LAUNCH CAMPAIGN
 TOAD OUTF|TTING
 NEAR EAST VICTIMS
Cast-off Garments Requested by Committee at Local Chamber of Commerce
 Office

An old clothes campaign for the relief of the famine sufferers in the Near East has been inaugurated in Birmingham and will continue through this week and next. The peo- pie of Birmingham are asked to give their old clothes, suits. odd pieces, shoes and felt or cloth hats to the local committee for shipment to the Near East.
 During the present week attention Is called to this campaign by a large number of the advertisers in their advertisements in daily papers, and some of the department stores have offered to receive these old garments and pack them ready for shipment.
 In the event as much as one car load of old clothes are donated for this purpose railroads will ship them free to the seaboard for export.
 In the Near East there are several hundred thousand women and chill dren, and a few men, who are with out clothing to keep them warm. They have been driven from their homes by the Turks and nearly all of the able-bodied men murdered, leaving the women and children homeless and without food or cloth ing and no means of earning money.
 Seven years they have been perse- cuted and driven from place to place by the Turks whose avowed inten- tion is to exterminate the Christians of those lands the Bible lands.
 The Near East Relief local com mittee, with headquarters in rooms 206 and POT Chamber of Commerce building, upon notice by letter or personal call, or telephone, Main 1865, will arrange to collect and ship any old clothes that may be given for this purpose.
 Garments that have been discarded by the owner as worthless are ac- ceptable.

GORGAS MEMORIAL
 CAMP PAIGN TAXES
 RENEWED EFFORT
Dentists in Recent Convention Here Continue Aid in Max ing Institution a Success
 and a Reality

At the meeting of the executive campaign, held at the offices of Jemison and company Tuesday morn ing, it was decided to push the cam palgn vigorously toward a successful conclusion.
 The special campaign among the dental fraternity for the Gorgas me- morial is assuming a national aspect under the inspiring direction of pr. c. B. Fowlkes. Because of the short time to elapse before the meeting of the board of directors of the School of Sanitation at Tuscaloosa, at which the curriculum Is to be planned and a faculty elected for the fall opening of the institute, the dentists are pushing the work in the several states and securing committees for an extensive campaign. Dr. Clay Hassell, chairman of the state board of examiners, who has demonstrated intense interest in the dental hygelne aspect of the institute, is leaving for Meridian today to present the Cor gas memorial to the Mississippi Dem tai association In session in that city. The immediate necessity of school of the type to be established at Tuscaloosa is felt very keenly by the dentists of Alabama and the nation.
 Convention of the Alabama Medical association in Birmingham this week Is bringing into the city many of the leaders of the Gorgas movement Tn the other counties of the state. Live committees are at work in some or the towns of the southeast, and sev- eral of the northern towns are ready to start the minute the Auburn cam paign Is completed in their cities.
