Had Equally Wrong Ideas.

A village barytone condemned one
Of the most famous singers of the
day because he was afraid to hold
high note and left it almost as soon
as he took it. The ant OF the great
singer I'm using his voice to interpret
the composition did not appeal to the
local barytone who made use of COM
positions to display his voice. He
was judging in the same way as the
editor of che newspaper who looked
for en- interesting story in a work
on singing and who was unaware that
those who wanted to improve their
singing were interested In being in
structed.-New York Sun.

Diamond Wedding Anniversary.

The number Of years allotted to the
diamond anniversary varies in differ
ent countries. In the Scandinavian
countries 60 years is fixed as the dia-
mond wedding, while In Italy, 10 years
constitute diamond wedding, and the
sovereign Of that country Is wont to
testify his interest in the happiness Of
any couple in his kingdom who have
dwelt together In holy wedlock for 20
years by some token Of royal favor, a
well-known writer states that various
authorities declare that 70 years, be-
Ing a sacred period, the three score
and ten years allotted by the psalmist
as the age of man on earth, should be
regarded as the period of true dia-
mOnd wedding.

To keep friends you muse show an
interest in what interests your friend
No one wants to be associated with
those who are selfish. And it's so easy
to become more selfish when you once
begin to think and act only for your
self. So the wise man learns to think
III terms of his friends. That's anOth-
err reason why friendships have such
an influence in life. And your friend
will be concerned for your welfare and
together you will work out what is
for the best interest of all concerned.
And you will find life becoming more
and more broad as you learn to think
from your friends viewpoint. -Ex-

LIMITATION OF ARMAMENT?
Sentiment for Latter to be Crystal
lized by Citizens

Tho peoples of earth are weary OF
war. They want reduction in arma!
ment to the point Of well organized.
and orderly conducted national and
international police forces. The hour.
has struck for obtaining this much
to be desired end. With the opening,
Of the International Conference on
the limitation of armament in the,
capitol of our country the eleventh
Of November next, peace-loving Amer
ican citizens have the greatest oppor-
tunity Of their lives to secure the
answer to their prayers and obtain
the realization of their hopes. If they
will but crystalline and focalize at
Washington the disarmament senti-
ment of the country to support our
statesmen while they lead in the dis
cussion for this great object, there
can scarcely be any failure Of re-
suits.
To this end the National Reform
Association which for fifty years
and more has been advocating that
the principles of the Prince of Peace,
so generally accepted as applicable
in the dealings of individuals one
with the other, are likewise applicable
in the dealings of nations each with
the other-has called a Convocation
to be held in Washington. D. c., Oc
tober 30-November 2, 1921, to be adj
dressed by representative men and
women active in the civil and politi
cal life Of our beloved land.
Having organized and successfully
conducted three great Worlds Chris
tian Citizenship Conferences, at the
last of which in 1919 forty-one differ
ent countries were represented by
the presence and participation Of cit
liens or subjects of each, and at
which action was taken looking
toward world disarmament, the Ma
tional Reform Association seems to
be the logical organization to take
the lead in calling such a gathering.
its general superintendent, DR.. James
S. Martin, is recognized as genius
in building programs and as a safe
and sane leader.
This Convocation, while not eccle-
siastical, has the endorsement of
many church courts and while not
political in any wise, its purpose has
the endorsement of leading states
men. Delegates to it are being APP
pointed by the churches and other or
CARNATIONS throughout the country
and many distinguished men and
women will be present, not as repre-
sentatives of any special organiza-
lions, but as lovers Of peace and as
thus giving expression to their ap-
prevail of the action of the President
IN calling a conference Of the powers
in behalf of the limitation of arma-
ment.

POLITICAL POSITIONS.

HERE are many civic positions
which will certainly be open to
women in a short time, not only
here and there, but everywhere. In
many of our smaller cities and towns
the wOmen's clubs have done a great
civic work already, proving that wom-
en- are well fitted to do such work.
There Is no reason at all why woman
should not be commissioner Of street
cleaning, and there seem to be many
reasons pointing to the fact that she
would be an excellent one. AS factory
inspectors, as recorders, and in posi-
lions having to do with the household
side of the community, women can do
excellent work.
Women who go into politics should
go with sense Of service to the body
polite. If they do that and can point
TO results that prove them square,
honest and devoted, many women are
going to find themselves elected to city
Jobs.
If you have bent toward civic
work, study the problems In your own
community. The past generation saw
the marvellous development of women
rs to the business world The coming
one Is sure to see an equally amazing
entry into the world of political work.
SO far women who have been ap-
pointed to various city or state posi-
lions have not had to play politics.
They have been given such positions
because they were fitted for them and
had the necessary training. That is
the right spirit. Get your training and
do your studying, know your problems
and the type Of people with whom you
must work. If you are fit for the job,
you have as good chance as your
brother to get it--or you will have be.
fore old time Is much older.
