FREE LIFE OF THE SEA.

MEN LOTE TO LEAVE THE MERCANTILE 'MARINE.

Sailors generally declare that they only go to sea under compulsion, but even when they settle down in an inland town or on a farth they often become restless after a time and get back to sea. The spell of the sea is expected to hold a good number of those who have taken to the deep waters by way of doing their bit in war-time. It is stated that there is every probability. that many of the men who left their jobs at the outbreak of war to join the Mercantile Marine will remain at sea after normal conditions have

been restored. They live the free life, and the steady man finds that be can save with far less effort than when he had to spend long days at his desk.

"My experience at present," Mr. Thomas Scott, secretary of the Mer cantile Marite Service Association, says, "is that if a man has a job to come back to he usually, claims it, but I can quite understand that those
