Gobs on the Hudson and Girls
Ashore in New York.

SltuhG IN their apartment windows
On warm summer nights trying TO
get cool, many girls along Riverside
drive amuse themselves by "blinking''
messages by tiashlight to the sailors
on the navy craft anchored in the
hudson, the New York Sun states.
"Oh, l wish l had something to
read. l wish had something to read"
was the message which some quarter
master was blinking away aimlessy
the other night when:
What do you lille-romance. love,
mystery, sea adventure or detective
storles! came the barely discernible
tWlhkt from the eleventh floor win
dow of big apartment house in the

Romance flashed back the COB.
"Real stuff"
And then the first CHAPTER of Won
derful romance was hlinked off and the
second chapter was being enjoyed
When the mist and fog descended on
the river
Sorry, but can't read any longer
tonight" blinled the COB, who al
ready had met the young woman of
the blinker romance, which is taking
serious turn.
You wait and see," predicts one
young lady who is intercepting the
messages each night. "Those messages
are endearing and, oh, well, what girl
wouldn't enjoy being courted so ro-
mantically?"

FAMOUS ENGLISH RACE HORSE
Eclipse, Bred by the Duke Of cumben
land, Was the Sensation Of
His Generation.

Ihat celebrated race horse, Eclipse,
which died Feb. %, 1889, at the ripe
age OF 70 years, received his name on
account of his being born during an
eclipse of the sun, and it became curl
ously significant and appropriate when
IN mature life he was found to pass
all contemporary horses as regarding
speed.
ECLIPSE was bred by the Duke Of
Cumberland, brother of George III.

Dennis O'Kelly, who on his death be-
queathed the animal. along with all
MS brood mares and other horses, to
his brother Philip. For many years
Eclipse lived in retirement from the
turf, but was in other ways source
Of considerable revenue to his owner
On account of the many visitors who
came to see the renowned hero Of the
race track who was passing his last
days at Clay Hill near EPSON.
In those days it was not the custom
to insure the lives of animals. and
the fact that Eclipse was insured for
an enormous sum only made his popu-
iarity the greater. When It became
necessary to remove him he was %
worn out that carriage had to IS
especially constructed to carry him.

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

| The peoples Of earth are weary Of
war. They want reduction IN aIma-
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
lean 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
lrd more has been advocating that
the principles of the Prince OF Peace,
50 -1ASictlS eaSNCplCu DIS
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., o.
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 We're 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 gathering.
It's general superintendent, DR.. James
S. Martin, is recognized as a 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 ap
pointed by the churches and other or
