Of the horrors Of Turkish massacres
and deportatfons. Saved by an Ameri-
can woman, she has come to this coun-
try and entered oberlin College.
With her came fourteen other Arme-
MAN girls In charge Of Miss Adelaide
S. Dwight, Near East Relief worker,
who has been instrumental in helping
to save hundreds Of thousands of their
people from death by starvation. Miss
Dwight, who is not given to exagger-
alton and has seen conditions at first
hand, says more than a million people
are facing death by starvation in Ar
menia and will perish unless America
aids.
Herself an eyewitness to the slaugh-
ter Of hundreds Of helpless women
and children by the Turks and vic
tim Of the Expectations, Miss Dake-
sian, an unusually pretty girl, says
there is untold suffering In Armenia
and Syria. She praises the efforts Of
the Near East Relief, formerly the
American Committee for Armenian and
Syrian Relief, to save as many of
these people as possible. At Erivan,
the capital Of the Armenian republic,
one hot meal is givOn out daily, and by
this relief alone the city's death rate
has been cut from a thousand daily to
an average Of twenty. At Alexandra
pol, where the refugees from Turkish
Armenia were driven by thousands, the
situation is appalling, Miss Dakesian
says. It is to avert these wholesale
deaths that Near East Relief is making
a nationwide appeal for funds.

Shakespeare Down to Date.

Justice Wayne, dramatic actress,
finds an explanation of the question as
to why Shakespearian plays seldom
win financial reward in what she
terms Shakespeare's inability to give
his productions catchy titles. She sug-
gests a repertoire of the bards plays
rechristened to meet popular demands
for stimulating titles. She suggests
How Could You, Juliet?" as more ap-
propriate than plain Romeo and
Juliet" She also would substitute
Call of the Flesh" for "The Merchant
Of Venice" "Strangled in Bed for
"Othello; 1.-THE Nutty Princess" for

Armenian Relief

Though 1 speak with the tongues
of men and of angels, and nave nos
charity, l am be come as sounding
brass or tinkling cymbal."
Thus spake St. Paul, thereby de-
f Mig the true principles OF Christ
ianity, in a nutshell.
The crusade for the relief OF the
Armenians will afford us a test OF
whether our Christianity is as noisy
as brass and as hollow as the cymbai.
At the luncheon given at the
Country Club on Monday by Mr..
VIM. Silver, Chairman for Hartford
county. he introduced Captain Geo.
byte, an American Red Cross officer,
who sperintended the rescue OF
thousands of Armenians and distTi-
buted the supplies of food furnished
by the United States and Great
Britain.
Captain Hyte graphically describ-
ed in minute detail the horrible con-
ditions existing in that devastated
corner of the world; the tiendIsh
cruelty of the Turk and the even
worse conduct of the Hun" the
Turkish ally. He called to the at
tention of the assembly that Armenia
was the first nation as a race to
adopt Christianity, that for more
than 1000 years they have been in
constant conflict with Moslemism,
holding their own against over
whelming odds, until today exhaust
ed and bleeding, their only salvation
lies in the response of other Christ
ian nations to their piteOus appeal.
Many people picture, the Armenian
as an unlearned, uncultured and slo-
Venly race, such as one sees in the
slums of cities or local canning
houses. On the contrary, Captain
Ilyte stated that the great majority
CT the men are as well educated and
refined as our people, and the Wo-
men of the very highest type, hand
some, cultivated, and of moral
purity seldom equalled. lie told OF
having seen these women and young
girls driven naked through the
streets, of masacres by the hundreds
of every well in a city of $4,000 peO-
pie sealed up, because ofthe putre-
faction of the bodies of the murder
ed with which they were filled. To-
day more than 100000 of the Ar
menian women are held in the
harems of the Turk in the worst sort
of slavery; high bred. we'll educated
girls, girls tom from colleges and
from cultured homes.
Many things, he said, he could re-
late, far worse, of the fiendish I'M
speakable fortunes inflicted on the
victims, but refrained on account OF
the mixed audience.
No one could listen to this recital
without being Intensely moved, and
we feel certain that when the drive,
or better Crusade" to rescue our
fellow Christians. is started in Feb,
liberal response will be made.
VIE believe our people will "gtve
until it hurts" for these people have
given in defense of our common
faith until millions of them are dead
or in slavery.
Captain Hyte referred to the
pending Senate Bill known as the
Williams Resolution Bill, which pro
vides for the formal recognition by
this country of Armenia, as an indie
pendent State, for the loan of money
for her rehabilitation, and for immedi-
ate relief to ths starving, and asked
everyone to write a personal letter
to our Senators and congressman re-
questing an immediate favorable
action. Now is the time 10 act for

