After seven years the “tute” light in the lighthouse on the roof of the Seamen’s’ church institute has obtain- ed official recognition on the govern- ment charts of New York horbor. For years this green beacon was lgnored. Later it was recorded” as a “fixed point.” Now It is marked with a star on maps. The lighthouse was erected to com- memorate the heroes of the greatest 0 marine disaster in the modern world, the sinking of .the steamship Titanic i 0| off Newfoundland April 15, 1912 The lighthouse was dedicated . on the first) anniversary of the disaster &s & me- | morial created by public subscription and the work of prominent women. The light called *“tute” by seamen, soon ,was guiding pllots who, as they “turned the Hook” 15 miles or more away, might make out the green and brilliant star supplied by the 7,500/ candle power of three Cooper Hewitt quartz electric lamps 211 feet above the city streets. This green light on the starboard especially provided an excellent range for vessels making their way to the East river. The lighthouse also has carried since November 1, 1918, a time ball 4 feet in diameter which drops each day at “standard mean” noon, when, as 'Arry remarks to Bill down in “the slip,” “she’s jes 5 er’clock in Lunnin.” PR - There are no permanent wise men.— Emerson.
