Death During This Winter.

0hArIss v. Vickrsy, General Score
tary Of the Nsar Hast Relief, gave out
tho following statement on his return
from four months economic survey in
the Near East:
I have been in the Near East every
summer since the arnistice. have
seen something Of the harvest of
death from starvation in the famines
q 1919 and subsequent years. But
think / have never seen more Of hui
man heartache than this summer
among the dispossessed peoples and
races from Persia on the East to Corfu
on the West, and from Thrace and
Macedonia on tine North to Syria and
Palestine on the South.
Edward Everett Hale wrote the
fictitious story. The Man without
Country but in the Near East today
there Is the grim reality not only Of
individuals and families, but of whole,
races literally without country. The
refugees dare not return to their once
prosperous homes in the interior OIL
Turkey and cannot find safe haven orI
protection in any other country.
"Longfellow's poem, 'Evangeline.' L.
the poetic account of a midsummer
romance compared with the stern
realities and thousand-foid tragedies
that / saw crowded upon the decks OF
refugee ships in the harbor Of Piraeus,
seeking mere foothold in that Al
ready oyercrowded country, Greece.
During the last winter and spring
10000 refugees died for want Of
PROPER food, clothing and medical
care. H - estimated that during the
coming winter and spring the death
toll among the refugees may reach q
total Of 100000 unless steps are taken
at once TO render assistance Of the,
noss effective kind The refugee
population In Greece includes about
$4,000 children who are in dire need
Of outside relief, Of whom more than
10000 are full orphans and 10000 are
half orphans.
These are in addition to the -
proximately $4,000 orphans whom the
Near East Relief, with contributions
from West Virginia and other States,
IS already supporting in various or.
phanages. OF these, 10000 formerly
living in the heart OF Turkey, are now
being supported and educated in Syria
and Palestine, including orphanages in
the cities OF Jerusalem, Nazareth,
Sidon, Beirut. Jubeil, and other places
famous In Biblical history"

SUCCESSFUL REVIVAL CLOSES

A successful revival closed Monday
night in the M. E. Church, South;
Rev. o. H. Dorsey is the pastor, and
Mr.. Pitzer was the singer. Aside
from the revival, a number Of con-
versions are reported. While this
meeting did not last as long as some
revivals of the past, yet it has given
equal results. There is no church but
what can stand revival, for these
special meetings bring about GER
tain fellowship that otherwise can
not be found without revival.

should be the aim of the citizens to
place good and efficient candidates up
for Office, and then be slow to criticise
their acts, for no one man can please
everybody. Harsh and undue criti-
cism has kept many good and use

the loser. In the selection of candi-
