PUTNAM

Chief Water-Tender II. Clifford and Chief Gunner's Mate J. Mcdowell, members of a navy recruiting party, made one of their regular visitations to putnam on Monday. In discussing the attractions that the navy now or fers for enlisted men, Mr. Clifford said; 'If the average young man fully real ized what the navy is offering him to-
 day if he would enlist in the service, we would have so many applicants that we would have to stand at the
 doors of the recruiting stations and drive them away by force" In explaining this statement MT. 1 Clifford showed how young man after a pension of more than S1O0 month, 16 years of service can be retired on and such retirement can be earned as early as S4 years of age. In the mean time the young man has been taught some useful trade, such as machinist, electricion, etc., etc.. and can go on earning money while the government pays him of the side enough to live on in ordinary times.
 Navy enlistments have not. been nu- | merous recently in this section of
 Windham county, and the recruiting 1 officers are making a special effort to get clean living, healthy young men. 1 MT. Clifford said that many of the young men now going into the service
 were in the army overseas during the war.
