The hope of the entire Near East country, according to Miss Margaret Held, teacher In Jefferson High School of Portland, who recently returned from a term of service to the Near East Relief orphanages in Russian Armenia, is bound up In the 110,000 orphans being fed, clothed, educated and trained for terming and the ln dufltrlnl trades. The continuous wars which have swept this unfortunate country since 1014, she says, have left It devastated and its people helpless, starving and In despair before the staggertng task of reconstruction. "They are plodding on as best they can," says Miss Reid, "but are cen tering all their hopes for tho future of the Armenian and Syrian races up on 110,000 children In the American orphanages who are receiving careful American training. Outside the orph anages there Ib practically no school ing or training to be had. Every ef fort must be directed towards tho dif ficult objective of mere physical sur vival. Many 12 year old children can neither read nor write. This Is be cause war has swept that country ever since 1914. Theso boys and girls are j from well-educated families, and real izing how handicapped they are, they como to the orphanages and offer to gtv so part of ttecr food ft thr can be given schooling. Prom the desti tute families come mothers in rass and tatters, thin and hollow-eyed from hunger, offering to make any sacrifice If we wtll only establish schools for their children. In all the orph anages the children are being taught to read, write and figure In their own language. The older, and brighter chil dren receive instruction In geography, history and English. Because bread is needed o much more than education, we cannot afford a sufficient number ot teachers to teach personally all the children, so our few teachers give their extra time to the bright pupils, who aro able, to a short time, to serve as teachers for the others. These chil dren are marreloUBly Industrious. Practically all the work of my orph anage was carried on by the children, who did all the cleaning, sewing, cook ing and laundry work, also helping in the hospital work and clinical treat ments. They realize that every penny of American money must go for their sup port and to help other children keep alive, so the bojfs of our orphanage, when they wanted a swimming pool, dug the hole themselves and then went without supper twice a week for many weeks In order to buy the cement und she labor ot the workmen to finish it. "When the Mttlo refugee children corae Into our orphanages they are always In a most pitiable condition dirty, covered with vermfn, clad only In filthy rage, and many of them af flicted with scabies, trachoma and oth er diseases resulting from starvation, exposure and lack of care. The first task Ib to clean the child thoroughly, shave Its head, and treat the eyes and scabies sores. Next comes a system of careful feeding, lest the food provo fatal to the famlBhed and emaciated lfttle bodies. In about two weeks thu little waifs are able to run about, but It takes a year or more to make them over hi to normal, wholesome chlldrrn. Thefr Joy and happiness in tlxs para dise of an American orphanage is the thing that makes It possible for an American worker to endure the sights that must be won -on the ootslde of tho orphnnngo walla every day. But happy as they are, these little ones never seem to forget the awful things they have been through. We had one little , boy named John, four years old, who for weeks after bolng admitted, would Btenl the shoes of the other boys, their bool;s, food from the kitchen, every thins. This was because tho only way ho had of keeping alive all his life, hud been by stealing. Another hoy of six yrarB would Bit by tho door, for days after ho enmo, with bis hands out begging for food, despite the fact Hint he was receiving threo meals a day. It was hard to mako him understand that ho still djdjiot have to beg for food. A four-year-oia ooy wno nud opt'iit the previous winter bogging In a ruliff-d village and sleeping at nl,;ht among tho Bhecp, had a perfect horror of bolus uttnl away from the orphan ago. One day he recognlaod two women visitors who came from the rutnod vll lane whore ho had begged when scarce ly wore than a buby, and ho ran to mo sobbing and lu terror, nlcuellng with mo not to lot them tako him away The boy who ran my errands was 13 years old, an ArnicafHn. W hil sots his entire family kfllud before life iym tn a Turkish muHflarm. Hiding anion tho rurns, ho escaped massacre, but , next day was found by Bomu Arabs, wUo took him Into the- drert and made him their ulave for two years. Then ho was rescued by tho English and brouKht to our orphanage. "The personal history of em-h litt'e orphan Ib a tragedy In Itself and no ono but thoBo In close touch with these' little ones can know tholr deep prutl tude aud reverence for anything Amer ican. This gratitude and reverence It uufversol throughout all that land ol sorrow, whore tho helping hand ot Ameilra, through tho Near East le ilef. has saved hundred ot thousand from death tj starvation and tode) offer the only hope for the survival and rehabilitation of these tragics.II) stricken races."

J. Handsaker, State Director of the Near East Relief when he met her tn Constantinople last summer. "After much effort" say Mr. Hand saker, "I persuaded her to tell me some of the things of this hum-drum life of hers. Sitting In a Constantinople coffee-house she told me of some of the events of her life since March , 1619, when she arrived In the Near East." "Her first work was at Karakllss, where with her slBter, Miss Gertrude Anthony, she had charge of a large orphanage and a territory 76 miles square for general relief. During the time she was there she nursed her sis ter through both typhoid and typhus. The two women were alone In this sta tion. "After going through this experlenco they went to Alexandropol and there one day received a message from the English that they were evacuating Baku, some BOO miles away. The British had been feeding about 1,000 children, and unless they were trans ferred Immediately they would starve u uvm u rt nriilnti tuft ThtA rweectn woman whose lite was so hum-drum j quietly secured two special trains, put ting a man In charge of one, and tak ing the other herself. On arriving at Baku, she began loading the children at 10 o'clock a. m. and had the children and their supplies all aboard by 6:30 p. m. She read the riot act to the Turkish captain in charge of the train and he compelled the guards to ceace attempting to enter the cars where tho older girls and women were. The round trip took nearly two weeks, but Mrs. Burt returned to Aioxanaropoi wiin her two train loads of children without having lost a single' child. It Costs You More' to rot buildings than it j does to let paint save them POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENT CHECK 'the costs. Compare the prices of lumber and paint They will show you how extravagant it is to allow build ings to depreciate for lack of paint ' And buildings do depreciate rapidly unless they are painted when they need to be. Paint saves the lumber. It protects your investment. To enjoy the biggest saving in painting, use the best paint. It pprcads more easily saves labor cost. It covers more surface per gallon than "cheap" paint. It serves five or more years longer than "cheap" paint. The best paint is most economical because it is scientific in formula and preparation. Wc have been making best paints for 73 years. They "contain the finest materials. Our white lead, for Instance, is PIO NEER WHITE LEAD. It is super purified and ground so fine that it will pass through s silk screen with 30,000 meshes to the square inch. So with the other materials pure ' linseed oil, pure zinc and pure colors all of the finest quality, combined in Fuller's Paint in scientifically exact proportions with long-time skill.
