagination? Think what it
means! A young American, perhaps
with only cramped education, with
out a trade, enlists. The navy imme-
diately starts to help him. to improve
him mentally, morally and physically.
For six months he goes to school again
