need men to fill the ranks to full

report that there seems to be an
Impression that men cannot enlist
after they are registered for the Sc
lective draft army. The govern
ment is anxious that this idea
should be corrected, and men be-
tween the ages Of Is and 40 en-
couraged to enlist in the army. the
navy. the marine corps. the nation
al guard or the naval militia, and
not wait for the draft. Men enlist
ing in any of these several
branches Of the armed service will
have an opportunity Of later being
detailed for service with the new
army as non-commissioned officers,
or Of obtaining commissions in this
new army. New regiments Of the
regular army are now being organ
lied and men enlisting in these or
ganizations will have excellent op-
portunities Of being appointed non
commissioned officers in these
regiments within . very short time.
