100000 enslaved Greeks from thAl districts along the Black Sea, the is- lands and coast of the Sea of Mar>5 mora, the Straits of DaTdanelles, and even as far as the Archipelago, the European and Asiatic coasts, and in the most ruthless manner. These un- fortunate people are subjected to all sorts of suffering, atrocities and even massacre. They are allowed almost no food, and everything is done to force them to renounce Christianity and be converted to Mohammedan- | ism. The young men are recruited into the Turkish army by force; just |. a slice of bread is allowed them daily, sufficient to produce gradual exhaus-' ton, and they are mostly employeda1n hard labor.
 ''The extermination of all these, f1ourishing communities of Greeks, Armenians and Syrians was instigatedl by the Germans, who, 20 years ago, found by investigation that Asia Minor was a rich and fertile, well- forested country with spacious sea- ports. They decided to get possession of the land, and the only obstacle t@3 their pan-German expansion being thei Greek element, which stood against them like bulwark, they decided that the best method of realizing their oo~i iect would be to Turkify the country. The Turkif1cation of the country has been accomplished in the most methodical and synchronized man-' ner.''
 MT. Kyriakfdes, who is g. graduate of Robert College and has been g. steamship owner for many years-all
 of his ships save one, however, have been torpedoed- explained that he, was going about the United States on sort of educational mission seekings to enlighten the people of the coun- 1 try on the undeniable rights of Hell lentsm and sufferings of the Greeks under Turkish mastery. Speaking of
 recent events in Bulgaria, MT. Kyria- 1 kides added: "I am pleased to say | that Bulgaria has surrendered uncon- 1 ditional1y, an armfstice signed, and | the rights of the Greeks and Serbians I are protected by our allies. More
 over Eastern Macedonia will be evac-
 uated by the Bulgars, and the Greeks
 are beginning to get possession of their
 lands once more."

In 1646 he returned to Canada and. after concluding treaty between the French and the Mohawks, he discovered Lake George, which he named Lake of the Blessed SaoR%ment In September he left Quebec for a missionary trip to the Mohawk coun- try, saying to a freind.

Cavell's Cousin in Army

No n could have hailed the en-
more real joy than he. 1t would give
him his long awaited opportunity to
gain some recompense for the murder
of his cousin, he thought. He was
again doomed to disappointment. A re-
cruiting officer told him that he was
too small. Nothing dauntcd, he car-
ried his case to Washington in person
and the matter was placed before the
war department through IN influential
army officer in Chicago.
Permission was given him to vOlun-
tecr In the signal corps, and this he
did in Chicago last June. He has just
been transferred TO Camp Gordon as a
member of the outpost company of the
311th signal battalion under Major
Hemphill. Eagerly deyoting himself
to his duties and apt to learn, he al
ready has been scheduled for the rank
of top sergeant in his company. He
also has developed his physique until
now he is as hardy as the best soldier
In the army. He hopes for Il transfer
to the aviation section. as it is the goal
Of his ambition to hurl bombs on the
Boches from the air.
A visitor to Camp Gordon this week
TO sec his son.. Cavell's father called
OF Captain Allen of the outpost com
pany and recited the story Of Law
rence's long bafled determination of
revenge, q thing the boy himself had
been too modest to do.
The father said the lad had been
brought up IN the same house in Kent
with Miss Cavell. and that her rela-
tionship to him was rather that of Il
devoted elder sister than Of Il cousin.
ut matters not what branch Of sery-
ice l am in" the boy told his father.
Il shall die satisfied only when l have
drawn blood for blood, and l pray God
to live to see hat day. l expect to.
He will answer my prayer.

hearing In cold blood by the kaiser.
She was an English girl. and they

severe, no hardship too trying death

permitted to put bullets into German
hearts as that firing squad under or
ders put them into my Cousins heart.
| am in the war for a purpose and !
shall accomplish It."
Deeply grained as his hatred Of the
Teuton race had grown, Mr.. Cavell
said that his son had no quarrel with
individual Germans. Scores of them in
Chicago, he added. had expressed to
his family their Mortified resentment
of the execution Of Miss Cayell.
