British competition" says Chairman s.
N. Hurley Of the shipping board. IN
Great Britain heard a great deal
more about American competition"
Most OF the steamship operators said
u wouldn't be possible 10 induce Amer
lean boys to go TO sea in any consider
able numbers. Americans aren't a sea-
farlns people. they pointed out.
But in the year that the boards
training ships for recruits have been
In operation. $1,000 Americans have ap-
piled for training, and half OF them
wanted Jobs as fremen-the hardest
work aboard shlpl
No recruits are now accepted unless
they are American citizens.
The shipping board estimates that
65.GJ viii be needed for the ships COM
ing out in 1919 alone.
A sailors life nowadays is that OF a
gentleman. The old days OF brutal beat
ings with Delaying pin from a ours
lng mate, Of living in filthy forecastlcs
and OF eating "saft horse" and hard
tack, are things OF the past. Now the
men eat soft bread and fresh vegeta-
bles and meats, sleep IN comfortable
iron hunks, wear natty uniforms al
most like that OF the navy, and receive
treatment as good as that accorded by
any employer ashore.
And their pay compares favorably
with that Of jobs ashore. while Oppor-
tunities for advancement are plentiful.
An able seaman gets SO a month. board
and uniform, while other ratings. such
as carpenter, cook, etc, get from $50
TO 500 a month.
Recruits are given two months in
tensive training aboard scholarships on
the Atlantic or Pacific coasts. and are
paid 500 a month while getting their
''sea-legs."

shiftless parents. he had little instrur
tion and few associates, bat his dra.
matte instinct was developed by Fon-

visit of a theatrical company TO his

Bread Loaf Mountain section. lying
between Middlebury gap and the Lin

Just north OF these heights Is the
rugged mass whose SUBMITS have been
known for more than half a century as
Mounts Abraham and Lincoln. Quite
naturally the idea OF u new presiden-
