' **£, fA ' f 1 - »- m- \T> - ‘Tis the wearing’ av th’ green. A party of Barnwell people return ing from Augusta recently aaw a wolf. Yes, Celestine, we asked them the same question,, # „ Dame F'ashion has wished a new shade of blue on the country. It’s called “the Mrs. Harding blue.” Here’s hoping’ the country won’t suffer from the Mr. Harding "blues.” According to the N^ws and Courier, “it (the latest Russian revolution) either spells the early fall of t^l Lenine regime or gives it a new lease of life.” Naturally. If a man dosen’t die, he lives, r There are today between one and a half million Armenians, homeless, half-naked and starving, scattered throughout the Near East, the re mnants of the oldest Christian nation in the world whom war has utterly impoverished and driven to despair. They appeal to us lo save them. We have food. We have money. We can do the job. It is our clear duty to save these, lest they perish. We have felt little of the war. But with these people loyalty to the ideal they fought for in common with us has meant the annihilation of a million men, Women and children. We have found peace. But with them, the war has never ceased and today it is more cruel and ruthless than it has ever been. If we fought for the security of the world, we have not won until security has been assured these faithful people who were our allies in the struggle, and who have found destitution and hunger and death where we have found tranquility and plenty and contentment. There is no need in the world any where like this need of the Ar menians. Itif absolute, abject misery from which there is no escape save through our help. There are 260,000 little children in that war- devastated land who have been the wards of the American people, through the Near East Relief, for the hast three years. If our aid is with* drawn, these children starve. We have begun the work of saving them. We must carry it through. The appeal of the Near East Relief at this lenten season is for a sacri fice to eave these little children, to save this martyred Christian people. That each man, women and child in the United States give of his plenty that these needy ones may live. What We waste would do it But if, in the spirit of Easter, we sacrifice some thing for the sake of those who have suffered so much, a whole nation will be reborn through us.
