Is it any wonder the girls have a soft spot in their hearts for these “soldiers of the sea”? That Marine didn’t just happen to be the husky lad he is. -He is merely a walking example of what the Marine Corps can do for the ordinarily healthy man. May- be when be came into the service he was a little stoop shouldered, didn’t have much “pep.” Maybe he was working at a job he didn’t care for, didn’t have anybody to “pal around with.” ‘The Marine Corps is) a body of: men, carefully trai use both’ hands, both feet and their heads. They are the sort of men who can take Vera Cruz or form eae of honor for the Prince of Wales, and do both jobs shipshape. They are blood brothers to the French For- elgn Legion, the Pennsylvania State Constabulary, the Canadian Mounted Police and the Texas Rangers. They are princes of good fellows, and they're wildcats when they’re riled. UNCLE SAM MAKES REAL MEN AND ‘GOOD FELLOWs The U. S.

In fact, when he comes out of the Marine Corps there are all sorts of big-paying civilian jobs that are waiting for a man who can do so many different kinds of things and do them well.
