AN DVERTISEMENT IN THE TRIBUNE IS A DIRECT PERSONAL APPEAL TO COLORED PEOPLE VOLUME II. NO. 44 COLORED DETECTIVES TRACING LYNCHERS IN NORTH CAROLINA ```markdown ``` (By Associated Negro Press) RALEIGH, N. C., Jan. 28.-The determination of Governor Bickett of this state to run down the recent lynchers of a Colored alleged criminal in the governor's home county, has aroused public sentiment in this state beyond anything known for ycars. Governor Bickett is determined to demonstrate to the world that there is one governor of a southern state who is resolved to stop lynching in his state and uphold the majesty of the law. The leading newspapers and the public are backing up the governor in his righteous crusade. There has been unquestioned excitement in the vicinity of the lynching since it has been learned that several operatives of the Keystone National Detective Agency of Chicago, Ill., are on the ground and acting in the interest of the authorities. It has not lessened the excitement to learn that the Keystone agency is controlled by Colored people, and the manager, S. A. Brusseaux, was one of the United States government's trusted secret service men until recently. To add to the confusion, it is not known whether the Keystone operatives are white or Colored, but it has been learned on high authority that they are men of long experience who have an enviable record of getting results. The private message from the Chicago office by Manager Brusseaux states: "We are sparing no expense in helping to ferret out the guilty lynchers, because North Carolina has a governor with backbone, and we know if the criminals are caught, they will get the kind of justice that will be an example for the entire nation." GLOBE--MIAMI Hawkins Chapel A. M. E. church is still progressing. Mr. Alvin Booth gave the choir committee a neat donation on the piano. Mr. Phillips has been elected a member of the Stewart board. Mr. Staten was appointed class leader. We can truly say, "The church is moving on." Mrs. Alberto was a visitor in Globe Monday. St. John's Baptist church was pleased to have Messrs. R. Price and A. Toliver out Sunday night. Mr. Perry Brown received a message that his father was seriously ill in Corpus Christi, Texas. St. John's Baptist church had an old-fashioned praise service Sunday. Rev. Coxey, (white) preached for us Sunday night and a large and appreciative audience was present. Rev. and Mrs. Wm. Young were dinner guests of Mrs. B. Taylor on last Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. M. N. Young and family were guests of Rev. and Mrs. Wm. Young on Monday. An old-fashioned chicken dinner was served and enjoyed by all. Organizers are now traveling over the state in the interests of the Near East Relief. Let the reception given the worker assigned to this town be in keeping with the merits of the humanitarian task of caring for homeless children.

The call for the election was issued Tuesday by the board of education. The hours of the election are set from 9 o'clock in the morning until 6 o'clock p. m. All taxpayers, otherwise eligible, may vote at this election. Warwick Scott, M. E. Bemis and C P. Evans have been appointed judges to conduct this election. Conditions at the high school, it has long been known, have been such that additional space is absolutely necessary. There has been an increase of 25 per cent in attendance at the high school in the past two years. At present there are 1,300 pupils enrolled, as compared with 900 in 1918. Due to the world war, the attendance in 1919 fell to 870. The coming year, all indications point, will see a still larger attendance than at present. It is announced by the board of trustees that should the bond proposal carry at the coming election some of the contemplated improvements will be made in time for the fall term of school. Of the $500,000 in bonds to be voted on, $40,000 is proposed of be expended for street improvements, such as paving, and for the reconstruction of sidewalks. From the remaining $460,000 will come funds for the erection of three additional school buildings, with equipment, furniture and apparatus and for improving the grounds. The board of trustees made the decision on January 16 to call this election. Notices were posted Tuesday in conformity with the law. Plans for the campaign are now being worked out. The notice is signed by members of the school board as follows: Lin B. Orme, chairman; George A. Alkire, clerk; J. M. Stewart, B. F. McFall and Amos A. Betts. Bishop L. W. Kyles Coming to Phoenix February Nineteenth Rt. Rev. Linwood Westinghouse Kyles, A. M. D. D., bishop of the Seventh Episcopal District A. M. E. Zion church, will pay his Episcopal visit to Phoenix, Ariz., on February 19th. This will be his last visit to this district before the meeting of the general conference which convenes in May. Bishop Kyles is one of the greatest scholars identified with the race and the youngest bishop on the bench today of any of the Methodist churches in the United States. To miss hearing this great man, who captivates his audiences and holds them spell-bound from start to finish, would mean that you had missed a rare treat. He is