Sixty nine men in uniform enjoyed
the Sunday breakfast at the local
Young Mems Christian Association
which was, as usual served by women
of the w Auxiliary and several young
ladies. The company was an unusual
~ happy one, the bright morning, the
home cooked food, the ladies serving
and the very practical address, all con-
tributed TO the enjoyment of the occa-
sion, President James L. Case gave 4
ten-minutc address which was a real
heart to heart talk. The speaker said
in part: Men, we are very glad to see
so many OF the army and navy fellows
here this beautiful morning: we arc
happy to serve you here in this asso-
citation. / want to call your attention
to the portraits of two men hanging in
the parlors; one is the portrait of
Hugh H. Osgood the other of Water

very valuable assets to this commu-

ward but they have left behind them
splendid influences for good.
Both of these men We're active i'll the

show our belief in the practical use
of it-a chance to save the people,
and slowly build up new life for
them. Only one fifth Of their popula-
ton of hundred million are now
living. America, with it's practical
good sense, has already done some
thns in the way of help; fifty nurses,
doctors field hospitals, agricultural
tools, fifty sewing machines, a million
yards Of muslin and as much OF cali

relief ship. 1t is our chance to help
and not pass by like the priest and
Levite, of the parable
Today the most hated nation in The
world to an Armenian, is Germany.
and the most loved and trusted are
the English and Americans who have
brought them hope and encourage

persecution, while the English speak

America, which for one hundred years

on which any Armenian would stake
his life. Plans are already in process
for celebrating the centenary Of the
first two American missionaries,
Pliny Fisk and Levi Parsons grad
mont, and of Andover, who went a
hundred years ago to render the first
American aid to these suffering peo-
pies. Theirs is a long and splendid
story Of Christian helpfu1ness, for
neither men ever saw his native land
again.
Mr.. Hubert, who was himself mis-
sionary, and whose daughter has fol
lowed in his footsteps, gave vivid de
scriptions of former journeys through
Palestine, and Shiloh witnessing the
passover festival of the Samaritans
by moonlight and many other bits OF
personal experience which made his
address particularly impressive Els
pecially, he voiced the need of more

this suffering nation, towards whom

much more must be raised, if the souls

Drawing an obvious lesson from the

people of the far Eeastern countries
All over Asia Minor the most
pathetic appeals for help are coming

ounce of bread or flesh-even the cats

also been chronic from time imme-
mortal; these odern days have only
brought on the final cataclysm of pow
erty and death The very essential
heart of cruelty is found in the Orient,
which spreads everywhere, making an
empire filled with the same terrible
sentiments
The Armenian massacres are just
one example of this fiendish cruelty,
which fiourishes in the Ottoman en-
pire. When the poor remnant left of
Armenia came lettering down to
Northern Syria, to the city of Aleppo.
it was found through questioning the
Turks, that they instigated such mas
sacres simply because they were fol-

the Turks admitted they had no spec

just following the cue taken from
Germany. which even years ago. had
spread her pernicious teachings there
This statement was printed in the
German papers, before publicity was
censored.
And now, the present question is

Of course, Chief Porky did not

every one in the forest. Nor did he
want to know everybody's business,

desire to be left alone, that he might
wander about, tasting the bark of the

He was appointed chief of the for

anyone because of friendship, but in
stead would give each one what was
due him.

distance ahead. No sooner had he
said this to himself than he noticed

Now the Hunter and his Hound
had a grudge against Chief Porky
because he patrolled the forest and
warned others when the Hound ap-
preached. So it was always their
desire to catch Chief Porky mapping
and kill him. The Hound was sneak

He wanted to see whether Chief

self or not. AS the Hound drew near
supposing the Poreupine to be I'M
aware of his presence, the thorn
quills on Chief Porky began to
rise until they were all straight up
on his back. When the Hound came
close, he made cne leap, with open
jaws and grabbed Chief Porky in
the back. No sooner had he leaped
than he began cry. For the quilts
sank deer into his tongue and
mouth.
And this was Got all; instantly
Chief Porky switched his tail and
dozens of quills pierced Mr..
Hounds back and ribs. He backed
away as soo1 as possible to roll on

reached his side, Chief Porky had
broad grin on his face.
