First , enlistments and re-enlist -ments
in the marine corps : have
shown a marked Increase In the-Portland
district dnrlna; the' last week, as
Is shown by the records at the local
marine recruiting station, Panama
building-. Thomas F. Chllcote, agred
18, resldlnr at 1 6 4 East Burnsido
street, who enlisted for. the marine
- aviation section, says be ttarured oat
that he can : earn and save more
money . in the . marines and at the
same time learn a skilled trade un-1
der fetter conditions than in civil
. life.
' Frank J. iaFernIer of this city en
listed and was transferred to Mare
Island, CaL tor training, and later will
he transferred to the Navy Mechanical
school. Great Lakes, I1L, where he will
take a course In mechanical -work- Le
Fernler is an athlete well known In the
Northwest. He recently won the North
west prep school championship for the
4 it-yard run.
B. B. Berryman of Gresham was dis
charged from the marine corps reserve
to enlist in- the regular marine corps.
Berrymaa has been Jn the service, a lit
tle more than two years and says he
has several hundred dollars saved and
deposited with the government, draw
lng 4 per cent interest. He has been
assigned to duty at' the local recruiting
station. ,;
William B. Schuman, resldlnr at 431
East Taylor street, and Matthew J.
Toungr, 814 Barter street both veteran
"Devil Dogs," have reenllsted for the
' fourth time. Both claim there is more
money on the "inside."' with better
chances for advancement than on the
"outside.-
VOCATIONAL TKlXSKf O ;
"In addition to those mentioned, says.
Sergeant X X Howell, "several other
men were accepted and transferred to
Mare Island for training, mostly to
i learn a trade. Heretofore the average
man has -viewed a career In our mili
tary establishments, whether permanent
or temporary, as a tail-ender among
their 'job possibilities. but lately all
our applicants are enlisting- with the
firm Intention of taking advantage of
. the many opportunities offered by the
. marine corps at this time.
. "Out of a hundred and one possible
- reasons for a man enlisting in the
, marine corps, I Win olte 10 main points.
each one of them offering a sound rea
son for enlisting : Good pay and money
in. the bank; 4 per cent Interest paid
by - government on deposits ; chance to
' learn while you earn ; training in
- skilled trades ; travel aboard ships and
- in foreign countries ; physical training
: and athletics ; congenial employment.
: surroundings and .associates ; character
building; excellent chance for promotion
. with Increased pay; daily and week-end
;. Wves. ,
"It. is not necessary to review, all of
the above 10 points, but take the first,
tor instance, 'Good pay, and money in
- the bank.' .:'
OPPOETUK1TT TO SATK , r
"A private in the marine corps, with
.'base pay of S3 9 per month, receives
m60 per year. , 7 His minimum expendi
tures are as fojlows for . the year ,:
Ijaundry, $52; tobacco, amusements,
etc.. $80 ; Christmas presents, $12 ; in
surance on : $3000 (policy optional).
$15.35; total. $159.8$. This leaves for
savings or additional personal expendi
tures $200.84 in the course of a year.
"In civil life the minimum living cost
ef a young man will run somewhat as
follows for the year: Rent (contribu
tion to family or rent of rooms). $158 :
food (contribution to family food bllls)r
$260? laundry, $52; clothing (very low
estimate), $76 ; carfare, (to and from

ganisations, lodges, etc.. dues $10;
.doctor, medicine, $13; total. $733.
OX THE SOCIAI, SIJB
"To be in a position to save the same
amount in th, course of the year as
the private of marines, the lad In civil
life must have an annual income of at
: least $933. or approximately - $80 per
month, assuming that his employment
is regular. - X .
"In the marine corps everything a
man requires Is furnished by the gov
: ernment, and If the recruit is saving he
can have a much larger balance at
the end of his enlistment. .
" The marine corps is run - like any
other business, with hours for work and
hours for recreation. The marine off
duty ha the use of well equipped gym
nasiums, libraries, reading rooms,
amusement rooms, billiard and pool
tables, bowling alleys baseball and
- football outfits are provided for their
. amusement and entertainment ; he calls
en. his girl if he has one. and usually,
he has more than onein fact, does
just about as he likes.
"Being In uniform, his self-respect as
well as the rules of the service demand
that he conduct himself as a military
man and a gentleman. : He has no dif
ficulty in obtaining permission to leave
the barracks or post "at proper times,
and when not on duty. In fact he
usually has a better time than a civilian,"
