100 Per Cent Relief.
"The aim of the organization Is 100
per cent relief, the relief which puts
those aided on self-supporting basis,
which instills in them confidence for
the future, places In their hands the
means with which to begin life anew,
and in their hearts the courage to &c
on. Work, that is the prescription
subscribed and provided by these loyal
men and women who have Journeyed
into perllous places for the sake Of
their fellow men; to make these peo-
pie independent for the future, to en-
courage the fickering fire of national
pride.
"There are 50 POI workers employed
In the Industrial establishments of the
Near East Relief, where wool is fur
nished for the women to spin and
weave, and all the girls who are strong
enough are washing wool, sewing beds,
grinding and sitting wheat, tailoring
and learning to make lace. The big
problem is to make these women indie,
pendent.
about 500 American men and wo.
men, Near East Relief workers, are
now in the field, including 36 eminent
physicians and surgeons, 78 nurses,
mechanics, Is industrial experts, 16
agriculturists, IA bacteriologists, 1877
relief workers, 25 supply and trans
port workers, 10 teachers, 20 admins
traitors, "a secretaries, engineers and
45 army officers.
Where Money Goes.
"Funds for relief purposes are dis
trfbuted in two ways: First, the vari-
GUS relief centers are authorized by
the Executive Committee to draw sight
drafts on New York for specific
amounts each month; second, by sup
plies purchased in America, the major
portion of which are shipped to the
committee warehouses at Derindje,
and the remainder either to Beyrouth
or Batoum.
'aThe relief is rapidly expanding and
meeting the situation, but the future
depends on the continuation OF Ameri-
can support"
According to Mr.. Hemphill, the need
for American help to see the destitute
peoples of the Near East through the
crisis of present conditions is greater
now than ever before on account Of the
uncertainty as to the future, the trucu-
lence of the Turkish government and,
the danger Of bolshevism from Russia,
which threatens to engulf the whole Of
Armenia.
Who Direct the Work.
Mr.. Hemphill is the Chairman Of the
Executive Committee Of the Near East
Relief. Other members are DR.. James
I. Barton. Secretary Of the Foreign
Department Of the American Board

sions, Edwin NJ Buikley, banker, Of

Slick Defended, Blamed
by Members at Board OF
Works Meeting Thursday

One written complaint was received
by the board of works Thursday and
several verbal ones were reported in
regard to the city's trash and garbage.
The written complaint was referred to
the city engineer, who was instructed
to notify F. E. Slick, trash and gar
bage contractor, for action.
The members of the board were de-
vided in their opinion of the trash and
garbage contract, Harry Gilbert, prest
dent, saying that Slick was progress
sing favorably. Gilbert said that he
upon investigation early Tuesday
morning, found that the contractor
had six trucks and several teams
cleaning up the alleys.
John Peltz said that he was getting
tired of being stopped on the street
and being harrassed because of the
conditions of the alleys, and that h,
cid not think Slick was removing en-
ough ashes to keep up with each day
accumulation.
Peltz suggested that the city SHOULD
take some action, such as putting
teams on the job, under supervision o
the street commissioner, and charg'
the bill to Slick. No action wa
taken.

1t was not enough for Allan Dwan

Dwan.
How the people lived came in for
its full share of Dwansque scrutiny.
Did the people live on fatty foods l?
Were they athletic? Did they have
to fight hard for an existence, or was
nature bountiful? Many similar ques-

shown in the menagerie Is excellent
as far as it goes, but is not SO exten-

true of the magnificent ''blood-sweat-

unsurpassed in any collection in the

are of the most meritorious and thrill

superb, and their riders daring ana

all of the features are first-class and
enlists the interest and attention OF
the crowd to the utmost degree. The

The Sells-Floto show is a big aggrega-

people came from everywhere within
q radius OF so miles or more to enjoy
the circus performances. Florence
and the coal camps OF the county were
especially well represented at the eve
ming performance. Hundreds Of 9TH
err came from the extreme west por.

thing like 1900 people passed
through the main entrance OF the big
