OBTAINS COMMISSION AS
 GENERALS AIDE

Superintendent Thomas A. Pierre, of Polls theatre, has received orders from Washington, D. G.. to report for duty at Fort Slocun, N. Y, March 20, on which day he will take over his duties in the control bureau, personal division, Ordnance Department, U. S. A., as French interpreter and per sonal aide to General F. A. Young of the ordnance department.
 Pierre will not be very long at Fort Slocum, according to further in- structions he has received, as he will be moved to Washington in a short while and from there to the front in France, where he expects to meet his mother who has raised and captains a division of Red Cross nurses.
 Before leaving for active service Pierre will be rendered a reception and banquet upon the stage of Polls theatre by the members of the theatre staff with whom he has been a prime favorite during the three years he has been connected with the popular playhouse.
 Beside being one of the younger set of theatrical managers in line for rapid promotion with the Po1i inter- ests, Pierre comes of a, theatrically inclined family and is a brother-in-law of c. B. Maddock, one of the owners of the Metro Picture Corporation and producers of the famous B. A. Rolfe vaudeville attractions.
 For some time past Pierre has re- sided at 62 Chapel street, and yester- day his home was deluged with let ters of both congratulation and re- gret at his early departure for the great adventure. From now on he expects to be the busiest handshake1 in Bridgeport and for that reason l he modestly keeps as much out o1 sight as possible, so that his hosts o1 | friends may not turn the lobby of the theatre into a reception room every performance

SYMPATHY FOR SENTRIES WHO
 SLEPT. ON POST

Four United States sentries on the trench line are condemned to death for sleeping at their posts, Their case will come before President Wilson, who will have in this matter to decide a tragic problem of war policy.
 Our boys cannot possibly be secure in their defence unless the Sentinels are absolutely alert. The sleeper at his post is a peril worse than German shells. For the dead of night when drowsiness steals on the watcher so irresistibly, is just the time the Boches may be coming over the top.
 It is desirable to resort to harsh measures only as a last resort. But everyone of our soldiers should realize the terrible results that may follow sleeping at the sentry's uost. A whole army might be overwhelmed that way. The soldiers should train them selves in ability to keep awake. They can do it if they try, and their lives depend on the ability of every man to do it.

The long pull in getting over the grip demands that all the organs Of the body be kept in their best working form, not only to drive out the poison left by the grip germ, but that the pa tient shall regain strength as soon as possible to avoid further attacks re- sulting from the poisons in the sys- tenn, paralyzing the greater part of the tissues of the body and the organs which they compose.
 Forced nutrition is a means toward good health after the grip-as it is a means of preventing the entrance of the grip germ to the system. Father Johns Medicine treats grip and builds tip the body because it is all pure nourishment and free from opium, morphine, chloroform or other poison ous drugs. Father Johns Medicine has had 60 years success for colds and throat troubles, coughs and sore threats, and as tonic and body builder.-Adv.

 ANTI-JEW RIOTS

Hundreds of men and women were seriously injured, and the rioters pillaged shops, stores and homes.
