preyed on tenderfeet, the community,
and all others unfortunate enough to
come their way.
I1eonie shook her head dolefully at
the general unworthiness of mankind
and left the place and started for the
log cabin she called home.
1t was home to Leonie because
there lived old Mr.. and Mrs. Dorsey.
They had been as father and mother

Burrell they found he had died of a
malignant fever. All he had to leave
them was the rude cabin and ten acres
of surrounding land. There was a dig

Whoever proposes to discourage vice

A PRAYER
For The Afflicted Peoples of Arme-

prepared by the Rt. Rev. Daniel
the Protestant Episcopal Church in
the United States of America.)
o God, our Heavenly Father, who
art unceasing in goodness and loving
kindness to the sons of men, and of
plying mercy towards them that suf-
fer, we commend to Thy Almighty
care and protection the afflicted peo-
Piles of the distant East, the Assyri-
ans and Armenians and the Syrians
living in Turkey and in the Russian
Caucasus, in Persia and in Egypt.
Relieve, we pray Thee, the distress
and torture of the Christians in these
border. lands. Assuage their grief.
Supply their wants. Save them from
massacre, destitution, famine and
from the horrors of deportation and
the women and innocent children
from the shameful perils of captivity.
Incline the hearts of all the world to
assist them to rebuild their ruined
homes and to secure seed to sow and
clothes to wear. May the good ex-
amples of those who have kept the
faith and died the martyrs death
avail to strengthen them that remain
to resist temptation and to stand the
firmer for righteousness and truth,
and, by Thy grace, may dutiful sub
mission to Thy will abide with them,
and a sweet spirit of resignation and
even of forgiveness, and may the
days of their suffering be shortened,
to Thine honor and glory, through
the merits and mercies of Jesus
Christ our Savior, Amen.
