Church Bells In Asia Minor,

Church bells are an abOminatlon to
MOslems. In 1917, the Turks, hearing
that the Germans had melted their
church bells and made them into bul-
let's, decided they would melt the
church bells of Asia Minor. In order
to add insult to injury some of the bell
metal was made into stirrups, to show
the Armenian Christians that they
were both in fact and figure under the
feet of their MOhammedan Overlords,
But the Armenians of Marash have col
lected the money for good church
bell, TO be purchased In America, and
are looking forward TO q time when
they can worship God in peace.
