Now About the Orphans
So much for the great relief pledged
by the farmers of Kansas at their
meeting in Salina March 8
Now for the citizens of the >clties
The urbanites have their work
mapped out to relieve this terrible
suffering. There are, at this time,
10, 900 orphans being cared for in the
AL orphanages. hospitals. clinics ana aha
stricken districts. Kansas has been
assigned 2,545 of these unfortunate
children. The care of 702. of these
orphans already has been provided for
by the Kansas Near East committee.
It's costs $50 year or only IS month
to care for each orphan.
Did Kansas ever dodge ouch re-
|sponsibility?
A Movement of Merit-Biby.
aIt is a case OF America being COM
ne1Ied to feed so long as Armenia is
compelled to bleed" William A. Biby,
state director, said today. "Never was
I more enthused over a movement
than this one. 1t is a work that gives
a man the satisfaction of knowing that
he is saving human lives.
ST am not afraid of Kansas doing
her share. Kansas never has avoided
a responsibility of this nature. The
Nntire country is organized toward this
one effort of saving the near east.
Responses from every section of the
country indicate enthusiasm and in
terest and compassion. The farmers
of the state have pledged 100 carloads
OF wheat and corn. The elevators will
act as receiving stations for the grain
without expense. Doctor Estey, state
chairman; Phil Eastman, secretary; e.
F. Strain, transportation director. and
S. E. Cobb, treasurer, are men of ex-
perience and energy. Theses wonder
full farmer organizations have under
taken a marvellous task and they will
carry it thru.
Saline county is the first fully or
gained county in the state. Frank
Hageman, president of a Salina bank,
is chairman. His wife has adopted
into her home an Armenian orphan.
"It is a work of tremendous reSpon-
sibilfties and tremendous results. 1t is
the call to Kansas"

GERMANS STILL

Berlin, Nov 23-Why Germany was beaten is again a topic of acrim- onious newspaper controversy now that the third anniversary of the col lapse of the German war machine is at hand.
 Opinions are as violently expressed and as widely divergent as ever. An

CHILDREN SHOULD BE
 DEVELOPED SLOWLY

Chicago, Nov. 23.-"Don't tell your child to be a little man or a little lady,"
 Mrs. Mariette Johnson gave this ad- vice at a meeting for mothers held by the Chicago League of Wome0 Voters.
 'tWe have enough little men and little Iadies-I mean spiritually and socially, not physically she declared. He's a little boy and she's a little girl, and each is as different from an adult as a green persimmon from a. ripe one.
 NO mother should be proud of tho precocious child, because a child who is overdeveloped in one sense is un-s der-developed in another. The hope of the race is in prolonging child-5 hood"
 Too many parents, according to, Mrs. Johnson, "have their children in college before they're a year old"
 Parents have no right to determine what the child is going to be, she said. They should not try to make musi-s clans or lawyers or anything else out, of children. Their concern. in the opinion of Mrs. Johnson, is with the present, not with the future of the child The kiddies should be per- rnitted to gradually develop them- selves.

TONNES WINS FIGHT FOR LIFE WITH
 CANCER

Pittsburg, Nov. 23-His greatest match, with a dreaded malady as his opponent, has resulted in a victory for William C. Fownes, Jr., former anna American golf team which invaded Great Britain. It was a grim en- counter he waged, but the stakes were big, and with the same indomitable fighting spirit which characterizes his play in golf he battled against the dreaded cancer. The result of the en- counter was to determine if he would live or die. He has scored a big tri- umph and is assured by his physicians that all danger has passed.
 The news brought rejoicing in the ranks of local golfers. A gloom had pervaded here since it became known cancer. In fact, so deep was the feeling that all of the Pittsburghers entered in the national championship tournament at St. Louis withdrew. ress in St. Louis MT. Fownes was en- gagged in his greatest of all tourna- mentS, the one in which his life was at stake. He was at Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore, receiving treat ment from eminent cancer specialists. The outcome of the operation was watched with keen interest. They were more concerned about Flownes'
 fight against the grim reaper than they were in the new champion.
 The cancer developed while Fownes was returning from England, where he played in the British cham pionship tournament at Hoylake. It appeared on his right ear and was discovered while he was aboard ship. For a time the cancer would not respond to treat ment some of the specialists enter taining but little hope for his recov- cry.
 A novel operation was decided upon at John Hopkins Hospital.
 The infected part of the ear was cut nd S1x in led if loperation was highly successful, and the physicians say that all danger is over and he will be in good health gain within a few months.

POSSIBILITIES OF LIMITING USE OF POISON GAS DEPENDS ON
 SCIENCE, SAYS GEN. MAURICE
Dangers to Which Development of Science Will Expose Humanity Vividly Realized By
 Military Experts.

London, Nov. 23 - Major Lefe- bure's study of chemical warfare, in his book The Riddle of the Rhine," has presented to us in an authorita- tive form the dangers to which the unrestricted development of science directed to destruction will expose hu- manity.
 Since the subject of the use of poison gas in warfare was mooted at this years meeting of the British As sociation there has been much discus sion in the press, and I find that number of scientists have declared that the use of poison gas is in their opinion not inhuman, or at least not more fnhuman than the employment explosive shell or other forms of de- struction.
 I desire to combat this view be- cause, as I have stated previously, believe that the possibility of limiting the use of poison in war depends largely upon the scientists. My opinion has now been endorsed by the As sembly of the League of Nations, which has adopted the report of it's Third Commission on the reduction of armaments. That report contains the following passage:
 'sIt has been stated that inventions have been made or perfected since the war whereby wholesale deStruc- ton of the civil population would be possible by the dropping of poison bombs and like from the air, nor is there any reason to suppose that the limits Of invention in these HendlSh seems possible to the committee to be devices have been reached. And if, as arguable, the employment of these weapons will be rendered impracti- cable if there were no secrecy about them, the possibility of obtaining com p1ete publicity for scientific research in this domain is certainly worth ex- ploring.
 Appeal to Science.
 Accordingly the committee recOm- Inends that the Temporary sized Com- mission should be asked to consider whether an appeal should not be ad- dressed to all scientific men in the world, urging them to publish to the world the results of their discoveries of them, having become public prop in such matters, so that the knowledge of them having become public prop erty, their use as weapons of war by any single State may be rendered inn probable"
 Clearly, if any number of scientists, do not consider the use of poison gas inhuman this proposal of the League of Nations will not be of much value. But there is no doubt that the use of gas by the Germans in the second bat

SISTERS, BOTH OVER 100, ARE
 STILL ACTIVE

Carthage, N. C.. Nov. 23-To live a century is considered out of the or dinary, but when two members of the same family, living in the same house, past the tooth milestone it is more than out of the ordinary.
 Out in Bensalem Township, of Moore county, IT miles from Car thage, is the home of the McDufhe sisters, Misses Anna and Christina Miss Anna is 104 years of age and Miss Christina is 102 years according to authentic records. They live with their nephew, John McDuffle, within one mile of the spot where they were born. And they have never lived out side of Bensalem Township.
 The sisters are not ashamed of their ages, and they are remarkably active, getting about the little home and yard without assistance. They can see well, with the aid of their glasses, and have remarkable memories. It is very interesting to hear of the days when there were no mails and no lamps, no trains and other modern conveniences. Neither sister can hear well.
 Both Miss Anna and Miss Christina voted last November, and when Presi- dent Harding was recently notified that they cast their votes for him he sent thtm the following letter:
