TALKS on EUROPEAN NATIONS
DIR. GEORGE WHITE GIVES INTER-
EsTING ADDRESSES AT HIGH
SCHOOL AND CHURCH

DR.. George E. White, president Of
.Anatolia college, Marsovan, Turkey,
gave an interesting address on the SUBJ
iect "Two Years Behind the Turkish
Lines' at the Congregational church
Sunday and on "Turks, Teutons and
Russians at the high school auaitcri-
UNI Monday evening.
Dr. White and his wife spent several
years doing missionary work in Tur-
key, ceasing only when DR.. White was
ordered to leave there year ago. AZ
the college of which he was president
was a girls seminary, theological
seminary, school for deaf and dumb
GIRLS, the college building and hos.
pital. The enrolment at the school
before the war was over four hundred,
with a faculty Of about 25. The place
where the college is located IS IN the
interior of Turkey and to reach it peo'
pie travel in spring wagons.
In the spring of 1915, DR.: White
said, the Turks started to eliminate
the Armenians, who are Christians
The surrender of Armenians at the col.
1ene was demanded by the Turks and
the Armenians, who were in conceal
ment, finally yielded, rather than to
bring harm to others at the college,
They were taken away and the men
were slain and it was not learned what
was done with the women. Previously
Armenian girls were sent to turkish
harems or were sold on the streets
to the highest bidders. DR.. White de.
scribed the hardships experienced at
the school the following term, when
oil was not available for the lamps,
and many other necessities could not
he secured. They had enough food'
however, he said.
Tn the spring of 1916 DIR. White was
notified to leave and the college was
taken to be used as a military hospl'
tai. DR.. White and a number Of 9th
ers were taken to the capital and then
to the seaport, where they were put
on board ship and returned to TINS
country.
In his lecture at the high school au
ditorium Monday evening under the
auspices of the Musical Art club the
speaker talked largely about the same
things as in his address on Sunday, ex.
cept that he described the growth OF
the Turkish empire from nation OF
but few hundred families to pow
erful nation. He said that in 1881
Germany, feeling the need OF expan
sion. selected course through Aus
tria and southeastern Europe. The
German influence was from then or
strongly felt in Turkey and resulted
in the Germans securing control of thu
Dardanelles and most Of Turkey. DR.
White said the German system was 81
perfected that German literature rela
tive to war was distributed and thu
Turkish armies were being modified
three months before the death of Arch
duke Ferdinand, and for which thu
war was said to have been started
Little Falls herald. [volume] (Little Falls, Morrison County, Minn.) 1889-1950, 1917-09-28

The present war has caused immense
suffering among the Turks, he said.
There have been immense losses in
lives because Of disease and scarcity
Of food, clothing, medical care, etc.
DR.. White devoted a, short time to
telling about the Russians, conditions
in their country, their progress, and
the part they are taking in the pres
ent war.
