In a titer letter they speak cf the arrival of a ship to take back a load of refug es for repatria tion and the joy it brought to the camp, although the Salonika camp to which they were bound could little additional in the way of clothing or other relief. Previous letters, written from the Xear East, tell of the enforced flight "at the wihm of a Turkish official," of the Rambos and St'fl little orphans in their charge. They had to leave at a moment's notice and in the dark, traveling all night on foot and carry ing their own blankets, clothing and everythir.g else they possessed. They were allowed no lights and were told not to speak above a whisper, as mur-, derous Turks were running riot ail j along the way.

The Rambos conducted their 200 charges, with many adventures and hardships, to safety within the wails of a British Relief station, and turned homeward, stopping over for a day for rest at Adana. While they slept, exhausted, the Turks tore up the rail roads leading to and from Adana, and left them marooned in the hot, dusty, besieged city. They awoke to find bullets breaking through their walls and whistling all around them. With Miss Grane, a young American relief worker, they finally started from Adana in a Xear East Ford, joining i refuitf-e caravan and fleeing south ward.

State Manager J. J. Handsaker, in charge of the executive work for Ore gon for the combined China-Near East campaign, 606 Stock Exchange building, Portland, says the situation is no less serious in the near east than in China, and liberal funds must be raised for both causes if wholesale death by starvation is to be prevented, or even lessened. 4 : I it i Notice!
