American nurses and eight native as- sistant nurses. We have charge of over 5000 orphans. Besides all the relief given in other ways. It is very big work and could be much greater.
 Upon arrival here about six months ago, we opened an eye clinic in the main office building, and began train ing young women to assist in the work of treating the various forms of tra- chome-conju etc. Four young women are now conducting this clinic where we treat from 450 to 500 persons daily. Later we went to Zinjerdere. village five miles south, where we have an orphanage and examined the chil- dren. Two young women We trained are now conducting a clinic there treat ing daily about $50. Finding that a Greek orphanage was badly infected also, we established our work there, and two more girls are treating around 300 a day
 Then We went to Caesarea orphan age, and have two eye clinics running there, about 300 per day. In addition there is the big clinic where school children are treated in the forenoon and the public in the afternoon, num- bering around 500 per day.

We are able to do .. lot of good here in Talas, but we are handicapped very materially because of the lack of funds. our appropriation is not nearly enough to cover the expenses we ought to incur-and many things we want to do and need to do, we cant because we haven't the money-so you see It 1t the most important.
 We are living under an awful strain. Last week just at nightfalR six Amer jeans from Hadjin came riding into our compound, escaping barely with their lives, no clothes nor belongings but what they had on. and a little bundle or saddle bag. They had been riding on horseback for three days, had been under siege for months in Hadjin. Their story is hair-raising.
 We never know what the day will bring forth, but all are calmly going about their duties-caring for the un- fortunates in their charge, as though the world were at peace everywhere The Armenian people here are won derful

 But this know-that the American people are doing a great work with their money and other supplies in this grief stricken land, and please advise any who may desire to send us private remittances as several have done and as some wish to do from the inquiries which we have received as to the best method to forward such funds, that 1t saves exchange and is the least trouble and inconvenience to all con- cerned if all such money is sent to the Near East Relief, One Madison avenue, New York City, and they will see to it that it is forwarded to us at our ad- dress. no matter where we are in Turkey

BRITISH CONCESSION
 RECEIVED WITH CONTEMPT

HELSINGFORS, Dec. 25.-The deci- sion of the British government to open trade relations with Russia is greeted by the bolshevist press with articles which breathe at the same time spirit of triumph and contempt. The British press is represented as unanimously welcoming the opening of trade with Russia and urging the necessity of not allowing other countries-notably Ger many and America-to secure the Rus sian market Papers are also repre- sented as anticipating the arrival o1 abundant supplies from Russia.
 People in close touch with Ldoyo George, declares the Krasnaia Gazeta- say that if the treaty is not made soon it will be too late, and that 1t Is plty msore concessions have not been made to the bolshevist point of view. SlI Robert Horne is quoted as saying that Great Britain simply cannot carry on without materials from Russia.

GOVERNMENTS WASTE OF
PAPER.

The United States is at once the
worlds greatest publisher and the
most wasteful. It's printing Office at
Washington employees $500 persons.
Last year over 61,000,000 Of govern
ment publications were issued, many
and they were mailed to million
people, whose names appear on the
governments free list. According
to Senator Fletcher, of Florida, mil
lions of these publications year
have to be disposed of as junk, with
out being unwrapped or read. A
few years ago, 100000 accumu-
lated publications. many bound in
the best grades of cloth or leather,
weighing $50 tons. were sold at
cents a pound and last year 2,G23,-
500 publications were condemned
and sold almost for a song. A COM
mittee is trying to invent some way
to stop the waste, but it will more
than probably pass it up. Congress
men, generally, are opposed to cur
ttailing anything that might in the
slightest way add to their chances OF
holding on to their jobs. To this
great waste of good white paper is
largely attributed the shortage and
high prices Of the product that il
now worrying publishers. The man
or set of men who can accomplish 9
much-needed reform will be public
benefactors and it is hoped that they
will materialize.