chairman of the Ter-Centenary campaign of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion church, which organization is pledged to raise $1,000,000 in the interest of home and foreign missions, Christian education, ministerial relief, church extension, and to commemorate the three hundredth anniversary of the Negro's landing in America. Bishop Kyles will speak at the A. M. E. Zion church, corner 7th avenue and Grant street, on February 19th, at which time a splendid program will be rendered by local talent. Watch this paper for further announcement. —W. J. Conquest, pastor A. M. E. Z. church. By ALPHONSO ROBINSON Mrs. A. Jones of Phoenix was a business visitor in Mesa last week. Mrs. Clara Lewis and family are enjoying life to the highest. Rev. J. M. Robinson made a business visit to the capital city Saturday, returning to Mesa Sunday morning. Masters Edgar and Chalmers Harrington are residing in Mesa on Palmer avenue. The children of Franklin school are proud of them. Mr. Judge Taylor received three large sacks of pecans from his friends in Oklahoma. He is now furnishing pecans to all his friends for their enjoyment. Miss Ione Smith of Phoenix and Mr. Albert Taylor were in Mesa last week. ARIZONA'S GREATEST WEEKLY EMMETT J. SCOTT OFFERED POSITION WITH STANDARD LIFE (By Associated Negro Press) ATLANTA, Ga., Jan. 28.—Harry H. Pace, for a number of years one of the active forces in the Standard Life Insurance company, is to sever his connection, and devote his entire time to the musical production company of Pace and Handy, with headquarters in New York. It is reported that Dr Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University, has been of fered the position. YUMA--SOMERTON By Mrs. Versie Rainwater Mrs. Guy Morris of Los Angeles has joined her husband and they have taken charge of his father's ranch. Mrs. Walter French of Prescott is a visitor in Yuma. Mrs. Martha Chison has returned to Yuma after several days' vacation in Tucson. Mrs. Chison has charge of the culinary department at the Yuma hospital. Mr. A. J. Tullis of Somerton was a visitor to Yuma last week. Mr. and Mrs. E. R. Caton, Mrs. Chester Potts, Mr. C. E. Mallory, Rev. and Mrs. Jackson motored over from Somerton to attend the funeral of Mr. A. W. Gardner's mother last Sunday. Mrs. Edgar Wells made a flying trip to Phoenix last week. Mrs. Jennie Henderson, aged 70, mother of Mr. A. W. Gardner, departed this life Saturday, Jan. 24. She was afflicted with dropsy and everything was done to relieve her suffering, but she sank slowly until the end. Mrs. Henderson had said she was only waiting to answer the call. Mrs. Henderson was born and reared in Missouri and resided in Illinois, Michigan, California and Arizona. She joined her son in California and they moved to Yuma last September from Santa Monica. Mrs. Gardner gave his mother every comfort a faithful son could give, but still his loss is heaven's gain. Funeral services were conducted by Rev. Jackson of Somerton from the O. C. Johnson undertaking parlors Sunday at 4 p. m. The body was placed in a beautiful gray casket and interment was in Yuma cemetery. Pall bearers were: Messrs. Greenway, Harry Morris, Sam Hill, Guy Morris and E. E. Rainwater. SENSATIONAL STUFF FILLS COURT RECORD IN BIG DAMAGE SUIT The Funk-Gardner case which came up for trial last week in the Superior Court, and in which the jury decided in favor of the defendant, was replete with sensational testimony such as reporters for big daily papers usually like to chronicle. The defendant, Benj. A. Funk, was alleged to have made certain defamatory remarks concerning the reputation and character of one Mack Gardner, better known as the "King of Diamonds." Testimony was introduced by the defendant tending to show that he was warranted in making the alleged attacks upon Mr. Gardner's character, and, after hearing both sides of the case and reviewing all the evidence, the jury brought in a verdict in favor of the defendant. The plaintiff had sought to recover $25,000 damages. The principals in the case are well known jewelers of this city. RESPECT IN THE SOUTH (Pittsburg, Pa., Dispatch) (Florida, Pa., Dispatch) The white soldiers of the United States should prove themselves a power to compel recognition of the civil rights of the Negro soldiers who served in the same cause of civilization. There should be a pride of the service and a protecting determination for the rights of every soldier, white or black, to bring the Legion to the defense of the Negroes of the South, where racial discriminations and hatreds are blind to the respect due the uniform. The Legion could not do a better service to the country, PHOENIX, ARIZONA, JANUARY 31, 1920 Douglas School Is Efficiently Managed By Present Faculty Efficiency, system and good management explain conditions existing at Douglas grammar school and kindergarten, so far as lies within the power of the teachers. Notwithstanding the absence of modern and adequate facilities such as those provided for white pupils at various schools throughout the city, and the fact that each teacher at Douglas school has two grades, consisting of 25 to 50 pupils, over which he presides, a visitor