An urgent request for the churches

saving the Christians surviving the
"Kemalist scourge" in Asia Minor
was received at the Greek legation
today from the holy synod OF the
Creek Catholic Church at Athens.
Recounting the horrors following
the occupation of Smyrna by the
Greeks, the holy synod requested
that the cablegram be forwarded to
all the leading churches in the
United States.
The text Of the cablegram follows

one year on the Mexican border.
DIR. Bryson was known as an
efficient and intelligent officer" he
said. During his service from 1909
until the world war, there was
never a charge against him." said
General Stephan. ''and he was
never reprimanded.
1--WE considered him a brilliant
fellow, both as a physician and a
soldier"
After the war, when General
Stephan first saw DIR. Bryson, he
noticed q terrific change in him.
WAS DIR. Bryson able to carry
on an ineligible conversation at
that timer" General Stephan vas
asked.
THE conversation was brief, I
noticed he had hesitancy to reply.
His manner then was contrary to
that before the war"

Bryson at Camp Mills in August,

AS they passed the white palace

sadly down from her window in a
tall tower.
She sighed, but not a word Of
greeting could she call to them. She
had a secret that she dared to tell
no one.
She kissed a white dove and sent
it futtering down from her tower
to the green meadow where the road
ran. 1t perched on a fence and then
flew toward the Twins and settled
on Nancy's shoulder.

are safely across the Seven Valleys"
it cooed, "for they are dangerous to

Sorcerer, is still watching you from

AS the dove finished speaking the
Twins came to a place that looked
like the edge of the world. They
were on high precipice. Houses,
trees and fields looked like toys be-
low them.
This is Curlieew Valley" said the
dove. "The path down into it be-
gins behind that large rock over
yonder. Keep to the path and no
matter what you see don't turn aside
until tell you
Thank you," said Nancy, reach
ing up and stroking its soft, white
feathers lovingly. Wen try to do
everything you say"
The dove flew away then, down
toward the valley below, and lighted
on top branch of an Indiantoby
tree. The Twins could no longer see
it, but they could hear its soft voice
cooling to them encouragingly.
Come" said Nick. "We'll have to
hurry, Nancy" And he started off
toward the rock to find the path that
led down into Curlicew Valley.
