WHEAT WILL BE MOVED
IN TINE, SAYS HOOVER
Shipments for Pershing Cause Tempo
rary DeIay-Farmers Need
Not Lower Prices.

In a telegram received by the u. S.
Food Administration for Wisconsin
Hoover explains the delay in wheat
transportation and urges Wisconsin
farmers not to sell their wheat at a
low price through panic at this tempo
rary situation
Enlarged demands by General
Pershing for material resulting from
the progress on the western front have
necessitated temporary diversion OF
grain ships to his service wires
Hoover. This curtails the wheat
movement from the seaboard and has
filed our seaboard and terminal ele-
vators, thus checking the movement
Reports have reached the Food
Administration that some farmers
have become panicky over this situa-
ton and are selling wheat at less
than government prices.
There is no occasion for this II the
holders will have little patience. In
time the wheat will all be moved and
the full price secured by every
grower The government is willing to
buy all wheat at the guaranteed price
as fast as it can be moved"

PLAZA

We had to literally fight our way ed as if everybody in Bridgeport want ed to see Charlie Chaplin in his new picture, "A Dogs Life," on the open ing night. Like most of the others we were so interested in seeing Chap lin's funny feet and his funny mon grel that we didn't care what the rest of the bill was and right now We want to say that even if Chaplin wasn't on the program at all that theatre should be as crowded as it was for the rest of the bill was just a little better than superf1ne.
 "A Dogs Life'' is in three reels and it's a scream from the start to the finish. Chaplin has eliminated all vulgarity and gone in for clean com edy. His stunts with that 'mut" of his in the tough Bowery dance hall would make an Egyptian mummy laugh and when he gets tangled up in wad of chewing gum while dancing with his girl friend, the house fairly rocked with laughter.
 The Melody Garden, beautifully staged instrumental offering with seven gifted, pretty and handsomely gowned young women headed the vaudeville program and they were a hit from the start.
 Martin Lum came out to sing and got in an argument with the orchestra conductor that resulted in the latter coming upon the stage to settle it in real pugilistic fashion, but it came out alright, they made friends, sang some 'corking'' songs, worked up some comedy and, to use theatrical par lance, brought the house down with applause.
 Scott and Kane had a neat and happy little skit that won them in- stant favor, and Will Morris put over a comedy bicycle riding act that would entitle him to feature spot on any bill
 Several very humorous films and ar interesting travalogue completed g bill that is worth much more in oul estimation than you're being charged by the Plaza management.

NEW ALTITUDE RECORDS MADE
 AT TEXAS CAMP

Dallas, Tex, May 7-New achieve ments in endurance and altitude tests at the Texas aviation camps have been recorded frequently this spring. Some of the latest are reported from Ellington field at Houston, where on a single day new camp records for both height and endurance were set. An army f1ier whose name in withheld by order of the executive authorities at the post, climbed to 20,800 feet, only a little less than four miles in the air. On the same day, a civilian demonstrator for an eastern motor company remained in the air, with passenger for nine hours and 53 min utes and descended only when his last drop of gasoline had been consumed.
 The type of the machine used in the test for altitude, was withheld by the Ellington Field authorities. The re- suit, they said was gratifying and of great value in demonstrating the utility of certain innovations and inn provements that have been under con- sideration for some time. The climb ing quality and power and speed de- veloped exceeded expectations.
 In the endurance trial some of the officers had been of the opinion that the motor to be tested would stall before the gasoline in the tank was completely exhausted, while the man ufacturer's demonstrator contended, of course, that the motor would con sume every drop of available fuel. With a passenger he arose at S:25 a. m. and stayed aloft until he vol planed to a landing at SIS p. m. without a hitch to interrupt his flight. The engine continued running without the slightest indication of stalling un- til the last drop of fuel in the tank was drained into the cylinders.

TRACE DISEASE
 TO CONSTIPATION

One of the points on which diff ferent schools of medicine practi- cally agree is, that about 95 per cent of all human disease is direct ly traceable to intestinal putrefac- tion of stomach waste due to inac- ttvity of the bowels, or constipa- tion. The eliminative process is an essential factor in digestion and on its proper functioning depends the welfare of the entire system.
 Constipation is condition that should never be neglected. As soon as the bowels evidence the slight est disposition to slow up, a mild laxative should be taken. The combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin, known as Dr. CaldwelPs Syrup Pepsin and sold in drug. stores for fifty cents a bot tie, is}highly recommended as corrective, acting gently, in an easy, natural way, without gripping or other pain or discomfort. A trial bottle of this excellent family remedy can be obtained, free of charge, by writing, to Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 456 Washington St., Mon ticello, Illinois.

WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE WORLD OF THEATRES AND AMUSEMENT
LYRIC

To merely use the word funny in giving a decision on the farce comedy, Take a Chance" which opened for the week at the new Lyric theatre last night, would hardly express the opinions of the hundreds of specta- tors who witnessed the initial per- formance of what promises to be one of the most popular productions of it's kind. Neither would it do, justice either to the play or the Po1i Players wh'o interpreted the various roles which make up one of the most hu- morous and Imaginable combinations that has visited Bridgeport in some time.
 Take a Chance' is positive scream and the audience last night was kept in an uproar of laughter throughout the four short, but snappy acts which comprise the production Right from the very beginning the visibility of the audience is aroused and as the story unfolds this gains in strength until in the last act the auditors are convusled with laughter | Take Chance" is really one of the funniest, laughter producing comedies
 
 Bridgeport and if it ever appears on Broadway as it undoubtdly will, it's instantaneous success is assured. There is a laugh in every line, all though they are devoid of the ridic- ulous. They are replete with real, unadulterate6 humor which attends the many complicated situations which follow one another in rapid succession right up to the grand c1i- max which is the funniest of all. Dudley Ayers, the popular leading man, has never been seen in a role to which he is better suited, and he car ries off the part in his usual breezy style, earning laugh after laugh as he takes the chances which form the foundation of the story. Miss Warda Howard also has an excellent oppor- tunity of displaying her. versatility of talent and as uua1 proves an easy fa- vorite with the audience.

RUGS ARE GETTING SCARCE

Another advance in the price of all grades of floor covering is eminent and the assortment will soon be poor. Anyone contemplating buying mer- chandise of this kind will do well to act quickly. At the present time the prices are very moderate at Moth nagle's busy home furnishing store, and the assortment is splendid. The same conditions. while not quite so acute, apply on homefurnishing of every description. Our govern ment's business at the present time is war and all energy, necessary ma teria1s and essentials to making those materials such as coal, etc, must be diverted into war channels. Nothing else counts or can count now. For this reason the present is far better to make homefurnishing purchases than the future. Take the tip and buy now.

POLI'S

Charlie Chaplin crowded Polls the atre last night and he will continue to crowd the theatre at every per formance during the engagement of the three reel feature comedy photo play here this week There is good reason for the crowds, for Chaplin has made his ultimate comedy pie ture. It is genuinely Imaginable. Not that type which caters to the hit and miss variety, but because Chaplin has sought the humane in life. He is aided by a dog and a downcast girl, also the lack of the price of a meal in fomenting his Iudicrous but lucra- tive antics.
 Another feature which has it's ap- peal to all who love good dancing is the act performed by Mana and her partner. This production, the height sonality combined.

EMPIRE

Charming and dainty, Enid Bennett appears in her newest Thomas H. lnce-Paramount picture, '~The Biggest Show on Farth,' to the delight of the immense audience at the Empire the atre today. The unusual character of the picture, its dramatic action and superb photography, made deep inn precision upon the audience and tend larity among her admirers in this city. . ,
 Old men in the audience were re- minded of their youthful days by the scenes depicting life in the. .circus, the presence of wild animals in cages and the thrilling scenes wherein Miss Ben nett, as Roxie Kemp, entered cage of lions and charmed them by the force of her eyes. Aside from these incidents, the story has a. well sus- tained plot, which is carried out to dramatic and logical conclusion. Roxie Kemp is thS daughter of Nat Kemp, part owner of a circus, and on her seventeenth birthday he informs her that her mother was no actress, but a lady born and that at her death bed he had promised her to give Roxie a good education.
 He induces her to quite the circus and she becomes an inmate of a boarding school, where she, one day, saves Marjorie Trent from the fangs of ferocious dog, and, thereby wins her sincerest friendship. Roxie sub sequently meets Owen Trent, brother of Marjorie, and they instantaneously fall in love.
 The circus is coming to town and Roxie steals away and arrives there just as mob, angered because of the refusal of the woman lion tanner to enter the cage, is about to wreck the circus. Roxie dons her old trainer's s dress and enters the cage, cows the lions, with the result that the crowd is appeased and the circus saved. She is recognized by Mrs. Trent, the mother of Owen, an aristocratic w'o- man, whose contempt for circus folk is supreme She repudiates Roxie scornfully, until Colonel Trent, her husband. confesses to her that he is part owner, himself, of the circus and that Roxie is virtually his ward. Mrs
 Trent thereupon takes Roxie to her heart and she finds happiness in Owens love.

OVER THE TOP.

'tOver the Top" the great American photodramatic masterpiece which will be shown at an early date in this city undSr the auspices of the Home Guard, carries with it the true spirit of America, the fighting spirit of the most powerful nation of the entire world
 This is the time when too much pa triotism or patriotic propaganda can not be given to the people and the people being patriotic at heart like to be stirred to the depths of their hearts and carried to the heights of enthu- siasm and in view of this fact the Home Guard have under large ex- pense signed the timely masterpiece, "Over the Top for an early showing in this city.
 The engagement will prove an event in this city inasmuch as every effort will be made to have every man, wo- man and child see the picture which will prove itself true example of the art of the shadow stage.

But that It seems is not the true Sammy the Ameri

10 the edetor is red-blooded young devil He smokes
cisores and swears good deal and kicks on the sung
sullion' they hand to him. and he's got the idea
that German is pgheaded galoot who let's the Kaiser
and his crowd wipe their feet on him and likes il
The real Sammy is afraid Of nothing in this world
and he's hard guy when he goes up against the
Hoche. He doesn't go into battle With any lofty ideas
Of laying down his life his country Rather he goes
in with the fixed idea Of killing just many Boches as
he can without getting his hide punctured
