DANINING RECORD

Knox County is acquiring a damn
ing record. The law enforcement
farce is becoming a stencil in the
nostrils of all right thinking men.
Criminals, including dirty boot
leggers, murderers, pistol toting bull
lies and sodden fools are running
Knox County with none to say them
nay. In the name of all that is holy
where is the spirit of the men who
led the way into Kentucky when it
was wilderness and a man needed
nerve? A murderer kills a man and
laughs at the officers of the law.
II by chance he comes before the
court the Commonwealth is limited
in its challenges as against the de-
fence. A hung jury resulting, time
and the sloppy sentiment Of a senti-
mental public, work for the defence
and, after dismissal. or a light SEN
tence, the murderer is turned loose
to kill some one else. Not long ago
a man from another county was
tried here who had been paroled and
who added a third notch to his gun
after his parole.
When lawyers refuse to handle
the defence of towards who shoot
down another in cold blood, and al
low the court to appoint their coun-
sci, and the lawyer strives for jus
tice to the dead as we'll as to the liv-
ing murderer, Knox County will soon
be free Of this damnable crime. Let
them know that when they commit
murder thew also commit suicide and
thss VII be found too fond of their
cowardly hides to risk dying.
Every man who assists in turning
loose one OF these fiends shares with
the murderer the guilt of bloodshed
and will be answerable to his Maker
for his share in the crime.
Widows and orphans are the fruit
of this boOtlegging and murder gang
and the Sheriff gets the blame. But
ultimately the Jurtes or Knox Coun-
ty are also to blame for not smash
ing those who perpetrate these
crimes.
Put the law back Of our Sheriff
and deputies. Assure them that the
murderer will get quick Justice with

and the women and children OF our
County will be able to sleep at night
without the shadow of fear as to

They attacked the Armenians, and the
shops were closed again, food became
scarce, and the supply trains were
robbed. The first three weeks of April
year ago, we were continually under
fire, and cut off from the outside world
by the Turkish nationalist armies.
They were fighting at Narash, only
twenty miles from our hospital. There
were 10000 Armenians killed or taken,
and of this number, 1000 were burned
to death in church.
"The horrors of the war on the
western front in Europe were bad
enough, but not one-tenth as bad as
what the people in the Near East had
to suffer- A whole nation was deport
ed, most of the people killed, and the
rest driven to the Arabian desert.
During the deportation, some of
them were so maddened with thirst
| that when they got to the Euphrates
river, filled with dead, they pushed
these bodies aside, in order to drink
the water
ut was not unusual to see bodies OF
women and children in the streets,
eaten by dogs. The little children are
nothing but bones, and their eyes are
nothing but mass of flies. Most OF
them are naked, and some of the
women haven't scrap of clothing.
Their fear of the Turk is something
pathetic, but they are not towards
Every day the Turk made an armistice,
and every night he broke it.
II want all Americans to know this
that the Armenians are worth while,
and that they believe in us. They
need us to, help them rebuild their
country. They don't want charity, but
they want to buy from us the neces.
stiles of life, and the means to open
up their industries"

that section of the country which was

them, and it was our job to dig them

FIRST AID TRAINING
TO men and WOMEN
American Red Cross Is Teaching
Hundreds OF Thousands Life
Saving Methods.

The purpose Of instruction in First
Aid to the injured offered by the Amer
lean Red Cross is to train men and
women to administer First Aid treat
ment promptly and intelligently when
emergencies demand 1t. First Aid
treatment is not intended to take the
place of a physicians service. A sur
geon should always be summoned as
a precautionary measure where there
is an injury Of any consequence, but
when one cannot be secured few min
uteS' delay may mean fatality. In
such a case a person trained In First
Aid is invaluable not only to the In
dividual, but through him to the COM
munity in which he lives.
There Is perhaps mo way Of ascer-
tanning the number of deaths or seri-
Gus disablements which result from
lack of proper safeguards or prompt
emergency treatment. I: IS safe to as
sert they number thousands daily.
There can be no doubt that the appli-
cation Of First Aid methods to each
case would UNNECESSARILY tighten the
country's toll of suffering and death.
The dissemination of First Aid train
ing and information has already pro-
duced a farreaching and beneficial in
fiuence In the prevention of accidents
on railroads, in mines and In great in
dustrial concerns.
The benefit of widespread knowl-
edge of First Aid in the event Of
great disaster, such as train wreck,
an explosion, an earthquake, etc, is
obvious. Laymen who have had First
Aid training can render efficient as
sistance. Many lives may depend upon
such emergency care.
Red Cross First Aid work includes
az the formation and conduct, through
Red Cross chapters, of classes for In
structiOn In accident prevention and
First Aid to the injured among men
and women in all communities and in
every industry (2) the Introduction of
courses Of instruction IN high schools
and colleges.
The Red Cross is prepared to supply
First Aid books and equipment, at rea-
sonable prices.
Every person in this country able to
do so should, In his own interest, re-
ceive Red Cross First Aid instructions

ARMENiANS NEED
HEAVY CLOTHING

Providing clothing for the tens oil

ages is no small task confronting Near
East Relief Native cloth is often un
obtainable and it becomes necessary
to spin, dye and weave cloth from raw
materials. Large shipments of cloth
have been sent from America, and
this, with the native cloth, is fash.
toned into clothing in the tailoring and
sewing shops established by the indus.
trial department.
But the clothing thus made is not
sufficient to clothe all the wards of the
Near East Relief committee. There is
an almost constant appeal from the re.
turned refugees as well as from those
still in exile, for old clothing. 1t is
not alone for warmth that clothing is
imperative. Outbreaks of typhus and
other diseases communicated by yer
min are lessened when there is dis
tribution of clothing and old clothing
is burned.
Two hundred and fifty thousand gar
ments of used and worn clothing were
shipped from the United States las,
year. The need for more clothing this
year is imperative lest hundreds more
die OF cold and disease.
