My Dear Mr. Rog Permit me briefly to spologize for my delay not previously writing you. The onl: excase which T ean offer is that | could nnt very well keep up corres- pondence gwith all of my Salem peo- 1 | you know I have done and therefore [ 7 believe you will pardon my tardiness in not writing you. However, as my dear mother states in her letter of re- cent date you are anxious to have me write vou of tie training and advan- tages of this branch of service I take the pieasure of compiving with vour i | ed to me and as they are. That each and, every voung man in t gloricus and honorable branch of the servics | are men whose whole souled desire is with ador and zeal than thev have done previously. Ty this T mean that many younz men have served their country before thev enlisted but have found themselves lacking. From our eat western farms which we all ow provide this great nation and our lies with its bountious supplies of wheat and beef, young men have join- ed. { Our eastern states are saerific- ing their vounz men who have done good and noble work In its many am- munition facteries and farms, still sorry 1o say there are snuch parts of the various states where the U.

New London has prac- tically every recruiting station with ®lthe exception of this branch. The average training a reeruit receives is about six te W weeks affer which he is turned out for duty. No other organization receives the training and drill which ‘he men in this hranch re- ceive. This is proven hy the queta- tion of General Pershing and other prominent men, as well as by the glo- {rious and victorious deeds which the marines are daily accomvlishing “oyer there."

Also hot and cold showers were al- ways available. the meals were always plentiful and good, the hours of arill and training were short in eompari- on to the Yours of leisure. Saturdav afternoons and Sundavs were hours of pleasure and left for devotional exer- cises and letter writing. The various medical treatments rceeived amount to about $22 und this inclndes only the three innoculations for the prevention of tvphoid fever and the vacination. For any other cases whieh may oceur such as toothache, or anything more serions medical attention is always provided, at any time of the day, this costs the reeruit only twentv cents per month. Now as to the clothing. The amount of clothing issued would cost the civilian about $200. This is given to the men without any deduc- tion from their pay. The chances for increasing their monthly pay are many. No braneh of service glves the Marine corps. The first is given te every reeruit. Under the rifie range each recruit is comneiled to shoot the rifle course and all have the equal chance of qualifying in the different degrees, The first is that of “marks- man.” This /zives a man an_additional increase of $2 per montn. The second is sharpshooter, with an increase of $2 per month. and the third is that of expert with a monthly increase of $5 and ail those who qualify recetve In addition to the increase in pay a medal in proportion to their respective qualifications. ~ This medal is highly honored and is composed of solid stl- ver, and should encourage any red bledded voune American to make good. The second . way of increasing the monthly salary is the non-commission- ed officers’ school. All men have the chance of qualifying for this eduea- tional school. Men who are turned out of this school are absolutely capa- Dble of handiing a company «nd know| their business perfectly, and receive f T | Auto mechonje, barbers, | chauffeurs, carpenters, and other trades, pay is according to their trades. Then! their are the various such camyp, the aviation school, and other: branches which afford the man enlists not only but the honor of the commissioned of- ficer. Is this worth while to try for?
