are volunteers serving with a high
purpose, and they do not recognize
hardship when they meet It.
They have had their opportunity to
withdraw with honor from the field Of
famine and desolatlon. They have re-
fused to leave, because they know that
their departure would mean death for
tens of thousands Of women and chill
dren whom their efforts have kept
nlive and whom they are determined
to shve for better future.
A dozen cables are on my desk from
various centers in Armenia, Anntolia,
Cilicla and Syria pleading pteously
for the lives of hundreds Of thousands
who are homeless: "Sixty-nve thou
sand refugees Constantlnople alone :"
Refugees l1ocking into Aleppo;"
Twenty thousand refugees at lsmld :"
"One hundred thousand people at
AleXandropol will starve unless relief
is provided" Refugees arriving from
destitute! Urgent need TO save most
OF them from death - 1.-TWO hundred
thousand starving between Kars and
Alexandropol Severe winter adding
to Distress"
Above all towers the mute appeal OF
the more than 100000 little children,
orphaned, homeless, whom these Amer
lean relief workers have saved and
whom weshere at home must sustain
not only through the winter and
spring, but through the summer and
autumn as well. II we do not provide,
they perish! And with them dies the
hope of a New Near East.
The Easter season Is here-the sea-
son that commentaries the Grent Sac
rifice for mankind. America Is known
as Christian nation She Is also the
wealthiest nation that history has ever
known.
Can we really enjoy our wealth and
claim the name Of Christian II we turn
deaf ear to the appeal which General
Leonard Wood, in behalf of the Near
East Relief, has sent forth broadcast
for Lenten Sacrifice Offering to save
these little children In Bible Lands?