is impressed by the efficient and systematic manner in which these pupils are being trained. Principal Landry, aside from the duties of directing head of this institution, has charge of the seventh and eighth grade students. That he has his heart in the work is evident, for he takes such infinite pains with the backward student and seems eager to make explanations. Thorough training is what the pupils in his room are receiving. Mrs. E. L. Clayton has charge of the fifth and six grades and is equally efficient in her manner of training and managing these students. Miss Mabel Robinson is in charge of the third and fourth grades, and, judging from the manner in which she conducts the classes and manages these forty-seven young hopefuls, she must have had special training for this work. Mrs. Annie Marooney presides over and is shaping the destinies of the pupils of the primary grades. Entering this room one is at once attracted by the neatness of appearance, general decorum and orderly manner in which these little children are being trained. Mrs. Phoebe Gardiner and her assistant, Mrs. Ardmore Jenkins, have charge of the kindergarten. They are capable instructors, having had special training in kindergarten work, and both seem to delight in it. Gymnastic exercises form an important part of the training given the pupils of Douglas school and each teacher is given a certain period in which it instruct his pupils in outdoor gymnastic exercises. Domestic science also is taught. A special building has been provided for this purpose and fitted up with such things as are necessary for instruction in this line. The girls are taught household economics, sewing, etc. No better, more capable staff of teachers can be found anywhere than those now employed. Douglas school now boasts a total enrollment of 175 pupils, which number includes those of kindergarten, and never before has there been a more satisfactory system of management than the present system, inaugurated and maintained by Prof. P. Landry and his co-workers. FIRST A. M. E. ZION CHURCH Corner 7th Ave. and Grant. W. J. CONQUEST, Pastor. Sunday school at 9:45 a. m., preaching at 11 a. m., and 8 p. m. Christian Endeavor at 7 p. m.

TRIBUNE JEWISH RABBI HEARTILY INDORSES LEAGUE OF NATIONS JEWISH RABBI HEARTILY INDORSES LEAGUE OF NATIONS (By Associated Negro Press) NEW YORK, N. Y., Jan. 28.—Dr. Henry Berkoquitz, rabbi of Congregation Rodeph Sholem, Philadelphia, who occupied the pulpit of Dr. Samuel Schulman at Temple Beth El, declared that a spirit of hate, transcending even the three cardinal sins, was more widespread today than ever before. He instanced the pogroms in eastern Europe, adding that the Japanese were massacring Coreans and that Negroes were being lynched by Americans. The league of nations, he said, was all the more needed because of these conditions, and he denounced those who, he said, were flooding the country with propaganda against the covenant on the ground that it was irreligious and immoral because the peace conference at Paris failed to open its sessions with prayer. By REV. MAJOR JONES The Colored people of this city are indeed grateful to Curley Ames & Co., undertakers, for the manner in which Miss Bell Walker was laid to rest. Mr. Curley is a young business man with a broad vision and a big, generous heart. We hope the Colored citizens of Douglas will patronize this place when in need of the services of an undertaker. Not that we desire to boycott the other fellow, but we mean to be more like the other fellow—put our money where it brings best results and where it is appreciated and shown. This firm has promised to give employment to a Colored man as soon as the business increases. Let's go where our patronage is desired. The Colored men of Douglas met last Thursday evening at 5th street school and organized a business club. The number present was forty-two and the slogan of the club is: "Get a business in Douglas owned and managed by Colored people." The following officers were elected: President, Major Jones; vice president, J. Hayes; secretary, Srgt. Reed; treasurer, Srgt. Weatherly. If you want to keep up with the activities of this club, read the Tribune. Rev. A. C. Caldwell of Phoenix was a visitor in Douglas Sunday. He preached two splendid sermons at the C. M. E. church and we consider it quite a treat to have had Rev. Caldwell with us. All his old friends were out to meet him. The public is cordially invited to attend services at the Mt. Olive Baptist church. Sunday school, 9:30 a. m.; preaching at 11 a. m. and 8 p. m. Prayer meeting Wednesday evening. Rev. Major Jones, pastor. Mrs. A. Roberts left Saturday evening for Fort Huachuca to join her husband, who is connected with the medical department of the 10th cavalry. Mrs. W. M. Porter desires to thank the many friends who showed kindness to her during the recent illness and death of her husband. Mr. Porter, who came to this city from Sherman, Texas, passed away December 17th, 1919. He leaves one sister, two brothers and a dear wife who will mourn his passing. Interment was made in the local cemetery. On last Saturday, Mrs. J. F. Laster served a delightful Spanish luncheon at her beautiful home, 617 Fifth street. Among those present were Mr. and Mrs. Gardner, Srgt. Smith of Co. H, 24th Inf.; Miss Hill, W. M. Wright, W. Bright, Mrs. Caley, Mrs. Jones, Mr. Jackson, Mr. Thomas, Mr. and Mrs. Andrews. All agreed that Mrs. Laster was an ideal hostess. It was erroneously stated in last week's issue that Mrs. Laster took Miss Walker into her home when, as a matter of fact, Mrs. Laster merely secured a home for her with Mrs. Duds on Second street. NEW YORK, N. Y., Jan. 28.—When he was sentenced to die in the week of February 16, Frank Kelley, the Negro slayer of Katherine Dunn, offered only one objection. It was Friday, he said, a hoodoo day, and might therefore have an adverse effect on an application for an appeal, which his lawyer said would be filed at once. Local Minister Tells Of Progress Made By the New Church (By Rev. W. J. Conquest) The first A. M. E. Zion church, corner 7th avenue and Grant street, is in its infancy so far as the organization in Phoenix is concerned, but if the prosperity of this church in the future continues as it has in the past, within the next two years it will stand shoulder to shoulder with any church of this city. The services are being well attended and the musical part of the services, under the direction of Madam Brown, is as good as could be expected. The pastor's sermons are edifying to the Christians, convincing thoughts which cause conviction of the sinner and bring many back to the fold of Christ. The collections always are good. Sunday's collection was $27.50 and this does not include the monies raised during the week which, if counted, would make a total of $38. The many persons who attended services at this church left overwhelmed with joy and with a desire to come again. HELCROBES OF COLORPHOBIA (Houston, Texas, Post) Every now and then something occurs to show that there are officers in the army of high standing who appear to have no conception of the race problem, and who go blundering along creating situations which stir up racial clashes. The latest instance was the sending of a white prisoner under guard of two Negro soldiers from a southwestern camp to Jefferson barracks. The trio got as far as Fort Worth, where a mob formed and a riot was narrowly averted when it was found a white man was in charge of Negroes. The Negroes were relieved of their charge and he was sent on under a white guard. According to news dispatches, the Negro guards were in no way to blame. They were carrying out orders from higher up, faithfully and honestly. But inasmuch as the segregation laws of Texas prescribe separate coaches for Negroes, it was necessary for the Negro guards to take their white prisoner into the Negro coach. To say that southern sentiment would not tolerate such a situation as this is putting it mildly, and an army officer with intelligence enough to hold a commission should have known it. Such occurrences as these raise the suspicion that it is not so much ignorance on the part of white officers who are responsible for such orders, as that there are individuals among the officer class who take occasion to deliberately flout the south, and to use their authority to show their contempt for southern feeling on the race question. PRETTY STRONG STUFF (By Associated Negro Press) DANVILLE, Va., Jan. 28.—Despite the protest of the conductor a government mail carrying train was held up for twenty minutes here while policemen arrested Charles Anderson Pitchford, flagman of Greensboro, charged with having made derogatory remarks about the local police force. Pitchford on Sunday slammed a door in the face of a policeman after, it is alleged, he had abused officers for meddling. Pitchford was searched, which aroused the ire of numerous railroad men. The flagman was marched to the court house, where he was required to give $25 bond for his apearance. Pitchford, it is said, told a policeman who objected to Negro passengers in the white coaches, that Negroes and white people were on equal terms and that if the white passengers objected, they might "get off and walk." OLD JUDGE LYNCH Galveston, Texas, News) Thus Judge Lynch is seen to have extended his jurisdiction both as to territory and as to character of crimes. He now takes cognizance of crimes of which formerly the legal tribunals of the country were suffered to have an exclusive jurisdiction. Still another significance of the statistics is the fact that of the eighty-two 'victims of lynchings last year seventy-four were Negro men, one was a Negro woman and seven white men. Thus it is seen that Judge Lynch has come to ignore the distinctions of sex and color he was wont to make when he was less sure of his 5 CENTS A COPY; $2.50 a YEAR NOTED ARMENIAN IS COMING HERE IN INTEREST NEAR EAST Gen. Mesrop N. Azgapetian, noted Armenian soldier, and Lady Anne, his gift wife, are coming to Arizona to speak in behalf of the Near East Relief, and the campaign of the state organization, through which Arizona is pledged to provide funds which will take care of 1,000 homeless Armenian wafs out of some 400,000 reported as facing starvation. General and Lady Azgapetian will address a public mass-meeting to