Lie Dying From Hunger.
When the youngsters are brought in
from the city they are placed in
room to await medical inspection. and
are set down like sacks of inanimate
matter so that they settle on the
benches or wide window lodges or lean
against the wall without moving.
Some of them dying from hunger have
limbs like brown bones covered with
shrlvelled skin, and their stomachs are
puffed up like balloons. There are
white pouches beneath the eyes. This
is deaths own message to the children
Of the famine.
A little fellow beside the door looked
up with eyes blinded: one on the
window ledge seems already dead. his

Instead of sacrificing present nation

efforts of the negro extremists to ally
themselves with the Russian Bolshevki.
