those who are actually facing death
for want Of sufficient food ia hold
body and soul together. To us WHO
have plenty of foodstuffs. without
the frills, perhaps. il is hard IN con
ceivc Of the appalling want and mis-
cry over there; and words arc lack.
ing that will convey and i,mpart to
us true idea Of the enormity of The
suffering. In Russia it is estimated
l2,OOO,000 children will die if The
famine is not relieved, and in the
attached letter from DR.. Smith il is
stated that conditions in Armcni:,
and Russian Armenia arc worse. An
II IS the children Of those lands in
whose name the plea is made; little
helpless, thinly clad if clothed ut all
and suffering from the gnawing
pangs OF hunger The like of which
we have never known.

Iswer waiting. The call touches
ievery farmer in the United States
hence every farmer in Wcct Vir'
ginia. The American farmer is 90
ing to give 5000, 900 bushels of corn
and wheat. and Of this West Vir-
ginia, it is hoped, will give 100 90
bushels in grain or cash n huv

mas Ship leaves the middle Of the
month. Jefferson County has the
distinction of being the first in the
State TO ship a carload OF corn for

lutcly no reason why Grecnbricr
cannot be second though other
counties arc clamoring for second
Tor second place. Grecnbrier can
win out perhaps by getting busy.