be held in Tucson, Tuesday, February 3, according to a wire received from national headquarters. On the following day the general will go to Phoenix. These will be the only two stops made in Arizona. Arrangements for the Tucson meet-nig has been placed in the hands of Dean Byron Cummings of the state university, who is state chairman of the Near East Relief, and the state headquarters force will have charge of the arrangements for the mass-meeting to be held here February 4. Charles P. Willis, state director of the Near East Relief, reports widespread response to the appeal for ald. Sunday schools, churches, fraternal and women's organizations throughout the state are undertaking to pledge themselves $15 a month, which will clothe, feed, shelter and keep in school some little orphan. Public-spirited men and women throughout the state are also coming forward with generous appropriations toward the cause, and have given their unqualified endorsements. BY ARCHIE LEWIS Mrs. L. C. Reese of California is visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ruben Reed and also her husband. She will remain for an indefinite stay. Messrs. J. A. Lewis and James Coleman left last week for Superior, where they have taken a large contract for plastering. They expect to be absent three weeks or more. Mr. Burkes of Hayden is spending a few days in Ray. Mr. and Mrs. Ruben Reed were dinner guests of Mr. and Mrs. Archie Lewis last Sunday. Wild duck was the piece de resistance. Miss Barlett, teacher of the school in Sunnyside, has been granted a vacation and left last week for her home in Los Angeles. Another lady will have charge of the school during her absence. A fair-sized audience attended services last Sunday night. Rev. I. P. Dillon, a missionary, with headquarters in Phoenix, occupied the pulpit. authority than popular tolerance has allowed him to become. We have much reason at this time to make the forces of law and order militant, but anyone who reflects on the growth of the lynching practice must see that the logical point of beginning is this form of lawlessness.

Horace Greeley said that the best labor is that of a high-minded workman with an enthusiasm for his work. For such a man there is life, hope, and a large fortune. For him there is always a place on the main track. Many of our readers have asked why we use the term, "equal justice," when, as a matter of fact, we mean only justice—pure and simple. We employ the above term for the reason that so many of our group have been given an entirely different brand of justice to that which would have been accorded other people under like conditions. For example, take a review of recent court decisions in the South and some other sections of the country, and you will find that Colored men have not always been given a fair and impartial trial, yet the contention is that justice has been done. In view of this and other conditions we need not mention, we feel justified in the use of the term "equal justice" whenever we hear of a case where one of our group has received that brand of justice that would have been accorded a person of another group under the same conditions. Necessity demands that we organize some kind of society where current topics may be discussed. Our people are coming into this valley very rapidly and the need of a public forum becomes more and more apparent. Such questions as the Americanization movement, League of Nations, local conditions and many others, need to be discussed openly by us in a public forum and where necessary, take steps to bring about a more harmonious relation between the races. Next month, the taxpayers of this city will be called upon to vote $500,000 bonds for improvement and buildings at the high school. How many of us have given thought to this matter? Don't you think it about time for us to get busy and try and secure better accommodations for our high school students? If we ever expect to accomplish anything along this line, now is the time. Nothing comes without effort, but much may be accomplished by organized, concentrated endeavor. Had there been an organization among us where current topics are discussed, this matter would have been brought before that body and debated, and we would now be ready to line up in an intelligent manner and vote for or against these bonds for the high school. However, 'tis said that "it's never too late to mend," so let's get busy now. DOES OUR NEWSPAPER WORK PAY? It is frequently asked whether it is worth while to go into the newspaper work of our group. The newspaper field now is widening day by day, but much of success depends on individual ability and push. Shakespeare wrote about giving to "airy nothing a local habitation and a name." One of the most notable examples of doing that is found with Tony Langston, dramatic editor of the Chicago Defender. A few years ago when Editor Robert S. Abbott was yet struggling to meet the weekly printer's bills, he turned over the dramatic section to Tony Langston, and told him to "go to it." All Langston had was a lead pencil and a pad. Well, he had something else intangible; he had vision. With this equipment and an abundance of energy, the