become a yeowoman?
What is the remuneration for the
wearing of such title?
Where does one go when once one
has pinned it On-the title, not the re-
muneration?
Many young women are inquiring
about doing yeoman service for the
government. Commander John B. Pat
ton, U. S. n, of the Third district of
the United States naval reserve and on
the staff of Rear Admiral Usher, COM
mandant of the New York navy yard.
gave the following information:
1.-The service of yeoman. (Which may
be undertaken by a man or woman
constitutes clerical work." said Com
mander Patton. "This includes ste.
biography, tipping and any of the sub
heads that come under the general
head of clerical work.
There are four classes-chief yeo.
man. who receives $66 a month and
board on sea or shore; first class, $44
and board; second class. $3.50 and
board. and third class, 1913.
1.-THE salaries vary according to the
class of work demanded. A chief yeo-
man must naturally be an expert. At
present women as yeomen are not be-
ing enrolled because of the press of
other matters. Immediately it is de-
cided to take applications notices will
be published through the newspapers"
Examinations Required.
What examinations would have to
be passed in order to qualify an appli
cant for yeomanry duty?" he was asked.

put any applicant through who wished
to do clerical work." he replied. He

''1n what other lines can women en-
roll in the naval reserve?'
''As wireless operators and telephone
switchboard operators. In any Of these
class1s-yeomen, wireless or telephone
operators-women would probably not
SO to sea. but would be detailed for
shore duty. Certainly they would not
go to sea at first
What is tie pay of wireless teleg-
raphcr?"
"A chief electrician gets $66 and
board. first class operator $50 and
board, second class $44 and third class
$33."
1.-THE observation has been made"
Commander Patton was told, that it
would be bit hard on woman should
she give up regular position to learn
wireless for the sake of her country
and then find herself uncalled for and
out of work"

Can Collect Retainer.

There is however. this feature of
the problem" he answered, that after
she has taken her preparatory work
she may take her three months con-
firmation and, if she chooses to remain
in the reserve, may for four years
thereafter collect her retainer Of two
months full pay annually without per-
forming any service during the remain
der of her enrolment if there is no war
In the event she is chief operator she
would receive $132 year, you see.''
How is this possible?" He was
urged to be more specific.
Because" he said, 'the same rule
that applies to men applies to women.
This covers yeomen, wireless operators
or any class in the service of the Unit
ed States naval reserve. Men are en-
rolled for four years, but in time of
peace they may resign whenever they
desire. To be confirmed in their rank
or rating they must have three months
| training. They may have continuous
active duty on full pay if they desire it
and their services are needed.
"After three months training and
confirmation officers and men receive
retainer pay every year of two months
full pay, without performing any serv-
ice during the remainder of that enroll
ment. The training may be taken in
| periods of not less than three weeks al
a time. Before being confirmed they
receive an annual retainer pay of $12
They may enroll in any naval district
they choose"
'"rhis brings up the question of dis
tricts. Would woman desiring to give
yeoman service be apt to be detailed
in the district In which she had en-
| rolledT'
"She would be apt to be-" he replied
1t may be matter of interest to note
that there are fourteen districts In the
naval reserve.
