Danish Missionary Tells Of Massares
She Witnessed at Harpoot.

massacre innocent Armenians, and q
few details Of their horrible brutality, were
vvidly outlined before the members of
the State Grange at It's meeting at Dover
last night. by Miss Marie jacobson, q
Danish citizen, who for thirteen years
represented the Danish Missionary Board
At Harpoot, Asia Minor.
Miss jacobson has been in this coun-
try for few weeks and In the spring Will
return 10 the Near East TO again take up
mission work Just now, she Is visualizing
for the benefit of Americans, who have
little conception Of the Turkish horrors
perperTated on the Artnenians, some of
the things that have confronted this
persetuted Christian people.
What Miss jacobson related occurred
in Harpoot The first massacre she witness
ed was in the spring al 1915. The popula-
ton of the countryside at that time con-
sisted OF about 10000 people. She told
Of the terrible tragedy Of seeing men and
hovs killed and the women and girls
driven into exile, and of the starvation
If the little children and aged men and
women.
During the early days all Of the people,
including Americans were driven from
Harpoot, but she remained. Miss Yacob-
son told OF her efforts to rescue as many OF
the older persons and sick. and how she
tried - provide food for ] 400 children.
Referring to the part which this country
is expected to play. she said, America
must truly be the saviour Of Armenia
Some mighty hand must staythe powers Of
evil in that land The ArInenians who have
so long looked TO America for help and
succor, must not be denied the assistance
which this great land can give them"
Yesterday afternoon, Miss jacobson
addressed the members OF the Missionary
Society at the Methodist church AT

Robert Fulton produced his boat, The

The first hundred years of shipping on
the Delaware river from the time oil
Fitch, whose sad story appears laterin TINS
article, until the Wilson Line came into
existence forms the most interesting
chapter in the history of maritime develop

steamboat on civilization cannot be esti-
mated We only know that the great
commercial progress made during the last
century would not have been otherwise
possible.

Peter Bloomsbury, Captain Horace wilson

THE Alto CAMP GRnIINn

TO date Hood River has made only
nominal expenditure on a free auto
camp grounds for touring motorists.
The Commercial club and fire depart
ment performed a meritorious service
in contributing the purchase price of
the three acres utilized for a park.
The acreage has already proven too
small. II is likely that larger tract
will be necessary next year. An invest
Inent in such a property will be profit
able. All over the Northwest commun-
tiles are realizing the value Of automo-
bile camp grounds.
The worth Of such camps in the In
land Empire is indicated by the record
of the Spokane camp in the season Just
closing. A total If 4402 cars carrying
more than IL, 900 persons used the camp
for an average stay Of sc hours. Ac-
tual figures are not, Of course, avsila-
bic as to the sums expended by these
visitors at hotels, garages and business
houses. but the amount is known 10 be
large. A number Of Inland Empire
towns installed free tourist camps this
season and the list will be extended
next spring.
