Since the beginning of the war the
Turkish ArmenMns have been largely
refugees from their homes. A simple

exiles from their farms, deprived OF
all opportunity to support themselves.
Year by year their sufferings have in.
creased. Now, year after fighting
has ceased, they are still living the
life of nomads, able to continue to
keep alive only by virtue of American
| philanthropy.
These homeless peOple-"fllthy inf.

to exert their poor might in our be.
half while the war was still in the
balance. Massacres of half century
had not so broken their spirit that
they dared not fight for right and for
democracy when justice was the issue.
We accepted their aid then. Surely
we shall not pass them by without
compassion now.

TWO MEN KILLED
IN AUTO ACCIDENT
NEAR CHINOOK

Chinook, June 26.-Gilman McKin-
ME, a real estate man of Chinook, and
Joseph Farquhar, a wool buyer from
Boston, with headquarters at Ogden,
Utah, are dead as the result OF an au-
tomobile accident which occurred south
of this place late Friday night.
The men had started towards the
Miller Brothers sheep hearing pens
south of town and when out about two
miles the car ran into a soft spot in
the road and turned over, pinning both
beneath. 1t is believed that Farquhar
who was driving the car, was killed
instantly.
Although McKinnie was MORALLY
injured, he was extricated by someone
who lived near the road and heard
the crash, and he ran some distance
for help, collapsing upon his return
and dying from an internal hemor-
rhage.
Physicians and other help from
town were soon upon the scene and
the bodies were brought here. Nc
Kinnie leaves a wife and four chill
dren.
Hallowell, Jones & Donald, the Bos-
ton wool firm which has been repre-
scented for a number of years by Far
quhar, has been requested to notify
his relatives, and a member of the
firm will arrive from Utah Tuesday
to take charge of the body.

NEW YORK CABARET is

"A faithful reproduction of the Cafe

way dance palaces, is the feature of
"On With the Dance" the George
fltzmaurice Production featuring Mae

DC shown for two days commencing
wednesday at the Orpheum theatre.
The gay cabaret was built at the Par

from minute photographs.
Several hundred "extras.n two inv
bands, famous professional eccentric
and "shimmy" dancers, and the entire
corps of walters from a Broadway

actors, actresses and public personapes
OF New York were present when the
scenes We're "shot' and are seen as
diners at the various tables. This
episode is declared to be one of the
most brilliant and elaborate of it's kinf
ever filmed.
Mae Murray has the role of a dan.
eng girl, and is, of course, the cente,
OF interest. David Powell has the
chief male part. The story is one OF
intense heart appeal and dramatic
conflict. 1t was adapted by Ouids

ACTION
AGAINST CALF.
EXCLUSION IDEA

Widespread attention is being CIV
en- in Japan to the recrudescence of
~anti-Japanese agitation in California.
The national convention of chambers
of commerce adopted a resolution de-
claring that the agitation is assuming
grave proportions and expressing the
fear that if it is left unchecked the
interests Of Japanese in California;
the result of years of toll, will be
doomed.
"This is regrettable for American
japanese amity," the resolution says.
I'VE must arouse public opinion, raise
the voice of Justice against the anti
japanese movement and seek perma-
nent solution of the question invol-
we'd"
The resolution requests the appoint
ment of a committee of as, to include
members of the diet, to discuss defen-
slve ways and means.
Virtually all the newspapers agree
IN expressing the belief that the Amer
lean people themselves will prevent
any injustice. The Yorozu Chobo on
the other hand, attacks the United
States for its enthusiastically con-
verted ideas of Bismarck and Bern
hardi," and says it thinks it quite
impossible to hope for the friendship
of America"

