Barnes Preparing
Y Headquarters Staff

Plans for a new headquarters staff
are being made by Cassius B. Barnes,
newly appointed commander Of the
Connecticut Naval Militia at New Ha-
ven. It is believed that Bridgeport,
because Of the efficiency that has been
shown by the Third Division in drills
and deep sea manoeuvers, will have
ample representation. The names OF
Albert J.. Merritt, ordnance officer and
John Ross (attached to the Hartford
Engineering division) both Of Bridge
port, are prominently mentioned for
place in the headquarters council.
Under the regime Of Commander
Barnes, it is expected that rapid
strides in the growth and efficiency OF
the Connecticut Naval Militia will be
made with an attractiveness added
to the service required which will APP
peal to the recruits.
The advent Of the Amphitrite In
Bridgeport, which has already proved
a marked attraction to militiamen as
we'll as civilians Is but one Of many
concessions that will be accorded
Bridgeport and other cities under the
new command, according to well post
ed officers of the organization.

GrimaIdi Saved Monaco and Was Made
Ruler of the Tiny Land.
Did you ever hear Of the most dis
tinguished Of the Grimald family, not
the Genoese general who remained at
home and fought for his own country,
nor yet tho artist who did heroic stunts
on canvas, nor the sixteenth century
Grimaldi who died by the hand Of an
assassin in the palace at Monaco, but
the tenth century ancestor Of that
prince who saved Monaco from the
Moors? His was an achievement
worthy of a true soldier Of fortune.
The tiny principally, perched on it's
seagirt cliff had been settled by the
Greeks even before Athens became the
greatest city of the civilized world. 1t
was one of the cultural outposts of
Rome, and in the fifth century it was
an important center of Christianity.
Then the Moors crossed the Mediter-
ranean. extended their sway over Spain
and seized the ancient Heculis Monoeci
Portus and gave over its churches and
monasteries to the inf1dels. For 200
years they defied the soldiers Of Eu-
rope, and then Grimaldi came. There
had been many wars in Genoa. and
here was a chance for a Genoese cap
tain.
When his military genius had driven
the Moors into the sea, he was re-
warded by being made absolute mon

Bremen, one of the "free" cities of

New Lettering to
Denote Destinations

Bridgeport today saw a revival of
the letter. method of marking des-

tiers against a black background in
stead of the red letter heretofore UNI
successfully tried out, are used. In
addition the written destination will
appear also in smaller lettering. The
innovation is intended to give wait
ing passengers and traffic officers
early knowledge of the destination Of
an approaching car. Thel etters may
be seen at a distance Of about three
city blocks.
Some time will be required for the
public to fan1iliarize themselves with
the markings. The Connecticut Co.
conductors will furnish printed cards
upon request, showing the designa-
ton Of each route.
