pestilence stalk. Thousands of fol- lowers of Christ, driven from their homes by tho Turks in the world war, bereft of all their possessions, are dying from actual starvation, and the stricken lands around them are un- able to extend a helping hand.
 Jesus is not there In body to per form the miracle of the leaves md fishes, nor to change the water into wine. The places where Christ press ed his feet are now abodes of dire distress. The stricken millions reach out their hands to America for the things that will save their lives.
 America, the land of plenty. un- scathed by war and with her unlinit- ed financial resources undrained, is the only country that can give the required aid. The government can- not do this officially, for there is no nation to deal with-only helpless millions.
 President Wilson, in an official proclamation, has endorsed the Arr menian and Syrian Relief Campaign that will save these starving peoples An appeal is made to America for $30,000,000 to perform the task. Ar kansas is asked to contribute $150, 900 as her share of this fund. Pu. laski county will be expected to contribute SS0,000, or one-tifth of the total for the state. This county's quota is so small that it should bs. raised on the first day Of the cam paign, which begins February and ends February 10.
 Thus this new and proud land of ours, with it's inestimahle resources, is asked to aid the stricken people of the land with tho divine history Christian Arkansaa rccal's the Sa- vior's teachings and will not withhol' the support that will aid in sav n millions of lives.

 NOT FEAR AGE

Seattle, Sept. 19-Fear of old age is not worrying Seattle newspaper women-that is, those that belong to the Newspa per Writers Union. They have something to look forward to. It is the printers home at Colorado Springs.
 All who have been to the printers home, either from force of necessity or for pure pleasure, speak well of the place. These reports almost make some of the newspaper women look forwas-d to old age so that they can spend their declining years at the beautiful institution with their broth CTS in the typographical union.
 Newspaper women will also fall into money when they reach 60 years of age and have been a continuous mem Der of Typographical N. W. 12. I. T. U., for 20 years.

HARBORMASTER
 GETS 2 BUSHELS
 OF HARBOR BLUES

Hart~or Master Lamond has been regaling his friends for some time with stories of his prowess as a fish erman. He said that as he himself was not fond of fish he always dis tributed his catch among his friends.
 Yestesday he went fishing off Sasco Hill, Southport, and in the evening he returned with two busheI baskets filled with bluas which he proudly ex- hibited to his admiring and expectant friends, who saw visions of a tooth some Friday dinner for themselves and families.
 But the visions faded when the har- Dor master took both baskets to his car and drove away, while his disap- pointed audience formed themselves into a grievance committee and in no uncertain terms expressed their opin- ion of a man who intended to dispose of two bushels of fish for his T.lGc.y dinner.

TUPpER ADMITS CARRANZA GOVT
 EMPLOYED HIM
He Approved Pursuit of Villa By General
 Pershing.

Washington, Sept. 19.-Dr. Henry Allen Tupper told the Senate sub committee Investigating the Mexican situation today that he had received approximately $3.4OO from the Car ranza government in settlement of ex- penses he had incurred. Documen- tary evidence had been submitted to the committee indicating that Dr. Tupper had been on the Carranza payroll, presumably for his work for peace under the supervision of the International Peace Forum.
 The witness said he had repeatedly refused remuneration for his services, but that when pressed by Charles A. Douglas, the attorney for the Carran- "a government, he hal accepted the draft, which was made part of the committees record last week. He claimed the payment was on a basis of expense of S3 a, day and said he Ina ! received no other payment of any sort
 pr. Tupper also admitted that Car ranza had presented his daughter with wrist watch and himself with a watch and fob, engraved with an ex- pressien of friendship. ''These," he said, "I accepted as a gentleman"
 Dr. Tupper sc i'd he had approved the pursuit of Villa by Pershing and regretted it had not been more sue cessful As to intervention, he said, he believed it should be resorted to only as the last of last resorts"
 pr. Tupper filed letters and other documents to support his statements, including letters from congressman anr government officials and one message of felicitation from Presi- dent Wilson.
 DT. Tupper read to the committee letter from pr. Douglas saying reiIn- bursement was due him as he had worked ably for the cause of the revolution"
 On cross examination pr. Tupper said there were numerous provisions of the Mexican constitution of 1917 which he could not approve. Devel- opment of education has not been as rapid as he expected, he said
 Regarding his earlier writing on the Mexican problem, he said, T have changed my mind on a good many of those subjects. At that time thought I knew all about it. Now I know ] don't"
 Chairman Fall read Into the record the report of I. c. Weller, in charge of an American Red Cross expedition in Mexico, in 1915. Until now the re- port had been withheld from publi- cation It told of an assault on the Red Cross train and the difficulties thrown about the work of distribu- tion by Carranza officers. The op- position was so great that further ef- fort to continue the work was use less, Weller reported, and the expe- dition was withdrawn.
