MERCHANT MARINE APPRENTICES
Whichever way in life the Merchant
Marine apprentice aims to take, the
U. S. Shipping Board is prepared to
help him in his next step upward.
The initial course of. training, OBJ
tanned on the commerce cruisers, is
approximately two months-lon
enough for two voyages to the West
Indies, for example-after which the
boys are shipped in regular merchant
crews, for more extended voyaging, as
regular seamen, or as firemen or
stewards.
Those who intend to make seagoing
their business are encouraged to look
toward an officers berth. High
school graduates are eligible for a
third mates license after one year
at sea. Firemeq may become oilers
| by promotion, and after two years in
that position may become engineers.

This country is witnessing pic
turesque development of recruiting
methods by which the new Merchant

ing manned with American crews.

anxious to go to sea are being sent at
frequent intervals by the U. S. Ship
ping Board from inland cities to sea-
board places where training ships are
maintained for their reception.
The making UP Of these parties of
American boys who want to try the
adventurous life OF a seaman suggests
by contrast the old days Of the .pNss
