Armenian girl pleads for relief for her people
Portland Churches Today Are to Remember Sufferings of Victims of Turks Massacre Many Years Ago Recalled.
lO
IN the various churches of Portland
Armenian and Syrian Relief day
will be observed today. Portland
will thus have an opportunity to shpw
its sympathy for the sufferers of Ar
menia. Offerings will be taken for Im
mediate relier worK.
Anna Karagozian, an Armenian girl
of this city, has some interesting and
thrilling stories which she tells in giv
ing a plea for the people of that coun
try. Massacres and cruelties planned
by the Turks form a part of the story
so vividly told by Miss Karagrozian.
Here is an extract from the young
woman's account:
"In the massacre of 1895-96 my uncle,
only a boy of 14 years of age. was
killed. This led us to seek refuge in
the Land of Promise because after this
it was impossible for any of us to live
there. If the Armenians all had enough
means to come to America they cer
tainly would have been here long
ago. It was one of. the missionaries
that caused our immigration.
"When we arrived here in 1908 not
knowing a word of English I - com
menced to go to school in New York
City and later in Portland. It is a Joy
for my parents to see me go to school
and have the opportunity of doing so.
America Is Appreciated.
"Now is the time that I appreciate
my coming to the United States, for I
love the schools and churches and my
teachers and schoolmates. I am happy
and contented; still I regret to say that
the persecution of my nation is little
comprehended, and it is my ambition to
give you a brief account of my parents'
experience, of what it is to suffer In
the great massacre of 1895-6.
"At noon one Tuesday there wasn't a
Turk to be seen on the streets, for
they had gone to their mosque or
church. In the services they were told
to kill as many Armenians as they
could, as it was the wish of Abdul
Hamid, whom they consider the son of
God, and all who were Turks could
make It known by being loyal to their
King and doing as he said.
People Killed With Clubs.
After they left their mosques they
were all prepared to fight. There was
a mosque on every other block and each
contained more than 500 people. First
they began to hit with sticks and clubs.
About a month before they had collect
ed all the weapons they could find
among the Armenians so that they
were unable to protect themselves ex
cept by running and hiding.
Soldiers started shooting in the
streets and kept this up for three hours.
By this time thousands were lying dead.
The soldiers distinguished the Turks
from the Armenians because they had
the white wrap on their heads. There
fore, no Turks were killed. This is how
It commenced and ended, but to write
all the details would take several
books.
"Bodies were lying everywhere on the
streets and streams of blood were run
ning In every direction. Tuesday eve
ning the Turks had begun collecting
the corpses; this was continued until
daylight. Still the streets were not yet
cleared.
Twenty-one years have slowly passed
and In Armenia today the world is wit
nessing the greatest and most barbaric
tragedy in all history. I plead for the
sympathy of American people."

Hope Presbyterian Church, East
Seventy-eighth and Everett streets,
was organized about nine years ago as
a mission. Six years ago the Sunday
school building was erected at a cost
of $3000 during the pastorate of Rev.
H. L. Nave, now deceased. Four years
ago Rev. S. w. faeemann became pas
tor. During his pastorate the mem
bership has grown from 40 to 200,
greatly overtaxing the building accom
modations and necessitating a. new
building.
Work began this Spring and the
building Is now complete, at a cost of
$6000. The main room is seated with
circular oak pews. There is a gallery
and a Christian Endeavor room. These,
with the Sunday school room, can be
opened to the auditorium, seating 700
persons in view of the pulpit. There is
a basement under the entire building,
In which there is a gymnasium, kitch
en, dining-room and other rooms for
Sunday school.
Three years ago a manse was erected
at a cost of ,2500. W. II. Kretzer is
the builder of both the church and
manse. Altogether this is one of the
most complete church plants in the
uity. Nearly all the money has been
contributed by the local membership
and people of Montavilla.

weeks after The Oregonlan announced
the selection of Dr. Joshua Stanstield.
of Indianapolis, to succeed lr. Frank
L. Loveland as pastor of the First Meth
odist Episcopal Church, of Portland,
the Portland Journal printed a picture
of the Indianapolis clergyman. "First
likeness of new pastor arrives." read
the Journal caption and in an accom
panying article was another boast of
that newspaper's enterprise in pub
lishing "the first photograph."
It is a typical Journal achievement.
The first announcement of Dr. Stans
fleld's call to Portland was made In
The Oregonlan of October 1. The fol
lowing day. this paper printed Dr.
Stansfield's picture. A new and bet
ter likeness of Dr. Stansfield ap
peared in The Oregonlan on October
6. and The Sunday Oregonlan of Oc
tober 15 carried a feature article con
cerning Dr. Stansfield's work. It was
accompanied by his latest photograph
and a picture of the Merldianstreet
Methodist Church, of Indianapolis, of
which he is pastor and to which Dr.
Loveland will soon go.
It is characteristic incident illustrat
