 Any American citizen between IT and 30 can enlist after passing ex- animation. Under eighteen the con sent of guardian is necessary. Af- ter enlistment, man between F and 9 is enrolled as apprentice sea man and sent for three weeks to the recruit barracks. Then he goes to one of the four training stations, where he undergoes drill, duty and study periods. He is given oppor- tunity to work in technical trades, such as signalling, wireless, music, hospital work, etc. When the course is completed an examination is giv- en and the applicant is admitted if found qualified
 Special training schools are held for yOemen, artificers, etc. These departments are recommended for men who have special training or ex- perience. Exceptionally high pay is to be had in the submarine service. Knowledge of machine shop tools is necessary. Information may be ob- tained from the base at New Lon- don.
 The marines are the soldiers of the sea. They go with the warships, do guard duty on board, and act as landing parties ashore. They are the first line of defense of naval bases and stations beyond the limits of the United States. Applicants for the service may take physical tests at recruiting stations. but they are not enlisted there. Information about en- listing is issued by officers in charge of recruiting, Marine headquarters, Washington.
 Another important branch of the service at sea is the coast guard.

 From Cape Horn to the Arctic Sea there is no support for Germany, unless it may be from some group of Mexcans and there is little reason notwh- standing reports to the contrary believe that any considerable part of the Mexican people has been won by German diplomacy.
