An Appeal For Armenlans.

Miss Alice Stone Blackwell,
head of the American Associa-
tion for Armenian Relief, has
appealed to the people as strong
ly as possible in saying that Mr..
Hoover warns that the case for
Armenia is already so desperate
it will now be impossible to save
the lives of thousands of the
people through the coming win
ter. Two hundred thousand,
mostly children, will have to be
the toll of death through hunger
and cold before next spring, it
being too late now to provide a.
gainst this calamity.
Can there be anyone a Chris
tian who, in hearing a recital of
the events of the life and death
of our Lord Jesus Christ, has
mot felt aa impulse. q longing to
have been so placed in life that
his personal love, sympathy, and
help might have been, if only
in any faulty, human way,
shown the Divine Sufferer?
How has He answered that
movement of your soul towards
Him? 'Inasmuch as you have
done it unto these you have
done it unto me-" Do you be-
lieve Him? 1t is certain that if
you do not believe now you
would not have done so at the
time He made you this appeal,
an appeal designed to guide you
down all succeeding centuries
until He should come to speak
audibly to you again.
Contributions of money should
be sent to Mr.. E. N. Hopkins
at Traders Bank.

WENTWORTH OPENS
SEASON WITH VICTORY
Buckner is NOsed Out 20 to Is.
Cadets Show Up Well in
First Game.

AA0N OAzuCs
In game bitterly fought
from start to finish last Friday,
w. M. A. nosed out Buckner by
20 to l8 score. Buckner had
several old university stars in
the game including Johnson,
three years all-Oklahoma tack
le, Powell of X. U. fame, and
''Ug" Sermon of the Springfield
Y. M. c. A. team, recently coach
at Rolla.
Buckner took the jump and
scored a touchdown without
difficulty. w. M. A. came right
back however, and by wonder
ful line plunging Of the back
field, Hollis, Bradfeld, and Bar
ry, carried the ball over and
kicked goal.
A moment later Sermon inter-
cepted forward pass and rae
ed for touchdown, thereby put
ting Buckner again in the lead,
IL to 7.
Again the cadets rallied and
Barry picking up a fumbled ball
crossed the goal line. La Brun-
ierie kicked goal. Score ID to IL
in favor of w. M. A.
BY line plunges, Hollis again
scored for w. M. A. 1t seemed
as if the cadets had safe lead,
but the fleet Serman again fig
ured when he picked up a fun
BILE and ran for a goal. Buck
never kicked a goal.
The game was rough rough
out. Sermon with his head-work
and fast running was half of
Buckner's strength Hollis, -sthe
stocky Texas half of w. M. A.,
was the star, with Bradfeld and
Barry close behind him. Houser,
the Red and White captain, was
the shining light in the line
at end.
In the last three minutes of
play, Wentworth fumbled twice
within the fve-yard line which
cost them another touchdown.
A good opening crowd was
present.

 Secretaries Baker and Daniels have approved the expenditure of funds contributed in the United War Work Campaign for After-the-war welfare work among the fighting men of the American and allied nations. Military leaders insist that the work among the troops now is more necessary than before the armistice, and Dr. JnO. R. Mott,
 director-general of the United War Work Campaign, states with the endorsement of Secre- taries Baker and Daniels, that the Full sum subscribed in the
