BOYS OF NATION TO
MAN MERCHANTMEN
Youths, IS to %, Are Of
fered Sailor Training.

Washington.-The first step In plans
to give the United States an American
manned merchant marine has been
taken by the shipping board under
decision to place boys between the
ages of eighteen and twenty-three
years on commercial ships crews. The
boys will be able to work their way to
officers berths through an arrange
ment by the industrial division of the
shipping board working in conjunction
with Its sea service bureau.
Under the plan, detailed Instructions
of which have been sent to fleet cor
poration district directors on the At
lantic, Pacific and gulf coasts, two
deck boys will replace one ordinary
seaman on all the governments mer-
chant vessels. They will receive a
thorough training and be given ex-
aminations for higher ratings.
The boys, who must be American
born or naturalized, will be paid $25
month and receive the customary
subsistence. AS an ordinary seaman's
pay averages $47.50 a month, the total
crew pay roll will be increased only
$3.50 a month, the total cost for all
ships with the plan in full operation
being estimated at 100000 a year.
An applicant must be under twenty
three years of age, and while eighteen
is fixed as the minimum age require
ment, the physical and mental devel-
opment of boys at that age, the In
structions point out, will be consid-
cred as factor In making appoint
ments. Minors will require the con-
sent of their parents or guardians to
ship as deck boys.
The sea service bureau has advised
masters and officers of the govern
ment's merchant vessels that on them
will be imposed the duty of training
the deck boys to become ordinary and
able seamen and later, as they develop
ability and experience, to receive
higher ratings.
The youths will be required to serve
six months before being rated as or
binary seamen and year before being
eligible for able seamen ratings
through tests prepared by the United
States steamboat inspection service.

SAVE ACID VICTIM

Last Wednesday Mrs. John Ritz
man accidentally swallowed some
carbolic acid.
Mr.. Ritzman happened to be at
the telephone when it happened, and
in less than twenty minutes a doctor
was on the spot, and antidotes were
applied. She was very sick for
several days, her mouth and throat
being burned raw. But her false
teeth plates partly protected her
mouth, and by great good luck she
did not swallow any of the acid.
She is on the road to recovery

before she is well.--Spring Valley
