SAN FRANCISCO. Calif., May 14.—
Harsh punishment for “incorrigibles”
is a thing of the past in the navy.
According to Captain E. H. Durell,
commandant at Goat Island the naval
training station in San Francisco bay,
punishment will not help any condi
tion ’tohlch kindness cannot cure.
Hundreds of fine upstanding young
Americans are turned out here every
few weeks to man the ships of the
United States navy.
Captain Durell takes keen interest
in the boys rated as “incorrigibles,”
and turns many of them out to be
first class fighting men.
The question of morale is always
uppermost. After inspection on Sat
urdays, the men are lined up in a
great square, with the band standing
a little to one side. A song master
takes his place in the squars and
leads the men in popular melodies,
with the band playing a subdued ac
companiment. This tends to keep
the boys in good spirits at all times.
Hard work is always accompanied
by music. If the men are heaving
coal or engaged in other trying la
bor, the band is close by, playing con
stantly. “It makes them work twice
as hard and twice as effectively,’
Captain Durell said.
In addtion the life of the island is
so adjusted that every just complaint
is traced to its source and corrected
Justice is meted out by the small
group of officers on the island, and
acute cases of wrong doing are lev
and far between.
; During tne uetention process tm
| man is selected for the school ii
which he is best fitted. If he ha:
had experience as a seaman he i
given a chance in the yeoman':
school. In addition there are wire
less, cooks, and bakers and diverst
other schools, and a hospital corp
that has grown to be one of the bis
gest and most important adjuncts 01
the island. This corps has its owi
quarters on the top of the island
its tents being placed under straigh
rows of trees that afford protectioi
both in winter and summer. There i
3 station hospital, and three big ist
[ la'ed wards for the treatment of co
j tagicus and infectious diseases. Tt
hospital plant includes a fully equi
ped laboratory, drug and store ’com
cperating rooms, dental c ftices an
rooms for the treatment of eye, ea
nose and throat diseases.
I The operating rooms open up to th
| corps quarters on the floor abov<
J permitting the corps members t
j look down directly on the tables an
get an intimate view of all open
tions.
In addition a semi-circular trenc
conaining a first aid dugout has bee
constructed for the hospital corp
near its special parade grounds. Thi
trench is an exact reproducton of th
trenches in Flanders, and in it th
men are given the identical first ai
work that they expect to be give
abroad.
Goat Island is one of the five majo
training stations in the United States
, Only its geographical limitations prt
vent it from being one of the bigges
of the five. Every available inch o
land on the island is being utilizei
for the purposes of the big school
Because of these limitations, over
flow schools have boen established a
Mare Island, Calif., and San Diego
Calif., under separate jurisdictions.
The drills on the island consist o
calisthenics, the usual navy manue
of arms, and instruction in the use o
machine guns, and the small artiller;
used by landing parties. The isiant
new accomodates approximately si:
times the numbor of men it was firs
intended to serve, but Captain Durel
has found room for all of them, am
is sending them efficiently trained at
the end of a four months course.
At the end of the training period
the men are placed on board ships or
arc sent to the tour corners of the
nation on land duty.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 16—Vigor
ous campaign to obtain enlistment in
the army of young men who have be
come twenty-one years old since June
6 has been instituted by Lieutenant
Colonel John H. Gardner, officer in
charge of recruiting for this district.
In pointing out the advantages ac
cruing to men who enlist and are
thus able to pick the branch of the
military service which they prefer,
Colonel Gardner said many men who
registered last June are now seeking
to enlist without avail
“Yung men who enlist can better
themselves in a military sense by
selecting for themselves in advance
the branch which they wish,” Colonel
Gardner said. “The cavalry, infan
try, coast and field artillery and avia
tion sections are open now, but the
routine through which every aviation
candidate must undergo would Jeo
pardize his chance of getting into
I tbwt service between now and June