WEE CANARY BIRD TIES UP
TRAFFIC IN A GREAT CITY

Kansas City, June ia fugitive
canary bird, weary Of life in a wicker
cage in a downtown bon-bon shop,
escaped and completely blocked traf-
fic today at Twelfth street and Bal
timere avenue here in the downtown
hotel district.
The bird flew to a hotel window
ledge. The cashier sent a negro boy
with the cage to get it. AS the boy
sought to catch the bird, the crowd
cheered and shouted advice. The can
airy flew from ledge to ledge, and the
negro climbed up poles and onto mo-
tor cars trying to get it into the cage.
A fight between the canary and
sparrows enlivened things. The negro
finally placed the open cage upon a
window sill. The canary looked at
it obviously. The warlike sparrow,
with another pirate of the same tribe,
swooped down again. Nearer the
cage hoped the perturbed canary.
A black hand shot out and clutched
the golden feathers and thrust the
frightned songster into the cage.
It took a squad Of policemen ten
minutes to get traffic back to normal.

MOTOR IS
MADE IN HAWAII

Motorists in the Hawaiian islands
are not worrying these days about
any actual or impending shortage of
gasoline.
ga substitute for gasoline is now
being produced there" says a repre-
sentative of a prominent rubber COM
pany, (which within the next three
months will reach a production suf-
ficient to take are of all the cars
on all Of the islands, if a gasoline
shortage should develop.
"The new fuel is known as motor
alcohol and is the invention of a chem
list on one of the big sugar plantations
on the island of Maui. 1t is now be-
ing used in many cars and the re-
suits obtained are said to be in many
ways superior to those achieved with
gasoline. More power, greater mile
age, easier starting and freedom from
carbon are among the benefits it is
said to produce. 1t can also be used
without any REIMBURSEMENT of carbur-
etor.
"The motor alcohol that has been
made SO far has been produced from
molasses, of which there are 1876 900
tons available, enough to produce o.
100000 gallons of motor alcohol. The
molasses is a by-product of the sugar
industry of the island and contains,
in addition to fermentable material,
other products of value, such as pot
ash, nitrogen and phosphoric acid. The
value of these after recovery from
the fermentation, is greater than the
value of the original molasses. so that
in calculating costs of the fermenta-
ton process for alcohol production,
the raw material charge is practically
nothing.
"The Importance of developing this
industry is very considerable, as it
will provide a cheap and readily avail
able motor fuel, releasing both petrol
cum fuel and shipping space. The
motor alcohol made according to the
new formula is performing perfectly
in marine, stationary, automobile,
truck and tractor gasoline engines. In
a 36-hour test made with a 75-horse-
power tractor the motor alcohol con-
sumption was four gallons per hour
as compared with four and one-half
gallons Of gasoline on similar work.
With the motor alcohol the speed was
higher and the power greater. The
cylinders were afterwards opened and
examined and the old carbon deposit
was found to be entirely removed. The
carbon remaining was so soft that it
could be picked off with the fingers.
plantations which have been let
ting their molasses run to waste or
burning it for the potash recovery are
now finding the manufacture of motor
alcohol a profitable undertaking.

In the case of hogs, the births dur
ing January, February, March and
April were about 10 per cent fewer
than in the same months last year.
he marketings have fallen off about
Is per cent; the farm slaughter vas
about the same in both seasons; but
the deaths on farms this year are
wei 40 per cent heavier than last
year to May 1. Taking into consid-
Grafton both the births and the deaths
(from all causes), it appears that
there has been a relative reduction Of
about 5 per cent during the first A
months of this year as compared with
the trend during the first four months
of last year.
The births of calves from January
1 to May / were about % per cent
fewer this year than last year. The
net disposition of cattle by market
ings, farm slaughter, and deaths was
about 8 per cent greater than last
year; it appears that there has been

cent in total number Of cattle as COM
pared with last year during the four
months January l to May /.

THEATRE AND CHURCH IN ONE

The problem of how to supply the
community with both a church and
theatre on money sufficient for only

auditorium with a stage at one end
of the hall and a pulpit at the other,
according to a Y. w. C.. A. dramatic
director who visited the town recently.
This novel arrangement ~diplomatical-
ly meets certain apparent objections
and at the same time gives the prop
