New York, Feb. 5.-Little chil- dren so hungry that they swept flour dust off the wharves and street and ate it along with the dirt and debris it contained
 Soap so scarce that an English na- val officed in Lihau traded two cases for a iuxuriously mahogany finished private yacht
 These are two vivid pictures of conditions in Poland, Lithuania and Baltic Russia, as seen by Lieut.. Lu cien E. Messenger, who had charge until recently of children's relief work in Lithunia for the American Relief Administration, after seeing active service in France.
 " Ihad family of 10000 children and they used to call me Daddy Messinger'," the lieutenant wrote in letter to Colonel Harry Cutler, Providence, his old commanding of ficer and member of the executive committee of the American Jewish Relief Committee, which has raised almost $12,000,000 in the United States this year for relief work in Eastern Europe.
 q saw a number of children una ble to walk or even crawl because of malntitrition, when we arrived. Ten days after receiving our American cocoa, milk, rice, etc., these same children walked in body to our door. with smiles on their faces, to thank us for the happiness we had brought hem.
 Morale Higher.
 "On several occasions the presi- dent and other officials of the Lii thunian government took great pains to tell me that not only has American relief increased the mo- rale of the adult population ines. timably, but that children are now seen with smiles on their faces where there had been nothing but expressions of misery and pain fol the previous five years"
 1 It was necessary to maintain arm ed military guards around the wharves and railroad stations wher American flour was loaded and un loaded to keep the crazed people away from the white flour whicf they hadn't seen for five years, ac cording to Lieut.. Messinger. "A certain amount of dust settled on the wharves and ground when the flour was unloaded," he continued "Children would rush up with small brushes made out of twigs, carefully sweep this flour into their hands and eat it with the dirt and debris | it contained. The men, unloading would purposely cut the sacks ane eat raw flour.
 "As each barge was unloaded, yo, Sr,N,~1I thncn Anvnr ny their knees, scraping up with theil hands the small amount of flour lief on the floors and putting it int, make bread"
 The greatest need of these peopl, is soap and cloth that they can mak, opinion.

THANKSGIVING DAY
President Calls on America to
Give Thanks on That
Day.

Washington President Wilson
issued his Thanksgiving proclamation
Friday saying that "in plenty. secur-
ity and peace, our Nirtuous and self
reliant people face the future" and
setting aside Thursday, November rs,
for the usual observanceS. The text
follows:
"The season approaches when it be"
hooves us to turn from the distractions
and prescriptions of our daily life,
that we may contemplate the mercies
which have been vouchsafed to us, and
render heartfelt and unfeigned thanks
unto God for his manifold goodness.
This is an old observance of the
American people, deeply imprinted in
our thoughts and habits. The burdens
and the stresses of life have their own
insistence.
1--WE have abundant cause for
thanksgiving. The LESSONS Of the war
are rapidly healing. The great army
of free men which America sent to the
defense of liberty, returning to the
grateful embrace of the nation, has
resumed the useful pursuits OF peace,
as simply and as promptly as it rushed
to arms in obedience to the country
call. The equal justice of our laws
has received steady vindication in the
support of law abiding people against
various and sinister attacks, which
have reflected only the baser agita,
tons Of war now happily passing
"In plenty, security and peace, our
virtuous and self reliant people face
the future, its duties and its 0ppOrtuni'
ties. May we have vision to discern
our duties; the strength, both of hand
and resolve, to discharge them, and
the sOundness of heart to realize that
the truest opportunities are those serv-
ices.
In spirit then of devotion and stew
ardship we would give thanks in our
hearts and dedicate ourselves to the
service of Gods merciful and loving
purpose to His children.
Wherefore l., Woodrow Wilson,
president of the United States OF
America, do hereby designate Thurs
day, the 25th day Of November next,
as a day of Thanksgiving and prayer
and l call upon my countrymen to
cease from their ordinary tasks and
avocations on that day, giving it up to
the remembrance of God and His bless,
ings, and their dutiful and grateful &C.
knowledgement."
