Riding Horse Type
Of Today Is Held
AbOUe Old Breeds

While the number of riding
horses bred in recent years has
decreased enormously. Army Off
GERS say the kind and type of this
day is far superior in quality and
breeding than in.the past.
Not only is there a demand in
the Army for good riding horses,
say officers of the QuartermaS-
ter Corps, but horseback riding,
polo and hunting are greatly on
the increase throughout the coun-
try and a good, well bred riding
horse is bringing a better price
than at any time in the history of
the United States.
Declaring that breeders appre-
ciate this, the officers point to the
numerous applications being made
to the quartermaster generals
office for remount sires. more than
1900 being received. To encour-
age the breeding of light horses
the Quartermaster Corps is dis
tributing stations of thorough
bred, Arab and Morgan breeds
The thoroughbred, or running
horse, the officers say, is by far
the most popular sire for the pro-
duction Of riding horses.
In the Army's quest for appro-
pirate horses the entire country
has been covered by Army pur-
chasing boards, and while the
purchasing program is now up to
schedule, Maj. c. l.. Scott of the
remount service, said that "the
fact that horses of proper type
were SO hard to locate shows the
neglect of breeding in the past
and the scarcity of good sires of
riding type at the present"
During the World War, and for
dozen years previous, breeding
of light horses, particularly rid
ing horses, decreased greatly, in
many States the drop being from
10 to 80 per cent. The breeder
has now discovered that it only
pays to raise a high-class, well
bred colt and that scrubs and
mongrels are of no use and have
no Salable value"

CHURCH UNITY IDEA
DECLARED GROWING
Episcopal Bishop Asserts
DenominationaIism Has No
Place in Religion.
BY the Associated Press.


MILWAUKEE, Wis, May DE
norninationalism has no place in the
church of Christ, asserted the Right
Rev. c. p. Anderson. Episcopal Bishop
of Chicago, at ceremonies for the con
secration Of the Very Rev. B. f. P.
WINS as Bishop Coadjutor of the Dio-
cese of Milwaukee. Bishop Anderson
spoke on united church, with his
subject The Kingdom of God and the
Church"
There is marked trend at the pres
ward a revival of the idea of one
church in the kingdom of God, he de-
clared.
The idea of many churches as dis
tinct and separate entities was as for
eign to the New Testament Christian
ity as many Christs," he said. THE
church was the body Of Christ. 1t was
that divine organism against which
the gates of hell should not prevail.
Such adjectives as Episcopal, Metho-
dist, Presbyterian and Roman Catholic
had not been devised.
Sees Ideals Lowered.
Since New Testament days there
has been a gradual lowering of the
ideals of that period. The kingdom of
God has been superseded by the
church. The church has been super
seeded by the churches, and the
churches by denominations. Denomi-
nations have led down to that unsub-
stantial and undefinable thing called
undenominationalis
"A definite reaction against this
down grade tendency from the king
dom of God has set in. A revival of
the idea of the kingdom of God. of
one church, is being brought about by
The earnest and Intelligent people as a
protest against the inadequacy of &C.
ecclesiastical groups or coteries in rep
resenting the purpose of that king
dom "

Lord Yeovil, on the right hand side
of the Secretary of State, rose to
speak, a slim, dignified figure in the
cool, soft light. He spoke slowly and
very gravely, and his words seemed
chosen to attain to the essence OF
brevity.

the young men from the side table
arose, with a little pile of papers in
his hand. which he distributed around

few minutes to elapse while every
one studied the very simple document
laid before him, translated in each
case into the language of each sepa-
rate representative. Then he rose to
his feet.

CHAPTER XXIII.

The opening session of the limita-
ton of armaments conference was
held in an environment outwardly
calm, but with mutterings of the
storm very clearly audible to those
who knew something of the real
position. The actual surroundings all
made for peace-a stately and digni-
fed chamber, with carefully shaded
windows, cool white walls and oaken
furniture, massive and beautiful with
age. There were 26 representatives
present and secretaries at the side
table, among whom Slattery. by spe-
cial appointment, found place. He
was next to Itash, but the two men
exchanged no greetings. At the ap-
pointed hour the President entered
the room and spoke a few words of
welcome. His allusions to the world s
desire for peace seemed to contain,
perhaps, faint note of irony; other
wise there was nothing to indicate any
foreknowledge of untoward events.
After he had extended his usual formal
invitation to luncheon he left the
room and his place was taken by the
Secretary of State, who embarked at
once upon the proceedings. He de-
clared that on matter of urgency he
had given permission to the English
representative, Lord Yeovil, to make
statement before the agenda was
entered upon. There was little
movement, rustling of papers, as
