ALL WANTED THE GREEN HAT
Refugee Children Passed 1t All Along
the Line, Each Wearing 1t for
One Day.

New YOrk-The community hat is
very much of a reality in the refugee
colony at Ismidt, Asia Minor, where
approximately 10000 Greeks and Ar
menians, made homeless by the mill
tary operations of the Turkish Nation
alists and Greeks, have sought shelter,
says a worker of the Near East Relief
who has just arrived in New York.
"a large fraction of the refugees are
children, with the normal fondness of
the child for bright colors, which can
not be satisfied under the conditions
that they live in this worker de-
clares. when bundle of old clothes
from America arrived one day there
was great rejoicing among the unfor-
tunate waits who come daily to the
Near East Relief clinic for treatment
for all sorts of maladies. This par
ticular bundle contained hats, all of
which were passed out, with the ex-
ception of large green picture hat,
the creation of some fashionable mil
liner back in the States.
"There came wall from one tiny
tot at the end of the line, who had
failed to receive her hat; so the green
one was given to her, to the great
envy of her companions.
"Clinjc hour in the refugee camp is
the event of the day for the children.
On the following day, the green hat
was in line, but the face under it did
not seem the same as the day before.
On the third and fourth day the same
thing occurred Finally the reason
was discovered The hat was being
passed from child to child, each being
given opportunity to wear the coveted
colors for one day. 1t never failed to
make the wearer happy and always,
on the pathetic, thin face underneath
it. was a joyful smile. The fact that
the hat rarely fitted the shaved head
that sported it made no difference, it
was the bright color rather than the
design that made it so much desired"
The Armenians don't need many
green hats, but they do need practical
hats and warm clothing. Will you not
gather up your cast-offs and send them
TO the Near East Relief warehouse at
$40 West 39th Street, New York Self
addressed tags will be mailed on re-
quest made to James W. Thompson,
state director, 229 Plankinton Arcade,
Milwaukee.

DEATH RATE is DECREASED
Arrival of Clothes in Refugee Camp
Saves Many Lives of Armenians
i'm Dire Need.

New York-"I don't see how the Ar
menians manage to i've" declares
Colin Clemens, actor and playwright,
but more recently a worker for the
Near East Relief, who has Just re-
turned after service of several years
in the stricken regions of the Leyant.
"At Urfa," he told relief officials at
National Headquarters here, II saw
little children walking around in the
snow, barefoot. Their entire bodies
were almost completely naked. The
few tattered old rags that were
wrapped about them were practically
the only protection against the cold
winter weather Yet most of them
have managed to survive, though the
death rate was very high, far higher
than it would have been had there
been more old clothes from America
to distribute among them and among
the adults, who were just as badly off.
eve frequently found overseas that
clothing was far better than medicine
in preventing the spread of disease. 1t
happened constantly that when clothes
were received in a refugee camp that
there would be an immediate drop in
the death rate. To see the gratitude
on the face of some poor, half frozen
creature when a warm garment, cast
off in America but invaluable in the
Near East, was given. out, was pa
thetic."
Prior to his enlisting in the army
during the war, Clemens was a mem
Der of the Portmanteau Players, who
toured the country producing plays by
Lord Dunsany. He has written sever
al plays.
Reports from other areas, according
to relief officials, confirm Clemens
statements. A worker from the dis
trict about Ismidt, where the military
operations of the Greeks and the Turk
ish Nationalist have thrown approx
mately twenty thousand refugees, re-
ported that in one village all of the
very young children had died because
of exposure. In the same village, this
worker reported, where the death rate
was very high even among the adults,
there was very marked decrease in
illness after old clothes from the
United States had been received.
With little effort from each person,
the United States could clothe every
inhabitant Of Armenia and clothe him
well. If every American would send
just one garment, there would be an
over-supply. In Wisconsin, James w.
Thompson, state director of Near East
Relief, urges that everyone in the
state do his or her bit to help the
tragic situation overseas. Bundles of
clothing may be sent to the National
Headquarters warehouse, $40 West
Both Street, New York, and these will
be sent Immediately overseas. Tags
will be sent, on request, from the Mil
waukee headquarters, 229 Plankinton
Arcade. These are addressed and
ready for mailing.

Marooned
By HAZEL SMITH
(@. 1921. western Newspaper linton !

(9. 1921, Western Newspaper Unionl
Dear Hazel:
Il am only able to send you a few
lines this time because the weekly
steamer is at the little dock here and
is just getting ready to return to Port
land. | arrived here yesterday 10 ioin
the other girls, and what do YOU
think? Nobody was here but myself.
So | am actually marooned upon this
tiny island, where we had such a mer-
ry party last year. A letter from
Grace has just followed me here and
learn that the island has been bought
by man, and the club will have TO
ind another camping ground. The
creature wrote to all the rest of the
club individually but left me out. Ap-
parently | am too Insignificant a mem
Der to be noticed. The man is Harry
Richmond about whom I wrote you
last year He was very rude to me
when | told him that our club did not
allow men on the island, and he has
apparently taken his revenge by buy
ing it over our heads. Ever yours
Adelaide"

"Dear Hazel:

Dear Hazel:
yesterday afternoon Mr.. Richmond
came back with justice of the peace
who inquired whether | wanted to
take out a warrant. | said l did, and
the justice said he would take Mr..
Richmond back as a prisoner in his
own motorboat, but that would have
to stay here because the boat was
private property. Then they both
went away, and although Mr.. Brown
the justice-looked SO stern, | believe
he is q friend of Mr.. Richmond. | ate
the supplies. Affectionately,
Adelaide.
"P. S. I suppose / had better tell
you what happened last night. l re-
solved to appeal to Mr.. Richmond's
better instincts and went to his cabin.
He was sitting outside, looking deep
ly detected. l told him that our club
was vowed to celibacy, but that
would withdraw the warrant, and he
answered that Mr.. Brown would be
back from the mainland in an hour or
er, and he was glad Twas forgiving.
Then we both heard Mr.. Browns boat
come chugging across the water, and
when it landed / saw that there was
a woman in it. Mr.. Brown came up
to us and said that he had brought
back his wife to see the island. Hazel
who do you suppose she is? Grace!
1t seems that they were in love with
each other all last summer. and she
kept it from us because she was afraid
of being expelled from the club. And
she told me that had hopelessly COM
promised myself by staying on the is
land with Mr.. Richmond and that the
only way out of the dilemma would
be to marry him. Isn't it dreadful?
Lovingly,
Adelaide.
"P. S. Mr.. Brown performed the cere-
mony by moonlight. When we get
back to Long Island you must como
and meet Harry at once.-A."

Rubbing 1t In.

Patient-Doctor, the only thing that
did my rheumatism any good was
spirits of turpentine, which my daugh-
ter rubbed On my neck. A friend
told me about it and it gave me SO
much relief that I began to read up
about it to see what 1T was. First,
found that it was good for pains in
the back, then for sprains. and finally
came to the conclusion that it was
good for almost anything. And
then l understood why most doctors
can make a living.-London Ideas.

Code of Politics.

The code of politics is very simple
and may be expressed in two sem
fences. The man who expects to re-
main factor in politics must be loyal
to his friends. Once he has given his
word he must keep it regardless.
These are the articles of faith, and
they have been the superstructure
Of every political dynasty, great or
small.-Jay e. House in the Saturday
Evening Post.
