them over here every once and a while,
and they always come up in confden-
tial way and assume we are all fellow
countrymen over here in foreign
land. 1t would make you laugh to hear
them abuse Italy, and say how much
better "we Americans" do things.
Sometimes 1 say. "But arn't you an
Italian yourself?" and they will indig-
nantly inform you they are Americans,
while their English is so broken it is
difficult to understand what they are
saying.
Still no letters from home, but 1
hope you are all well.

LIFE SAVING STAMPS
HELP FAMINE VICTIMS
Each "Mercy" sticker Purchased
for Three Cents Provides Food
for One Day for a Chinese.

Sales Of "Life Saving Stamps" by
the American Committee for China
Famine Fund for the benefit Of China
famine victims have reached total Of
thousands Of dollars at the end Of the
first month, and already the money Is
actually saving lives In China. Or
ders during the first month aggregated
more than 100000 stamps, which
will mean-at the rate Of 8 cents for
each stamp-s300,000 for the Chinese
when the complete returns have been
made. The stamps are intended to Sc
cure a multitude of small contribu-
tions from persons who will not have
an opportunity to contribute in other
ways. The campaign for China Is the
greatest single philanthropic effort
now before the American people.
Every state in the Union Is now CO.
operating in the life saving stamp
sales, and special committees are at
work in more than 1000 cities through
out the country. The circulation OF
the stamps is being effected by sales
organizations composed Of officers OF
the Woman's Foreign Missionary So
cieties, assisted by commercial organi'
cations, schools, churches, Boy and
Girl Scout Camps, Y. NJ. and Y. W.
Christian Associations, fraternal
lodges, hotel associations, boards OF
education and other volunteers inter
ested in the movement to extend q
helping hand to sister republic in dis
tress.
House to house canvassing for the
sale of the stamps-which are intended
to be placed on the backs Of letters and
packages-has proved the most effec
tive method in the smaller communi'
ties. In the big cities the stamps have
been sold to business houses, which
are using them on their outgoing mail
and packages. A nominal quota of ter
stamps for every adult has been set BY
the committee, but in many center.
this already has been passed. If un
able to obtain stamps through a loca
committee write China Famine Func
Committee, Bible House, New York.

THREE PRESIDENTS
ASK AID FOR China
Harding, Wilson and Taft Appeal
to Americans to Help Stricken
Millions of Sister Republic.

The President and two ex-Presidents
of the United States have Joined, for
the first time in the history Of the
country, in an appeal for philan-
thropic enterprise. President Harding,
ex-President Wilson and e1-President
Taft are all in the forefront of the
movement to send aid from America to
the famine victims Of China.
One of President Harding's first OFF,
cial acts after his Inauguration, taken
when he had been in the White House
less than two weeks, was to renew the
appeal made by his predecessor in be-
half of Americas sister republic In the
East. President Harding said In part:
"At this, the earliest practicable mo-
ment in my administration, desire to
add my own to the many appeals
which have been issued heretofore ir
behalf Of the starving people of large
section of China.
"The picture of China's distress is
so tragic that am moved, therefore,
to renew the appeal heretofore made
and to express the hope that the Amer
lean people will continue to contribute
to this humanitarian cause as gener-
ously as they possibly can."
In appointing the American commit
tee for China Famine Fund, with his
own immediate predecessor in the
White House, ex-President Taft, as

nation:
"Not only in the name of humanity,
but in that of the friendliness which
we feel for great people in distress,
I venture to ask that our citizens shall,
even though the task Of giving is not
today a light one, respond as they can
to this distant but appealing cry for
help
