THE HEPPNER HERALD, HEPPNER, OREGON TUESDAY, MARCH 29, 1921 PAGE FOUR CORN COBS ARE DiET r OF HUNGRY CHINESE Oregon Nurse Writes That Misery Stalks Through North China. f That a steady diet or grotina-up corn iqfjbB and sweet potato vines is not conducive to an ideal physical condi tion is attBHted by Miss Marie Rustin, graduate nurse, well known in Oregon, who is now in charge of the Taylor Memorial hospital, under the manage ment of the American Presbyterian mission at Paotingfu, China. In a letter written by Miss Rustin less than eight weeks ago to the mem bers of the Sangrael Christian En deavor society of the First Presbyter ian church in Portland, Miss ltiistin tells of tin; appalling conditions throughout North China, where 45, 000,000 men, women and children are confronted with starvation and where 30,000 are dying daily. Miss Rustin has been at Paotingfu for about three years and for many months past, like all other mission attaches and relief workers In China, has been concentrat ing all efforts on the task of lessening the suffering of the famine victims. Whilo Paotingfu is ou the outskirts of the great riroiiUi-ruihed famine dis trict, juat south of Pekin, Miss Rustin writes that mn there all the missions and relief stations are literally swamp ed -with the supplications of many Uiousand men, women and children who are half clad in thin rags, weak from undernourishment and struggling desperately to keep alive on roots, bark or anything that offers susten ance. The situation in the heart of the famine section, she says, is simply beyond the imagination. "Wo are doing all we can," writes Miss Rustin, "here in our hospital try ing to "build up the weakened bodies of famine sufferers who come to us in frightful condition. We are getting patients who have been trying to live on ground up corn cobs and sweet po tato vines. We have all been aBked to give until it hurts, and now that it has grown so cold we do not dare to think of freezing, starving thousands right at our door. In going to a soup kitchen where we feed 670 peopla Iwice a day, 1 was surrounded so by the poor creatures that I thought they would crush the life out of me bofore I could get In and coming out it was the same way. They are so hungry and cold they are desperate. Person ally I have gone without $3 worth of milk a month that I used to use, da not eat butter at all and have only eaten bread once a day for the last three months, In order to give to the famine poor. Through this personal sacrifice I have the joy of knowing that three girls who might have been sold have been saved from a life of shame and misery and that one man will be kept alive for five months. I "A friend sen! mo a cheek the oilier day nnd I was able lo save a girl from being sold and she will lie put In school. ThingH are being started to help these pour souls, bul there Is n long, liunl pull until the harvest time. You ran all help by giving to the China famine fund and ahare In the great opportunities of saving life and opening the way for Christianity, for the Chinese people will surely be In terested in what we have to tell them of the gospel If we ar. good to them now In their great trouble," Stale Manager .1. .1.

With te.mnunni starving, the slttia Hon Is a ioUea.il tragedy," said Mr. Lewis, "and rather than see their chil dren seller any l inger, parents all through the famine lands are kilting their liltle ones and then themselves. 1 here are millions of gacnt, emaciat ed, half naked men. women and chil dren reaming the (amine lands, chew- nig routs and bark, nnd h inging lean i C clnusly to life, In the of tort to pull through until spriiK.

Is a horrible, calamity of solfenii-; aut starvation, of pestilence- and death - all due to the most terrible, famine the world has ever known.
