i Armenian Relief.

State Chairman ]. Y. Joyner
has appointed Jas. R. Bennett, of
Ellerbe, as Chairman for Rich
mond county to raise the county's
quota of $4,000 for the Armenian
Syrian relief.
Mr.. Bennett has appointed the
following as chairmen for the
various townships, and these in
turn will appoint their canvass
ing committees: Mrs. w. N. Ev-
erett, Rockingham; Rev. ]. H.
Buffalo, Hamlet: Mrs. John
Sandy Covington, Wolf Pit; A. ].
Butler, Beaver Dam; Prince
OBrien, Mineral Springs No. j.;
R. V. Ussery, Mineral Springs
No. 2; J. w. Capel, Black Jack;
Alfred Baldwin, Lower Steele's;
J.L. Baldwin, Upper Stcele's.
The ministers IF the county
are urged to speak to their con-
gregations concerning the impor-
tance of this relief work, and to
take special collections for it,
turning same over to their town
ship chairman. Also, the teach
ers of the schools are asked to
get their pupils interested.
The Drive will begin Monday,
for the county, and the people
are asked to respond literally.
Each day brings forth new ap-
peals from the Near East, and
the stories that come in from our
workers over there indicate that
the situation is steadily growing
worse. Women and children are
dying every hour. One story
that comes from a worker says
that he himself saw women and
children tearing the flesh from
the carcas of a horse that had
died; they were eating the flesh
law. This is but one OF the
many things we hear direct from
the people on the ground.
North Carolina has raised more
than sixty per cent of her quota
but the people will not be salts
fled until they have given the
last penny asked of them by the
American Committee.
No man or woman would per
NIT a child to starve right ir
their own neighborhood. There
are five million starving not fal
from us, and we must save then
by giving our money.
