i SCHOOL NOTES
Nourishment-Then Education
- yOE:..:oE


 The Armenians are one of the oldest races of people in the world and they were once highly civilized. They had an alphabet of 36 charac- ters, but since the advent of the Turks, the language has been split up into four different dialetcs, which contain many Turkish words and grammatical constructions. h Armenians are very religious people, and the Bible was translated into their language as early as, the fifth century. In observing the Lords Supper, they use pure wine and leavened bread, this being dipped into the wine before using.
 The Turks first attacked the Ar menians in 1894. The following year, they conducted an extensive massacre, killing thousands of Ar menians Again, during the war re- gently ended, the Turks and Kurds have swept over Armenia like mighty wave of destruction, and have left broad trail of desolation and misery in their wake.
 In Armenia there are now practi- cally no adults. 1t is a nation of children; children who wander over the bare fields crying for food and warmth. Gone are their homes, gone their parents, gone everything once dear to them, under the feet of the merciless Turks,
 Today there comes call from far Armenia to help feed and educate these starving children, so that they may live to grow up and build their beloved country into the nation that it once was.
 Baths and soup are part of the education in Armenia at the present time Both are necessary for the thousands of orphans who have been gathered from the 250,000 left par entless by the Turks. A bowl of soup day is first aid to education in the schools maintained by the Near East Relief Fund. When a child is taken in from the roadside or fields, bath is the first necessity. These two things have been unknown to them through the awful years of war. Clean clothing then transforms the little waifs into beings more like children than animals.
 The soup lesson is the best liked These children have been starved for years, and many are so far gone that even soup would at first be fatal to them. Warm milk prepares them for more substantial foods. After this, some hot soup and bit of bread daily helps prepare them for the resumption of their educa- ton.
 Education in Armenia is now con ducted under heavy handicaps.. So far, the only schools are those main tained by the Near East Relief Fund The Turks wrecked every school, and there is absolutely no school building available. The pupils sit on the earth floor, while the teacher in structs them from an improvised platform.
 Are you going to let these children die through lack of the necessary funds to give them life and educa- ton? They need not starve if you open your heart and your pocket book to them.

day and by noon | would be almost
completely tagged out. My nerves
were in such bad shape l could not
sleep more than two or three hours
anv night. l also had night sweats,
which weakened me so l could hardly
get out of bed in the morning and for
the past several months 1 had a dread
full pain in my chest that worried me
great deal. I just felt tired and worn
out all the time, and, to tell the truth,
while | managed some how to stay on

81 heard so many people. praising
Tanlac that l decided to try it myself
and after l had finished my first bottle
I was praising Tanlac as much as any
body else. l continued taking it until
now l am feeling as good as l ever
did in my life. That tired, worn out
feeling has left me entirely and 1 have
regained my strength so that instead
of my work being drag on me l
really enjoy it. My nerves are in the
best kind OF shape and l sleep all night
long every night without waking till
morning. The pain in my chest is gone
entirely and never have an ache or a
pain Of any kind, in fact, I feel so good
since began taking Tanlac can hard

to tell everybody about what blessing
this grand medicine has been to me-"