work was begun. It was hard sledding in those days. People were not much interested in our newspapers, and the majority of those interested cared little for theatrical news. Publicity is one of the cardinal virtues of theatrical success. But those in the profession, while generous hearted to a fault, wish to be talked about where talking counts. Tony Langston met all the problems of the situation, handling them with such consummate skill that he was given the popular title of "General Tony." With the constant growth of the Chicago Defender his section grew in importance and influence and value. He began with one column. Today his section occupies at least two full pages, and often more. Mr. Langston's section carries weekly comments on theatrical attractions and performers, and averages more than $2,000 per month in advertising. He has the distinction of being the highest paid newspaper employee of our group. Does our newspaper work pay? Ask genial Tony Langston, who, by the way is a nephew of that distinguished statesman, the late John M. Langston.—Associated Negro Press. PAGE TWO Address all Communications to the PHOENIX TRIBUNE P.

A mother, father and daughter, the latter born in a tattered Red Cross tent in the icy Caucasus while guns roared all around and Turkish shells, ignoring the mercy emblem, burst near it, are touring America in behalf of their native Armenia. They are General Mezrop Newton Azgapetian, his A. LADY ANNE AZGAPETIAN. wife, Lady Anne, and Ireech Esther Araxie Azgapetian, whose baby eyes opened upon scenes of horror and later through them saw much of the sufferings of the people of Armenia. The family are making their tour under auspices of the Near East Relief, the big organization which has saved hundreds of thousands of the people in that part of the world from death by hunger and cold and is soon to open a nation wide campaign for funds to complete the work of saving the survivors, more than a half million of whom must perish unless aid comes to them soon. America is their only hope. General Azagpetian served gallantly in the Russian armies in the Caucasus against the Turks. His wife, who accompanied him to the front, did noble work for the wounded and sick, and it was while in this service that her baby was born in a hospital tent during a battle. An army blanket swung from two poles in one corner of the tent was the baby's crib during the rest of that terrible winter campaign. With the collapse of the Russian armies after the Bolshevist revolution the Azagpetians returned to Armenia for a brief spell and did their best to alleviate the suffering they found on every hand. But with a Turkish price on his head the father finally made his way with his family through Russia to Finland and then to this country. What they tell of conditions and needs in Armenia is first hand evidence. In the Caucasus, Armenia, Syria, Turkey and Persia are more than 250,000 orphans, helpless little victims of war, massacre and deportation, and for the great majority the only bar between them and absolute starvation is a bowl of hot bean soup every day. This soup is supplied by the Near East Relief now making an appeal to the American people for sufficient funds to increase this dole and to provide these suffering little ones with clothing and give them an education that will help them to become self supporting. It is estimated that more than 1,500,000 in Western Asia will die of starvation unless American aid is continued. Departing from custom, the Federal Council of Churches has endorsed the work being done by Near East Relief, 1 Madison Avenue, New York City, the former committee for Armenian and Syrian Relief which has assayed the task of caring for 1,250,000 starving people in Western Asia. Resolutions adopted by the executive committee, as announced by Charles S. Macfarland, general secretary, are as follows: "Your committee recommends that prayers be offered in all our churches for the suffering children throughout the world, especially those who are in distress and peril as the result of the war. "They further recommend that we reaffirm and emphasize our interest and co-operation in the plans of 'Near East Relief.' We know of no need in the world that is more compelling than that of the Armenian, Syrian and other peoples in the Levant who have already received and must still receive the generous sympathy of the American people." The Armenian population of the United States is said to be between 75,000 and 100,000, most of whom came into the country after the massacres of 1895-96. Sammy Coles, of Luxborough, West Somerset, England, a famous pedestrian preacher, during forty years walked 35,000 miles to keep preaching engagements. Cardinal Gibbons Asks Aid For Starving Armenians This is the message from James (Cardinal) Gibbons read at the big meeting in Washington in aid of the Near East Relief. The venerable primate of the Catholic Church in America is intensely interested in the appeal which the Near East (® International.) Cardinal Gibbons. (® International.) ested in the Cardinal Gibbona. appeal which the Near East Relief will make to the country in February for funds to support its