Senator Reed, democrat, Of Mo,

Girl Refugee to Work for Lepers

A LEPER island has no terrors for
one who has experienced the
Turkish atrocities in Armenia, accord
ing to Miss Helen Chobanfan, young
Armenian Salvation Army worker who
is in New York on her way to Java,
where she will work among the lepers
with other Salvationists.
Miss Chobanian was born in Dia-
bellir, where she lived until she was
five years old. Then the atrocities of
1895 took place. Her father and
mother were killed before the little
girls eyes. She escaped with her
brother over the rooftops to another
street, where they hid from the Turks
for time, and were ultimately taken
to Paris by Mrs. oth-Hellberg, Sis
ter of Miss Evangeline Booth, Com
mander of the Salvation Army in the
United States.
Miss ChObanian's assignment to
the leper work is for an indefinite
period. Java is one of 63 countries
and colonies wherein the Salvationists

BAPTIST VICTORY
CONVENTION news
Rev. o. o. Green Reports Result
Of Report Of Kentucky At
Washington Meeting

Rev, O. o. Green, who with
Mrs. Green, are in Washington
this week attending the Victory
convention of the Baptist
churches, writes to friends in
Richmond, that the big meeting
opened amid great enthusiasm,
and one of the best features was
the report of the successful
gathering iii OF the mammoth
funds, and Of the important part
played in this work by his home
state and county. The reports
will show Kentucky among the
foremost, and also that its quota
was oversubscribed in many To-
| callties not only this, but that
the Richmond and Madison coun-
ty churches have not only pledged
their quotas, but are providing
the funds i'll advance. The Rich
mond church has more than So
iOOO paid up to date of it's pledged
quota, and several thousand dol
lars ahead Of the game in the way
OF the collection of future funds.
The report Mr. Green will be
able to bring back will be of more
than passing interest, since the
donors will have the qualification
of knowing that the effects of
their work is felt not only here
but abroad. The $z5,OO0,OO0
mark has been passed, and, &C
cording to reports from the con-
vention, it will not be surprising
if the $l00,O00,O0O mark is not
subscribed and perhaps over
reached before or at the close of
the meeting. The delegates from
the various states report the
same degree Of enthusiasm and
interest everywhere, and are
firmly of the belief that the fund
created Will be far greater than
anything i'll the way of a venture
of this nature ever before at
tempted.
The convention will close next
Monday. There will be final"
tconference of the numerous dele
igates before their departure for
home where they will make their
reports, to discuss. their ''home
conditions.' This will bring
about closer relationship among
not only the delegates but those
who are in attendance of their
own accord, ilnbued simply by the
intense interest which is. being
manifest SO thoroughly. The next
years drive is expected to be
even greater than the opening
year, since the workers have
Isystematized their task in such a
manner that it will not only be
easier, but more people will be
reached III various localities.

TWO SCHOOLS WILL
Be CONSOLIDATED
Important Change For Pilot
Knob And Narrow Gap To
Be Brought About

Among the important changes in
the schools of Madison county during
the present year will be consolidation
of the Berea and Big Hill schools OF
the districts known as Narrow Gap
and Pilot Knob for which plans will be
formulated during the coming week.
The change in this section Of the
county will not stop here for the
members of the county board arc
planning a number of new departures
that will attract widespread attention.
One of them will be the big demon
Sration grounds to be established near
Big Hill. The members Of the board
are contemplating the purchase of ter
acres Of ground to be devoted to
demonstration purposes. This will be
first one of this character to be pro-
vided for this part Of the country and
perhaps the first one of it's kind pro-
cured and maintained by a county
board. The establishment of this
demonstration ground will be effected
this year and it is the intention OF
the board to begin the work soon.
There will be a meeting Of the mem
bers of the next week at which plans
will be made, during their stay in
Richmond, where they will meet with
Superintendent Edwards, for the ac-
ccptancc of plans of already outlined
by the ones interested in Berea and
vicinity. The students will be given
the benefited of the innovation and l.
is believed that this manner Of in
struction and demonstration work will
be taken up later elsewhere, since it's
feasibility is said to be assured. The
consolidation of the Marrow Gap and
Pilot Knob districts will render it one
of the most impol tant country dis
tricts in Madison, county, The, atr
