Go to the Navy, Young Man, Is the Advice of The Star Correspondent in Service (C. C. Lyon, correspondent of The Star, has enlisted In the Unit-| ed States navy and, from time to! time, will write of his experiences for this newspaper. He has gone thru the U. S. naval training sta tion at Norfolk, Va., and is now un- der assignment with the Atlantic | fleet. This is the fifth article.) BY Cc. C. LYON What has the United eed navy to offer in the way of a ca- reer for a young | man? | With a “state) of war" existing | between the Unit- ed States and i] Germany at pres- ent, patriotism 1s at a high piten, ind thousands of oe red-blooded fol lows will join the BP LYON wavy without a| ught of financial reward or ad- vancement. But we will not war. Hundreds of young men are at ready in the service because they | have figured out they'll be as well, | if not better off, financially, than they would in civil life. ‘apt. John H. Dayton, command. ant of the Norfolk naval training station, has handied many hun- dreds of naval recruits. He knows boys from A to Z. Conditions Are Better “Conditions are becoming con- stantly more advantageous for the| enlisted man,” Capt. Dayton sald.| “Any boy who comes to a naval training station has a chance un- der the present regulations to be-/ come eventually the highest com-/| manding officer in the navy!” The 100 early appointments to | Annapolis naval academy from the ranks of the enlisted men are now the big prizes spurring on the more ambitious boys.

All Japan is making obeisance to this fear- less young woman who has thrilled thousands of Orientals with her daring air fights. When she arrived here to begin her tour of Japanese cities, she was received with astonishment. ‘The thought of a mere girl guiding an aeroplane thru dips and loops in the alr was too much for the Oriental mind to grasp. But she made the flights and re- ceived a wonderful ovation after th appearance. Not only that, 8 accomplished the emancipation Japanese women. The time ustom that women in this antry must remain in the back- gronnd has been broken since Miss ' Stinson has arrived. The government has given per- mission for the establishment of a Japanese school for women «via tors and Miss Stinson will be the _ first instructor. During her visit here those of high and low degree have shower- ed her with compliments and pres- ents. Various gifts of diamonds and precious stones she has re- ce total many thousands of dol- Miss Stinson wears the costume of the Japanese woman when mak- ing fligh She has appeared in Tokyo, Noy- goa, Kobe, Osaka and other cities.

How many men at 48 are as well off? No business on earth requires as many different kinds of skilled men as the navy. The service needs machinists by the thou- sands, engineers, boilermakers, ex- pert gunners, carpenters, plumb- ers, electricians, blacksmiths, paint- ers, sailmakers and many other craftsmen. The “yeoman” branch offers jobs to bookkeepers, stenog- rephers, musicians, pharmacists, ete. In the commissary branch are jobs for bakers, cooks, ete, Every boy has a right to learn any of these trades in the navy, and the government goes to con- Siderable expense to teach him. At the Norfolk training station, some of the brightest boys joined classes in wireless telegraphy, taught by Instructor G. R. Barker. A paragraph from “The Recruit's Handy Book” seems to summarize the entire navy game. “Recruits should settle down to work and remember that good con-/ duct and continuous service WILL ALWAYS BRING PROMOTION, and that life in the navy has many bright sides. A man who Is eastly discouraged, or who will not work or ‘learn a trade,’ never will suc- ceed at anything.” eee (The Btar soon will publish a new series, giving Lyon's ex. periences as a seaman with the Atlantic fleet—EDITOR.)
