Dr. ; H. L. ; Underwood of this city
has received a copy of the American
Missionary Board quarterly, caption
ed "war news, extra edition." In it
are set out many- interesting things
about Turkey, but principally, deals
with the missionary situation at the
present time. The editor of the bul
letin remarks:
There has been so much talk in
the newspupers over the declaration
of "A Holy War" by the Sultan ot
Turkey, and so many friends appear
to think -that the Moslem world is
about to indulge in a general mas
sacre of Christians, that we have ask
ed the senior secretary of the Board
Rev. James L. Burton, D. D., to mako
a statement on the subject. , Dr. Bar
ton says: ..; . '
AH wars of the Turks frmo their
point of view, are "holy wars," the
public declaration that Turkey is now
engaged in a holy war with the Allies
is tantamount simply to the declara
tion on the part of the Allies that
they are, a war with Turkey. It is a
simple declaration of war: nothing
more, nothing less. : From the : Mo,
hammendan . standpoint,', however,
there is a great incongruity, .recog
nizee) by . the Mohammedans them
selves and often spoken of, in carry
ing on a holy, war under the leader
ship of non-Moslem or Christian of
ficers, as the Turkish arrny is now
'largely officered by Germans. .There
is no possibility, in the judgment of
those who best understand th situa
tion, that, under these circumstances,
what is commonly understood as a
"holy war" canfbe fought. Turkey to
day under German domination has no
leadership in the Mohammedan world.
No call for a holy war issued from
Constantinople can have any -influence
over Mohammedans in general
even in turkey much less in Arabia,
kgypt, Persia, India, and elsewhere.
There is no need . of any anxious
thought on the subject of the, calling
of a Holy War on the part of Turkey
at this time. -
- Why Missionaries Remain.;,
The secretaries of the Board are
between two fires in these days. On
the one hand the missionaries in
Turkey are stirred up because' the
Board is holding back fifteen newly
appointed missionaries on account of
the war. On the other hand the . rela
tives and friends of the missionaries
. now in Turkey rebuke us for not
iiwg an oi mem nome. The mis
sionaries write: "Under what possible
argument are you keeping these
workers from sailing when the oppor
tunity here is so great?',' The friends
and relatives write: "How dare you
assume the responsibility of keeping
the missionaries in Turkey , in times
like these?',' Each' position is natural
but is based upon lock of information.
The new workers for Turkey are kept
in this country not because we would
fear, for their safety were they At
their stations, but because travel, es
pecially in the interior of the country
is impossible or unduly hazardous,

Prompt Action Will Stop Your Cough
When you first catch a Cold (often
indicated by a sneeze or cough),
break it up at once. The idea that
"It does not matter" often leads to
serious complications. The remedy
which immediately and easily pene
trates the lining of the throat is the
kind demanded. Dr. King's New Dis
covery soothes the irritation, loosens
the phlegm. . You feel better at once.
