ARMENIAN AND SYRIAN RE
LIEF CAMPAIGN MONDAY

without food, without clothes
without hope-and blindness creep
ing on from starvation.
If you feel you cannot give to such
a cause and your conscience remains
silent, then you have right to re-
fuse.
And they ask so little-just
enough to sustain life until harvest
time in their own country when
they may find their place in the sun
The campaign for funds and food
for these people, the starving and
ragged people Of Armenia and Syria
innocent victims Of the hate and ven
geance of the Huns and their allies
In the far East, will begin in this
city and county next Monday. 1t Is
earnestly hoped that there will be
a generous response. Mr.. Chas. B.
Mitchell has been appointed County
Chairman, and Mr.. w. w. Mitchell,

is Treasurer. Contributions will be
received by the latter at the bank,

Mr.. Mitchell is in receipt of let
ter from State Chairman, stating
that in one district alone in the de-
vastated country, 1000 people will
starve to death unless relief is afford
ed them within the next thirty days.
Crops have been a total failure,
thousands have lost everything they
possessed, and if they can be tided
over until the new crops come in
they will be self-sustaining. 1t was
also stated that things had come to
such a pass in those countries that
children are living on two bowls of
soup apiece each day. If they show
that they have not lost weight they
do not get even the soup the next
day, as the. article is distributed to
others who need it.
Mr.. Mitchell asks the good people
of the city and county to come to
the relief of these starving people,
and signify their humanitarian
instincts by subscribing to the fund
or by donating foodstuffs that will
help to sustain life. Donations OF
cash will be accepted. as the money
will be forwarded to headquarters
and used to the best advantages In
the alienation. of suffering.
Remember the campaign will begin
next Monday. Show you are friends
of civilization and the good of the
world by helping these people.

REFUGEE CLOTHING CAMPAIGN
TO START NEXT MONDAY.

Miss Elizabeth Steele, County
Chairman of the French and Belgian
Relief Committee; asks THE NEWS
to announce to the people of Paris
and the county that the campaign
in the interest of securing clothing
for the French and Belgian refu-
gees, made homeless during the great
world war. will begin on next Mon
day, March "a.
Miss Steele will appoint sub-com-
mittees who will make a house-to-
house canvass for the purpose Of Sc
curing clothing. Donations of plain
clothing for men, women and chill
dren are asked for. Suits, coats,
shoes, and other articles that will
help to clothe the refugees are es-
pecially solicited, and will be CRATE
fully received. Those making the
donations who do not wish to have
the responsibility of delivering the
goods can have them called for by
calling Miss Steele, who will make
arrangements for sending for them.
There have been campaigns and
campaigns Of different kinds, but
this Is one Of the most worthy ones.
There is hardly a home in Paris but
where there Is some discarded arti-
Gle Of wearing apparel that can well
be spared for the relief of the refu-
gees. Look through your posses
sions, turn over the old clothes in
the closets and the attics and you
will be sure to find something that
will receive a warm welcome among
the refugees. When you have found
an old suit or an old coat, an old pair
of shoes that are still good, but
which you have discarded, call Miss
Steele or tell one of the soliciting
committee and have them notify her,
and the articles will be sent for. p.

NEGRO MAN VICTIM OF AUr0M0.
BILE ACCIDENT.

Failure to hear the warning sound
ed by an automobile horn on the ma
chine in which Mr.. Geo. w. Clay and
his father, Mr.. Thos. Henry Clay,
were driving on the Winchester pike,
Tuesday afternoon, caused the death
OF Sam SchoOler, colored, aged sixty.
The accident occurred near the
home Of Mr.. Charlton Clay, on the
Winchester pike, short distance
from Paris, about two o'clock in the
afternoon. Both Schooler and the
Clay machine were heading in the
same direction. Mr.. George w. Clay,
who was driving, saw the man walk
ing in the middle of the pike, a short
distance ahead of him. and sounded
his horn repeatedly, giving ample
warning Of its approach. Schooler
evinently became confused upon
hearing the machine so close to him,
as he turned in the wrong direction,
and was struck by the car. Mr.. Clay
made every effort to stop the ma
chine, running 1t in the ditch at the
side of the road, but too late to avoid
the accident. The machine struck q
stone fence at the side of the pike,
and was slightly damaged. When
struck Schooler was knocked down
and piniOned under the car, his skull
being crushed, causing instant death.
Mrs. VIM. Woorford came along in
her car few minutes after the ac-
Their back to Paris, where the acct
dent was reported to the authorities.
They then returned to the scene in
a machine secured from a local gar
age. The body Of Schooler was re-
leased from under the Clay machine
and was sent to the undertaking es-
tablishment of Ed. Martyr, on High
street, where it was prepared for
burial. In the pockets of the dead
man were found two receipts for sup
plies purchased at the grocery of p.
J. McElhone & Co., in Lexington; q
paper containing the address of Mrs.
Bette Schooler, $50 Clinton street,
Cincinnati; several interurban car
tickets from Lexington to Paris, and
about fifty cents in coin. He had
been evidently going to work as a
farm laborer, as he was dressed In
overalls and carried a package over
his shoulder, which proved to con-
tain a luncheon.
Mr.. Clay gave a clear and concise
report Of the accident, which tended
to show that he was not, to blame for
the unfortunate occurrence. He said
that he did all he could to stop the
car in time, but that the man jumped
directly in front of 1t, and that he
could not avoid hitting him.
Coroner Davis held an investiga-
ton into the circumstances sur
rounding the accident, at the court
house yesterday afternoon at two
o'clock. The testimony of Mr.. Geo.
w. Clay and Mr.. Thos. Henry Clay,
the only eye-witnesses, was taken.
The jury, composed of H. M. Col
Inns, foreman Newton Mitchell, A.
S. Thompson, G. w. Redmon, I. l..
Price and e. B. Myers, returned
verdict. absolving Mr.. Clay from all
blame for the unavoidable accident.
