Near East Drive.

During the week of October 1922,
worn clothing drive week will be
held throughout the United States
for the purpose of collecting cloth
ing to protect the destitute people
Of the Near East. Reports coming
from the government authorities in
Armenia and Syria state that refu-
gees, mostly children, are mere hui
man remnants unprotected from the
elements and the rigors of winter
by even the dignity of rags. The
most favored of them have mere
shredded rags.
From the desert to which, nearly
four years ago, they were driven by
the Turks to perish, come the child
rem of Armenia-those that are left
of them. In groups of twos and
threes they come, tired and hungry,
clad only in dirty rags. With them
sometimes are their mothers; more
often their fathers having been

slavery to die of abuse-they are or
phans. The survivors have barely
existed. Their food has consisted of
roots and think of it, fragments
from refuse heaps and the rotting
corpses of animals, themselves dead
of, starvation.
These nations are looking to Unit
ed States for help. The Federation
of Women's Clubs of Edgerton has
taken upon itself the work of gather
all worn clothing which is stih wear
able, for the relief of these suffer-
ers during the winter months. Clotn-
ing for men, women and children
will be gratefully received and should
be left at the Public Library OF at

Store. The United States Navy has
provided ship that will sail NO

MHEN MICHIGAN WENT DRY

When Michigan went dry the liquor
men painted gloomy pictures Of the
prospective failure Of the hotels with
out liquor. But what really has hap
pened? After 2 period Of prohibition
il has been announced that the demand
for accommodation is 50 great that z
new $4,000, 900 hotel with 1000 rooms
is 10 be erected AZ once. On the heels
Of this comes q statement from the
management Of the Pop" concerts
given AZ this season by members Of
the Boston Symphony orchestra that
patronage at these concerts is better
without intoxicsnts being served The
wonder is that even a fast decreasing
few still cling 10 the false economic
argument Of loss Of business without
LIQUOR when experience is constantly
proving that business improves with
the elimination Of drink.-Christian

MEDAL DEDICATED TO
 AMERICAN AIR FORGE

ROME, June P (by maiD Dora Ohlfsen, designer of the Anzac medal, has produced in her Rome studio a new medical dedicated to the Ameri- can air force. The face side consists of the head of an American aviator, the model for which had served in the American air force operating on Italys fronts, surrounded by an ale g0rical design symboIical of Americas will and power.
 The reverse side of the medal is symbOlicaI of the task America accom- plished in transporting her fighting forces across the seas, and bears an inscription from President Wilson's message to congress which reads:
 There is, therefore. but one re- sponse possible from us: Force force to the utmost; force without stint or limit-the righteous and triumphant force which shall make right the law of the world, and cast every selfish dominion down in the dust"
 Miss Ohlfsen is an Australian.
