THE EVENING WORLD, FLEET INSPIRES BOYS 10 JOIN THE U. §. NAVY Hundreds Daily Apply at Re- cruiting Station in Twenty- Third Street. SCORES DISAPPOINTED. Varied Attractions Offered Young Men to Enlist in the Service. ‘The dally average of twenty applica- tions for enlistment in the United States Navy at the recruiting station at No. 168 West Twenty-third street hae jumped to almost two hundred Since the recent naval] pageant graced the Hudson River. Inspired by the last few days have been tugging at their anchor chains along the river front, like impatient dogs of war, young ing oMce begging for a chance to b¢ come @ part of Uncle Sam's naval fam- the post, with his subordina Clerk M. F. Tracey, who lef Yeoman, and Chief Y lor and Clark, have been struggling with & wild, flery, patriotic crowd of boys and young men eager to join the navy. ‘The applicants are all ages and of every description. Most of them, though, are native born Americans and Graduates of American public schools. The romance of the navy and that indefinable something that yearns for adventure which lurks in every healthy boy's breast was flamed into being by the splendid showing of the ships and the men during the last week. RECRUITING STATION A BUSY PLACE THESE DAYS. All day yesterday and to-day iong Unes of them crowded the commodious @fMfices of the recruiting station. The men on duty, with as much dexterity and rapidity as their vast experience allowed, examined all the enthusiastic @pplicants and heard their stories with the quiet, kindly courtesy that marks the trained sailor ‘or soldier of Uncle | Many of the applicants are sent gently |way, all their hopes shattered, because of some physical or mental deficiency, which, although seemingly trivial, was enough to make Uncle Sam reject them as unfit for active service. Others, a vary few, were not even allowed to have thelr application considered. They showed plainly that they were not af the type desired in the navy. Chief Gunner's Mate Reardon, an old sea dog who has smelled gun powder when it was not being burned for the purpose of salutation, is the man in the reception room of the recruiting station who casts his eagle eye over the applicant and decides inetantly whether he is just the right| sort or not to have aboard Reardon is the official mind read of the recruiting station, If he turns @ young man away there is no further argument on the matter, The gun- “y mate can read character as 3 he can judge the distance of a fet on the firing line. The applicants are usually young men between twenty and twenty-three, The navy accepts men petween the years of seventeen and thirty-five Mst without the written consent of their parents or guardians. men are not encouraged, unless they trade, The inducements offered the young men of the nation that the navy is a skilled school of high standards has gone to great expense and detail in presenting to them the many attractions offered by this branch of the service.

The opportunity for improvement while in the navy is endless, Bach ship has a complete library, with @ Ubrarian in charge, containing scten- tific and technical books of all kinda. Beside this, there ts an electrical, a Machinist's, musictan’s ‘and artificer's school besides hospital and clerical training. The newly enlisted men re- ceive their pay in full while under- going instruction, and as soon as they are qualified it is immediately in- creased. All of these inducements were explained carefully to the ap- plicants, When they expressed them- selves as being perfectly satisfied with the regulations demanded by the navy they were put under physical ex- aminations. The Government is very strict about the physical calibre of the sailor. In the long lne of applicants in the examining room to-day one after an- other was rejected because of some slight defect. quired weight or helght. Others had defective vision and not a few were color blind. The disappointment of | hese men was real and poignant and “The navy is Just the thing f healthy boy,” said Commander Da “We are very strict about the ty men we take in the service, but for the right man we offer every sort of opportunity for advancement.