TAB COLLAR IS VERY USEFUL
Decoration May Be Purchased Com
plete or TabbIng May Be Bought
by the Yard.

A tab collar is a good investment.
A tab collar fits any sort of neckline,
round or square, as it bends at the
1uncture of each tab and thus looks
when adjusted as If it has been made
expressly for the frock with which it
is worn.
Tab collars may be bought complete
in themselves, or the tabbing may be
bought by the yard, the amount vary
ing according to the size of the neck
line to be finished. 1t is attractive In
filet or Irish and, If possible, in the
real. 1t really never is good economy
to buy imitation lace for a collar. for
nowadays even the imitation is ex-
pensive and you are sure to tire of it
long before it is worn out. Enough
real lace tabbing to finish a neck will
surely prove a good investment.
Lace collars are not all white. Many
are tinted deep cream or ecru and
there are Irish and flet lace collars
in flame color or one of the nastur-
tium shades that are extremely smart.
Sometimes the smart woman has her
lace collar dyed to suit her fancy and
to go with the frock with which it Is
to be worn.
Drinks Bay Rum, Dies.
Philadelphia, Feb. 3.-Robert Smith,
sixty, died after drinking bay rum.
His body was found in his room at
263 North Sixth street. On the floor
were three empty bottles, bearing bay
rum labels. Physicians said death was
probably due to wood alcohol poison

RIVERSIDE FARM ONE OF
CoUNTRY'S SHOW PLACES
J. A. Shanstrom Property East Of
Coolidge Most Beautiful Coun-
try Home in This. Section.

One, if not the only real show
place" anywhere in this section,
outside of possibly the Model Dairy
farm north of town. Is what is
known as Riverside Farm, a little
more than a mile east of Coolidge.
j. A. Shanstrom, the owner, has
several hundred acres, but the home
place, with its prodigal shade.
beauty and comfort, is certainly a
delightful place to visit.
When Mr.. ShanStrOm located there
35 years ago there was not tree
or shrub in sight; it was just wild
prairie like the most of the coun-
try. Now, however, it is the picture
of comfort in every way. In addi-
tiOn to dense grove of cotton
wood, and other trees, about the
house, there are two small fish
ponds near the house fed by an ar
tesian well. Besides a number of
varieties of fish, including gold fish,
these ponds are further embellished
with water lilies of various colors,
all about the waters edge OF one
pond Many of the rich waxy bios
SONS of these lilly plants have
found their way to Holly and have
graced the homes Of various resi-
dents here.
Raymond ShanstrOm, one of the
sons of Mr.. and Mrs. J. A., has
taken special interest in flora cul-
ture and besides the water lilies
has been raising variety of
bulbs and Towering shrubs, which
have also been finding a ready
market in Holly. The flow from
the arteSian we'll also enables them
to raise unlimited garden vege-
tables.
Mr.. Shanstrom is just now in
stalling an individual electric light
plant which will add to both the
comfort and convenience of this
splendid place Raymond is plan
ming to raise flowers next season on
. much larger scale.

When Mr. Rhodes and family went
to California few weeks ago for
their summer vacation he had no
thought of making his home there
even though the large realty con-
cern with which he is to be identi-
fed had previously endeavored to
secure his services at a tempting
salary. During the outing, how
ever, the firm made the offer so
strong that he finally accepted.
At any rate Mr.. Rhodes says he
will not sell his farm interests in
this section as he considers them
prime investments. His family
may leave before he does in order
that the children may enter school
