The story is as follows: THE FALL OF CONSTANTINOPLE-A Thc whole history of the Ottoman Turks ts a romaneo. To trace their pedigree we must look back. Into remote an tiquity. Although everything In the early history ot Cen tral and Eastern Asia ls more or lesa conjecture, lt ta cer tain that there were two racea which alternately filled the rote of "the scourges of God," the Mongols and the Turks. The thirteenth century had halt run Ita course when a Sel juk Sultan waa one day bard beset aear Angora by a Mon gol host. Ertoghrul, a member of the Oghue tsmtly ol Turks, waa Journeying from the banks of the Euphrates, when he unexpectedly came upon the battlefield of An gora. Loving a scrimmako and seeing that the weaker side waa getting the worst of it, be led hts four hundred riders Into the fray and won the day. Thus waa the foundation of "Turkey In Europe" laid. Little did the impulsive Turk think that by his chivalrous act he had taken the first step towards founding an empire . whir h baa, In the later centuries, been and still ls an In tonso political problem.

In two generations the little body of shepherds ned pos- . sessed themselves of the whole of the northwest corner of Asia Minor. Before Orkhan. tba new Sultan lay a val uable prise.