work among the starving peoples of that stricken land. To the Washington meeting he wrote: "Advices and information coming from the Near East cannot be doubted. There is great actual suffering and famine. These people, recently become independent and released from bitter thraldom, cannot support themselves. And the Christian and common instincts of humanity which have prompted the people of the United States during the last two years to relieve the distress and needs, especially of the Near East, must not be allowed to grow cold and be diminished. "I hope we shall all unite in this present emergency and be able to collect sufficient funds to enable these peoples to live and work until next summer brings them permanent relief and subsistence. I call upon all to respond generously to the appeal now being made and trust that the committee will be gratified with the results." $5 PER MONTH FEEDS ORPHAN Cleveland H. Dodge Shows What Near East Relief Can Do in Efficient Purchasing. Buying in wholesale lots and under the most favorable market conditions, Near East Relief of 1 Madison avenue, New York city, with representatives in every state of the Union, has been able to baffle the high cost of living so far as relief supplies for the suffering millions of the Near East are concerned. Cleveland H. Dodge, treasurer, in a statement shows that the committee is able to provide food for the suffering people of the Near East at prices much lower than the average charge here. A donation of $5 per month will provide food for one orphan, $10 per month provides not only food, but also clothes and shelter for one orphan, and for $15 per month attendance at school is assured to each orphan in addition to food, clothing and shelter. In the appeal for funds to save the starving remnants of the Armentans and other western Asia peoples, Near East Relief is inviting the American public to "adopt" an orphan at the rates given here. Over 250,000 homeless children are in need of help in the Near East. Women's organizations, lodges, churches and social clubs are responding to the appeal by adopting quotas of orphans for support over a definite period. WOMEN ADOPT 10,000 ORPHANS WOMEN ADOPT 10,000 ORPHANS Connecticut to Provide Foster Mothers for Little Victims of Turks. Ten thousand little victims of Turkish brutality are to be foster-mothered by the big hearted women of Connecticut as the result of appeals by Near East Relief, the former Committee for Armenian and Syrian Relief of 1 Madison avenue, New York city. The women at a meeting voted to "adopt" that number as their share of the 250,000 homeless and starving boys and girls orphaned in the massacres and deportations. Three hundred representatives of women's organizations attended the meeting at Hartford, at which Governor Marcus H. Holcomb presided and pleaded the cause of the stricken peoples. Another speaker was Henry Morgenthau, former U. S. Ambassador to Turkey. Assurances that the example of these noble hearted Connecticut women will be followed by similar organizations in all the other states have been received at the headquarters of the Near East Belief, 1 Madison avenue, New York city. One of the most famous—as well as one of the worst—puns of history was perpetrated by King James I. of England, when Sir Walter Raleigh, whom for political reasons he disliked, was presented to him.

The Near East Relief is a business organization engaged in the practical philanthropy of keeping soul and body together in thousands of little children. The activities of the Red Cross in the Near East have been turned over to the Near East Relief, incorporated under a special act of congress, and accountable to the government for every cent collected and expended. The Holy Land has become a stamp-issuing country. For use by persons employing the mail system which the British, represented by the Egyptian expeditionary force, has established, a franking label of special design has been put forth. The letters "E. T. F." appear at the top and at the bottom; the words "one plaster" are at the left, in English, and at the right in Arabic; in the center appear the words "postage paid," once in each language, and the figure 1 is in each corner, either in English or Arabic. The stamp has appeared in ultramarine, and in dark blue and has been surcharged with a new value, five millieme, which is half of one plaster. Thus three varieties already have appeared, and others may be expected. Leap year is a year which leaps over, as it were, one day more than an ordinary year; a year which contains 366 days, as distinguished from an ordinary year, which includes only 365 days. Every year, the number of which is divisible by four, is a leap year, except when it happens to be any number of hundreds not divisible by four. Thus 1884 was a leap year, but not 1900, this omission of leap years in such centuries being necessary to correct the error which arises from the excess of the addition of one day in four years (i. e., six hours) to the year over the true length of the year, i. e., 365 days 5 hours 49 minutes. It is promised that Helen Keller, the famous blind and deaf woman, is to appear in the "movies."
