WANT MUSICIANS TO
 ENLIST IN THE NAVY

WASHINGTON, D. C., March 27.- Naval recruiting stations are being instructed to enlist all the men pos< sible who have musical training as 2 result of pronounced shortage of musicians with which to compose the hands for the new war ships that hay l, recently or will soon be commissioned according to navy department officials.
 Young men who have slight knowledge of music can enlist under the classification of "landsmen for musicians" at $17.5O a month and found. Skilled musicians can enter the navy at s33 a month and main tenance. After two years service the { frst-class musicians receive $39.50 a month, and bandmasters get $57.20. ! The newly recruited novices are schooled in band music for six months before being assigned to ships. i The life of a new musician is var jed. They start the day by surround ing the fiag-pole and playing "The Star Spangled Banner" as the colors are raised. At 8 o'clock they start playing and continue playing for one hour. At noon they play for another tour, and in the evening they give a concert from 7:3O to 8:45 o'clock. At sunset they surround the flagstaff and again play "The Star Spangled Banner" as the colors are lowered.
 1 The musicians enliven the life of the entire ship. In case of war they play stirring patriotic airs when an attack is made upon the enemy. and in time of peace they tighten the lab CTS of the tackles by playing the pop ular music of the day. In the even 1 ing after work is done the band starts its concert and the men group about the main decks, dance clogs, and arrange impromptu entertain
 ments. When the crew is coaling the Eandsmen play and the music cheers them and has tendency to facilitate and expedite the work.
