MARINES RECRUIT
 EXSERVICEMEN
"Over-Age" Men Accepted for Limited Service,
 Guard Duty in U. s. A.

Former marines, including World War Veterans regarded as "over- age and unfit for action" in the present war, now have an oppor- tunity to rally to the call of tnlel country and once more serve under the scarlet and gold banner of the United States Marine Corps, it Eas announced today by Staff Sergeant Maxwell P. Dickerson, Non Com missioned Officer in charge, Local Marine Corps Rec. Station, Room 2O9 Post Office Bldg. Waterbury, Conn.
 Under an Act of Congress, ap- proved January 20, a new division of the U. s. Marine Corps, known as the Limited Service Marine Corps Reserve, has been authorized.
 The members of this force will serve as guards at naval shore bases within the continental limits of the United States, relieving Marines for combat duty, who are now assigned to routine guard details.
 Enlistment in the Limited Ser- vice Marine Corps Reserve is open to all former Marines and other enlisted men who are over 30 years old and under 50. The physical re- quirements for this new class have been especially reduced from the Marine Corps Reserve requirements, but applicants must be men not fully qualified for combat duty. In addition, they may also be men who by reason of marriage or dependents are not qualified for general duty.
 The strength of this new class, known as Class ", Marine Corps Reserve, has been set at approxim- ately 5000 men, with Q stated quota to be filled from each Naval Dts- trict.
 Under the bill creating the new Reserve Class, provisions of the selective Training and Service Act of l94O do not apply to members of the Limited Service Marine Corps Reserve who are veterans Of the World War.
 In the new class, former Marines and other veterans of the first World War will be appointed to their highest former enlisted rank, not above sergeant, and not lower than private first class. Their pay will start from the date of enlist ment. Former Marines who did not serve in the war similarly will be appointed to the rank they held in the service.
 All members of the Limited SeT- vice Marine Corps Reserve are eEl- titled to allowance for quarters and subsistence, and also to transpoFt- ation for their dependents and household goods, in the same man. ner now received by the three high- est enlisted pay grades of the Mar ines Corps Reserve,
 Only high callhep and Fesponslple men in good standing in their coEIl- munities are to be accepted for e9. listment, The physical standards Of the Marine Corps Reserve have been modified for this. class, to permit the entry of men with seFvleable feet, legs and heart, Rules concern. ing vision, hearing color perception and teeth have been modified to the extent of permitting the enlistment of men who may be considered ID good health,

for children, but delight to all ages,
is Kenneth Grahame's Wind in the

life along the river bank and in the
wild wood, of "boastful, unstable
Toad. the hospitable Water Rat, TIE
shy, wise, childlike Badger, and the
Mole with his pleasant habit of
brave, boyish impulse" MY Friend
Flicka," by Mary O'Hara, tells of a
small boys development through his
devotion to his horse and will have
especial appeal for a horse-loving
family.
If the reading period is to be given
to books of more serious nature
an excellent biography for the pur-
pose is Madame Curie," written by
her daughter, Eve Curie. Beginning
with an account of Marie Curie's
childhood, it is an inspiring narra-
tive of the life a great scientist.
Among essay and poetry there is
of course, varied selection. "A
Time to Speak" by Archibald Mac
Leish, is valuable for it's current in
terest and for its provocative quality
Come Hither," Walter de la Mares
