i ARE STILL IN NEED. j.
Il !. !. i !. ]. !. j. j. i. i. s. i. !,

There are to-day between one and
half and two million Armenians
homeless, half-naked and starving,
scattered throughout the Near East,
the remnants Of the oldest Chris.
tian nation In tho world, whom war
has utterly impoverished and driven
to despair. They are still appealing
to us to save them. We have food;
we have money; we can do the Job.
] 1t is our clear duty to save these,
lest they perish.
We have felt little Of the war. But
with these people loyalty to the ideal
they fought for in common with us
has meant the annihilation of a mil
lion mon, women and children. We
have found peace. But with them
the war has never ceased, and to- day
1t Is more ruthless than It has ever
been. II we fought for the security
OF the world we have not won until
security has been assured these
faithful people, who were our allies
in the struggle, and who have found
destitution and hunger and death
where we have found tranquility and
plenty and contentment.
There Is no. need in the world any
where like this need Of tho Armen-
ians. 1t Is absolute, abject misery
from which there is no escape save
through our help. There are 250,-
600 little children in that war-dev-
astated land who have been the
wards of the American people
through the Near East Relief, Tor
the past three years. If our aid IS
Withdrawn, these children starve.
We have begun the work Of saving
them. We must carry it through.
The appeal of the Near East Relief
at this Lenten season is for a sacri-
flee to save these little children, to
save this martyred Christian people
That each man, woman and child
in the United States give OF his
plenty that these needy ones may
live. What we waste would do it,
But II. in the spirit OF Easter, we
sacrifice something for the sake of
those who have sufferd so much, a
whole nation will be reborn through
us.
(The above appeal came to The
Courier too late last week to be re-
produced at that time. There are
many good people in Oocnee who
have not yet responded to these ap-
peals for the starving millions OF the
Near East and the European suffer
ers. May we not have conribu-
tion from you for these worthy
causes, or for one of thema Your
contribution will be publicly ac-
knowledged by us and remittance
made to State headquarters in Co.

~sM December I,
1857, Ii officially adopted the Con.
stitution and thus was made a
beginning Of our present Federal
government. According to the
seventh article Of the Constltu-
tion, however, 1t was necessary
for nine states to ratify it before
1t actually came into force. SO
1t was not until the following
June, by which time eight other
states had accepted the Consti-
tuition, that the United States Of
America actually came into be-

The early history Of Delaware
was varied one, 1t started In
1888 when small party Of
Swedes settled at the mouth Of
the Delaware river and called 1t
New Sweden. In 1856, Peter
Stuyvcsant, the governor Of the
Dutch colony Of New Neither
lands. annexed this territory. But
1t did not long remain Dutch,
for In 1884 the English took
possession. When Pennsylvania
was decided to William Penn he
desired access to the seacoast
and at his urgent request Della
ware was transferred to Penn's
proprietorship. From the be-
ginning Of the eighteenth CEN
tury, however, Delaware had its
separate legislature, and at the
time of the Revolution 1t be-
came an independent state.
Delaware Is next to the small
est Of our states. having an area
Of only 2,370 square miles. Its
participation In presidential elec-
ttons Is limited to three electors.
This Is arranged according to
population. Each state Is entitled
to the same number of prestden-

or congress, so the influence Of ,

the President varies from Della.

named after the bay and the bay

1,101 BLIND PEOPLE
IN SOUTH CAROLINA

Atlanta, Ga, May 28.-In the
State of South Carolina live 11O1 of
the 57,272 blind people Of the United
States, according to figures given out
by the Southern Headquarters of the
Committee for Lighthouses for the
blind here recently. South Carolina
ranks twenty-fourth among the 40
states listed according to blind per-
sons per 100000 population and of
the above number, 3s6 are white and
624 negroes; $50 of the whites are
native born and 6 foreign born. The
statistics show that there are now 81
blind persons being cared for in
South Carolina institutions. .
The, Committee for Lighthouses
for the Blind of which President
Warren G. Harding is honorary
chairman, was founded in New York
Is years ago by Miss Winifred Holt.
Several Lighthouses as they. are
called-places of instruction for
blind persons to enable them to be-
come self-supporting and to provide
broader and more remunerative fields
of labor-Were established at that
time under Miss Holt direction. They
proved so successful that now light
houses are functioning in Italy and
France. Plans are now under way for
extending the United States so that
blind people everywhere will be as
sisted.
