Mrs. r. r. Hit, Of Washing
ton, who has rented the house
at Saratoga belonging to Mr..
Walter L. Goodwin.
The last class that I saw at
the great Lucerne Horse Show
was a small class for that coun'
try, only 81 horses.
Two horses held the same rec
ord in this class from the first
10 horses that were shown.
Romanesca, ridden by a
Swiss, and Blarney Castle rid
den by Commandant j. G.
O,Dwyer, of Ireland. The flags
of ireland and Switzerland flew
all afternoon.
These two had to jump off
and the Irishman won amidst
the yells from the many Irish:
Keep the Irish flag flying"
"GoOd old gentleman Barney"
keep old Ireland in front Of
the world"
Blarney Castle is a lovely
horse, IL years old, and very
touched in the wind from the
noise he made, but how he did
pick up his feet over those
jumps that had been raised for
the Jump offs.
However, the wind didn't
matter for as I have said be-
fore they don't judge confirma-
ton in their jumping classes. .
Blarney Castle was one >ot
three who did best in the largest
class at the Olympia Horse
Show.
I didn't see any more Of this
great horse show as we had to
leave Lucerne the next day.
They rested the horses for two
days and what a good time the
people had while the horses
were resting!
Then the show started and
lasted three days longer.
There was q farewell party
given for us that last night, by
the "cavalries of all nations"
My running mate was a great
belle. This party helped make
it very much harder for us to
leave that lovely place and all
the attractive people who gave
us such a grand time.
We invited them all to come
to America and if you meet
them you won't blame me for
being SO enthusiastic.

Asserting that unemployment still

The cryptic message-"Fleet sailed
to the Navy Department tomorrow

will signal the beginning of the Navy's
annual war games.
The fleet, numbering 1l3 vessels
will depart from the San Pedro San
Diego area for the Panama Canal

reaching the canal and later in the
Caribbean Sea.
On May 81. before dividing into
units for Summer stations along the

review before President Roosevelt in
New York Harbor.
The President ordered the fleet to
the Atlantic from the Pacific. where
it has been stationed for nearly three
years, and it will return to the Pacific
under present plans next Fall.
During the first part of the move
ment between San Diego and the
canal, the fleet will be attacked by
a theoretical force somewhere be-
tween the California Coast and the
canal.
The attacking forces will employ
scouts, cruisers and submarines.
Admiral Joseph NJ Reeves, COM

fleet, will command the defending
forces throughout this exercise.

dent Roosevelt signed the bill today.

ing in Chicago before May to work
