CHANCE TO ENLIST.
Army Recruiting Station Has Been Re-
opened in Burlington.

A recruiting station for the United
| States army has been recently reopened
| in Burlington in the Howard National
! bank building Enlistments for all
| branches of the regular army are again
open. In addition to the older branches
of the service, such as cavalry, infantry,
artillery and medical department, there
are now branches which were created
during the war which will hereafter be
part OF the regular forces. Among
these are air service, motor transport
corps, and many Others in which man
with almost any trade can find place.
II is also the intention of the war de-
partment to train bright young men in
technical trades connected with these.
The wartime pay Of $50 per month is
continued and with the many qualities
ton and promotion pays makes the
army an attractive proposition from the
money standpoint alone. In addition
to the excellent pay is the physical
training and the chance to see various
parts of this and the foreign countries
I in which our forces are on duty.
Men may enlist for immediate service
in Europe with the army of occupation,
thereby getting chance to see France,
Germany and the other European eoun-
tries in which the army of occupation is
stationed. Twenty per cent increase in
pay is given these men while serving on
foreign soil
The enlistments are for the periods of
one and three years. Men who have had
previous service in the army or navy
may enlist for the period of one year
for service in this country. All enlist
ments for the army Of occupation are
for three years. Men without previous
service enlist for the period of three
years with the privilege of applying for
their discharge at the end of one year.
This will be given If the soldier is quail
flied in his drills and wishes to return to
civil life.
Age limits for the regular army are
from Is TO 40 with the exception of the
staff corps, such as medical department
and signal corps, for which service men
physically qualified will be accepted up
TO the aye of 50 years Men between the
ages Of Is and 81 must furnish draft or
registration card. certified copy of birth
certificate or school or baptismal eerti-
ficate or sworn statement of parent or
guardian before they can be accepted for
enlistment
All men entitled to the 800 bonus and
have not yet received it may apply in
person or by mail to their nearest re-
cruiting office, which will furnish them
with the necessary blanks and instruc-
tions for procuring the bonus. All men
who have been honorably discharged
from the army since April 9, 1917, are
entitled to this bonus. The recruiting
stations viii also give advice and infor-
nation as far as possible on all matters
pertaining TO the army
