N. in charge of the naval recruiting station in City hall, has already been visited by sevpral young -men who sought in- formation regarding naval enlistments and he expects a brisk recruiting campaign here. Arrangements were made today for Chief Boatswain Thomas L, McKenna, U. 8. N, to meet with Mayor G. A. Quigley at 11 o’clock tomorrow morning when the civil and naval ‘authorities will co- operate and devise plans for a re- cruiting rally to be field fn this city. Mr. Brainard, who has been con- nected with the Hartford recruiting office, states that of the thirty en- listments secured - there, fully one- third -were New Britain men, yet they enter the service as enlisting from Hartford. Tentative. plans outlined by Mayor \Quigley and Mr. Brainard call for a patriotic rally to stimulate recruiting.

Mr. Bfainard calls attention to the new navy order which permits en- listments of boys under seventeen years of age, Although seventeen years is stated as the minimum. If a boy is big and strong and has the physical capabilities of a seventeen year ‘old youth he will be enlisted for the period of his minority even though he is but sixteen years. The recruiting officer likewise calls at- tention to the fact that the age limit has been changed. Previously thirty years was' the limit, but now a man may enlist up’ to thirty-five years of age.
