This is the day for weighing the babies and you will be interested as 1 was In the typical cases which come for advice and help. The first to come is Mrs, A, with pany E, in addition to routine drills \today, have been learning the intri- cate parts of their rifles and the way to care for and use them. Some of the new recruits had but little idea as to' how a gun was taken apart and cleaned, or even how itis worked and it i8 to have the men fully acquainted with these things that the order was given. Officers impress upon their men the fact that their rifle is their best friend and they must be on :friendly terms with it. Following de- | tall work on the mechanism of their guns the men of Company E will be given rifice practice;, on the indoor range at the armory. Ydeut. Griffin. Has Accident. Lieut. Ashley J. Griffin has been busily engaged today in visiting his various outposts and reporting at reg- imental headquarters in Hartford. As far as is known it is Lieutenant Grif- fin who has been the first of the local soldiers to have any experiences more exciting than guard duty. Yesterday as Lieutenant Griffin was driving the company touring car out of Meriden, after having visited the Sllver City on business, his machine sideswiped the “twin six” owned by E. J. Doolittle of Meriden. The army car came out ongtop and the front hub cap and mud guard on. the Packard were broken. ‘The big touring car was standing in front of the Palace block in Meriden when the New Britain officer struck it in attempting to make the turn. He was apparently unaware of having caused any damage and was proceed- ing along when apprehended by Pa- trolman Bonin, who was doing traffic duty. Supplies For Recrults Lacking. It is with interest that the National Guardsmen and their officers have learned the reason for the orders, is- sued a week ago, to stop recruiting their commands. In a statement is- sued - from Washington, Secretary Baker explained that the war depart- Jnent has been unatle to permit Na- tional Guard recruiting to proceed be- yond peace strength of commands be- cause of shortage of equipment which it could supply at once. The war de partment’s reserve stock was absorbed by the recent border mobilization. The guard detail at the armory to- day was as follows; Corporal Simons, Acting Corporal ~Anderson, Acting Mechanic Ventres, Private Ro Pri- vate O'Brien, Private Wilson, Private Ryan, Cook O. Ventres, Private Car- roll, Musician Gregory, Room Order- 1y Yapps. Is Second Youngest Officer. To Second Lieutenant Harris of E company belongs the distinction of being the second youngest com- missioned officer in the United States service at the time of his appoint- | ment. ' Lieutenant Harris, who comes from a family of military men, is 21 vears of age and when he applied for a commission he had not yet attained ! his majority. The voungest commis- | sioned officer is in a California regi- ment. Lieutenant Harris has .a younger brother who enters West Point Military academy this spring. 1 Men of Company E are out on guard duty in charge of Sergeants Smith and Veley and daily reports of their activities are made to Lieutenant Griffin, who in turn makes his- daily company report at Hartford. The same routine is being followed by the | members of Company I, under Cap- tain A. H. Griswold, now on guard duty. Aside from some hard colds the health of the men in both companies is regarded as good. After taps had been sounded at the armory last night and the men had turned in, with the exception of the guards, the telephone rang and an| urgent request was made for the commander. Rushing to the ’phone | Lieutenant Griffin said: "Probubly} we've got an order to pull out and its | up to us to give up our sleep and move.” He was wrong. It was a mother who wanted to know if the lieutenant couldn’t tell her just where her son was at that time. | Colonel Goodman Visits Company. Colonel Richard J. Goodman and several other regimental officers visited Company E yesterday after- noon and on his instructions the men were again drawn up to listen to the reading of the rules of war.

D — DRUG CO0., Remember this is the 'KODAK STORE. ICKINSON| you need is right her five months old boy. She un- dresses him and puts him into the arms of the nurse, who weighs him. Mrs. A's card shows that Alex weighed 10 pounds and 4 aunces last week and today, a week later, the scales tip at 10 pounds § ounces. A pleased smile appears on the mother's face and she gladly buys a new supply of milk- tickets. and -sugar- of milk to use in making the food ac- cording to the formulas so successful in adding to baby's weight. Mrs. B's baby comes next and he too, goes into the soft weighing basket. Alas! He has gained nothing but he has held his own and that is encouraging when you know what has been his struggle. The baby was un- derweight at birth and has always had a weak digestion. Several for- mulas were tried before one was suc- cessful. Now for several months there has been a slow but steady gain. Questions brought out the fact that baby this week has not had the usual amount of fresh air and the daily rub and massage after the bath. It is not an easy matter to do the work for a family of six and give a sick baby living on the third floor the necessary amount of fresh air and care besides washing the bottles and preparing the food. But mother love surmounts all obstacles and next week surely baby will gain, The kind, but firm words of the nurse give a new impetus and the mother departs with fresh hope. Next comes a well dressed( happy looking mother and baby and we wonder why they are there. As we listen we learn that three months ago this baby had a close call from pneu- mania and the mother greatly appre: clates the advice and many visits ntl APRIL 10, 1917. the nurse and attributes to these the fact that her baby is alive and fast growing well and strong. The weighing is interrupted by a little mother, leaving her charge in its carriage by the door, comes ‘to get milk for the baby and to report its pregress. We do not always appre- ciate the work of these little mothers nor do we give them as much aid and sympathy and instruction as we might, Perhaps some day we may have a class for these little mothers who so early have to assume heavy responsi- bilities. It is certainly not a tedious hour and one learns to have great respect for the brain and tact and training of a nurse who has so many practical ideas for the betterment of conditions of women and children. QUIGEEY TO OPEN BAZAR. Plans Completed for St. . Evangelist Fair. John the Everything is in readiness for the opening of the bazar for the benefit ot the parish of St. John the Evange- list tomorrow night in the parish hall on Newington streect, the committee of arrangements having completed their plans at a meeting last even- ing.

Home Guard at Avmory and City Guard at Walnut Hill Park. There will be two military drills in order this evening. The Home Guard will drill .at the state armory at 8 o'clock and all members who have not been examined or measured for uniforms will be cared for at this time. It is probable that the second company will be formed tonight. The City Guard also drills this eve- ning, the meeting place being Lex- ington street at Walnut Hill Park. It is expected that fully 150 members of the guard will be present as the men realize that to miss these ele- mentary drills means that they fall behind their fellow members in effi- ciency, BOTTLE MAKES POOR BANK.
