from the city. We began to worry. Mother
wanted so much to see our home again at Tchem-

to die on my doorstep-if God would just lei me

We dared not go alone into the city to inquire
what was to be done for us-we could only wait
and trust. But our hopes were in vain.
One night, just after the Fifth Prayer, the
streets Of the little city were suddenly cluttered
with horsemen. Some Turkish women who were
just outside the church rushed in to get out of the
way of the horses hOOfs. 'It is Sheikh Zilan,"
they said. "The Sheikh Zilan of the Belek tribe,
who has been called in from the mountains with
his thousand Kurds to fight for the Turksl"
The name of Sheikh Zilan was widely known.
His horsemen had harried the countryside for
many years. 1t was said he frequently made raids
with his tribe into Persia, and even into the Rus
sian Caucasus before the war, to steal girls for
the secret slave markets in European Turkey.
The tribe was on its way into Moush. Entrance

They took and the four girls mother had brought

Special Reasons Why Every American
Should Be Grateful at This Season

Belgium, Serbia, Roumania and parts
of France and Italy.
Be thankful that we are far enough
from the scene Of strife to miss most
of its horrors, but near enough to take
an active and deciding part in the
struggle; that our farms and facto-
ries, mines and marts are spared to
produce the supplies so urgently
needed by our allies.
Be thankful that we have an army
and navy composed of the best ma
terial in the land; our bravest sons
sent forth to fight for the worlds
freedom, as their great-grandfathers
fought for our freedom.
Be thankful that we were not afraid
or dismayed when the summons came,
but stepped forward, prepared to bear
a mans part in the struggle and to
help STAY the beast that threatens the
liberties of the world.
Be thankful that when this war is
over and the victory won, the issues
settled, there will be no more war ;
for the so-called divine right Of kings
and emperors-the right to exercise
despotic sway over their subjects
will be no more.
