CHILD WOULD RATHER DIE
THAN BE so HUNGRY.

With communication channels be-
tween Eastern Europe and America
again opening up, relatives in this
country of destitute Jews abroad are
now in receipt of personal letters de-
scribing conditions over there. The
following story carries one of these
letters, which we have secured per-
mission to publish.-Editor.
Norfolk, Va, Oct. 14.-The terri
bic poverty and suffering that pre-
vail among the Jews of Eastern Eu-
rope, where millions of them have
been left destitute by the war, and
the need for relief work there, are
examplified by letter which has re-
Gently come into the hands OF the
American Jewish Relief Committee.
This letter was written by Chane
Bader of Rosdolby Lemberg, Galicia,
to her father, Markus Bader, OF 80
Orchard Street, New York City.
Four of the eight children OF the
family to which she belongs have
already starved to death, and her
mother is ill, as she writes. Her
father has now sent the family
money. through the Joint Distribu-
ton Committee of American Funds
for Jewish War Sufferers.
Here is the letter:
August 81.
Dearest and Most Beloved Father:
eve are all weakened from hun
ger. The children lie on the floor,
crying, "Give US small piece OF
bread. and mother lies on the bed
and listens to these words, and can
not close the hungry mouths. Al
bad as it is for us now, it never was
before.
"Send money and steamship tick
cts. It all does not bother me only
mother is lying in bed and we nave
not got the wherewithal to pay an.
doctor. Everything is pawned ant
sold. Think of some plan, and sent
us money quickly, by telegraph, s.
that we can save mother.
The mother has added postscflp
! to her daughters letter:
81, Kreince, write you ina
Schloeme, your youngest son, lies OF
the ground, and cries, and says tina

do Won want to die?" He tells me
aRather than be so hungry, it i
better to be dead"

FIRE AT KEARNEYsvILLE.

The garage of the Kearneysville
Auto Company at Kearneysville was
entirely destroyed by fire early last
Wednesday morning, entailing con-
siderable loss to its owners, VIM. B.
Horn and H. W. Wageley. The fire
was discovered shortly before 5
o'clock by an early riser in the vii
lage, and though he reused the
neighbors, it was impossible to save
the building, which was a frame
structure, or to remove its contents.
In the building was stock of tires
and accessories of the automobile
business, and this was destroyed, to-
gether with the machinery and tools
of the proprietors. Several barrels
of oil made the fire an exceedingly
hot one, but Fortunately the gasoline
tank was not involved. The store
of Francis E. Miller, adjoining the
garage, was saved by hard work on
the part of he bucket brigade. No
one seems to know how the fire
started. When Mr.. Horn left the
place the previous night there was
no fire in the stove nor anywhere
else about the building. 1t is pos
sible that it may have caught from
the electric light wires. The loss is
partly covered by insurance.
Gilbert Brown, colored youth
who attained some notoriety month
or so ago by outrunning a bullet
during pistol fight, was sleeping in
a room over Miller's store. He
dreamed that he was driving an
through hell in high
gear, and awakened in a terrible
fright. When he saw flames tapping
about the window of his room he
thought the dream was reality, and
with a wild yell he jumped out of
bed. He managed to escape alright
but he is wondering what will
happen to him next.

A STATEMENT OF FACTS.

The impression having been made
upon some people from reading an
article in the Advocate of December
"a, in regard to my final settlement
with the state auditors office, that
there was something irregular in
such settlement, | wish to make a
brief statement. No sheriff's term
of Office is finally closed until his ac-
counts are audited by officials from
the auditors office. My final settle
ment was made according to the
established custom that every sheriff
in the state has to observe under the
law. There was nothing unusual in
the settlement, it being made just as
all such settlements are made.

Late Sheriff of Jefferson County.

Raising the Wind

Talk about money for campaign
purposes is due, and some of it has
arrived. about this time" is the
old almanac style of putting the mat
ter.
Two things are stressed. Money, it
is asserted, is tight. People are re-
spending to some appeals, but not to
others. They are obliged to pick and
choose. There are good many ap-
peals of one kind and another. Pick
ing and choosin is matter of nee
essity.
The second thing is that so much
has been said in the past year or so
about campaign expenditures, people
shy at the subject. They fear party
managers with requests to put your
name down here, and make the sub
ssriptioaf tRs r 6 5RS 9Ssi6le;
last yea, a. toaer of strength has
hr>as- - - SUI mas
Nevertheless and notwithstand-
ing" there is safety in the guess that
both parties will collect enough to do
them. When party dander gets up
responses to money appeals are gem
erous.
Party dander is rising, and is likely
to rise high as the campaign pro-
ceeds. Both parties are thinking and
talking about 1924. The present CAM
paign, therefore is recognized as hav-
ing a large bearing on the question
Of who shall occupy the White House =
