opened upon scenes of horror and later
through them saw much Of the suffer-
ings of the people OF Armenia.
The family are making their tour I'M
der auspices of the Near East Relief,
the big organization which has saved
hundreds Of thousands of the people
in that part of The WCrld from death
by hunger and cold and is soon to open
nation wide campaign for funds to
complete the work of saving the sur
vivOrS, more than a half million of
whom must perish unless aid comes to
them soon. America is their only hope.
General AZgapetian served calamity
in the Russian armies in the Caucasus
against the Turks. His wife. who &C.
cOmpanied him to the front, did noble
work for the wounded and sick. and
1t was while in this service that her
baby was born in hospital tent during
a battle. An army blanket swung from
two poles in one corner Of the tent was
the baby's crib during the rest of that
terrible winter campaign. With the
collapse of the Russian armies after
the BOlsheviSt revolution the Azgape-
tians returned to Armenia for Il brief
spell and did their best 10 alleviate
the suffering they found on every hand.

In the Caucasus, Armenia. Syria,
Turkey and Persia are more than 25O.-
900 orphans, helpless little victims Of
war, massacre and deportation, and
for the great majority the only bar be-
tween them and absolute starvation
is bowl of hot bean soup every day.
This soup is supplied by the Near East
Relief now making an appeal to
the American people for sufficient
funds to increase this dole and to pro,
vide these suffering little ones with
clothing and give them an education
that will help them to become self sup.

than 100000 in Western Asia will
