THE SUN, THURSDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 13, 1919 ARMENIAN-TURKISH FUND Hon. J. Y; Joy-rer Urges Stave To Aid Suffering People (Special to The Sun). RALEIGH, Feb. 4. State Chair man Jarnea Y. Joyner, of the Armenian-Syrian Relief Campaign, is rap idly getting his organization perfect ed, and in the week beginning Febru ary 21st he expects that the people of North Carolina will enthusiasti cally raise the .$200,000 which the Armenian committee asks this state to give as its portion of the $30,000, 000 necessary to feed the starving women and children until they can raise a crop. Dr. Joyner is one of the most en thusiastic workers for this humane cause, and he is certain that the people of the state, whom he has served for some seventeen years at the head of the school system, will rally to his standard, and that they will aid him in bringing North Caro lina not only up to the goal set, but that the subscriptions will far ex ceed the minimum quota. The churches of North Carolina have been striving for many years io aid the Armenians, who are the oldest Christians in the world. These people have been called upon to fight constantly to preserve the religion of Christ, and they have never faltered, even in the face of death. All kinds of pressure has been brought to bear upon them, and promises of freedom from the yoke of Turkey have bte.i made by Turkey as well as Germany. The Germans sought the aid of the Armenian soldieis in the world war, offering them a free republic in re turn for the help, but immediately the Armeniians told the Germans that their destinies were linked with the allies, and that whatever the out come of the struggle, they would re main faithful. No promise of good things at the hands of Turk or Hun could turn the Armenian from his re ligion and his determination to stand on the side of right. They preferred death rather than to break the faith. Theirs is the oldest church, having been established in the year 301. They have been massacred, their property stolen, they have been driven from their homes, and the" women and children have starved in the deserts, but they have never for saken their Christ. So now the churches have a systematic method through which to work to gain the ends for which they have striven that of preserving the pioneer church of Christ in the world. As you know, the world-war left "about four million Armenians and Syrians; four hundred thousand of whom are orphans, who have been driven from their homes, whose hom es have been destroyed and whose lands have been devastated by the re lentless Turks, helpless wanderers without means to live or means tc make a living. Without an organiz ed government through which loam could be made to them, they are ab solutely dependent upon thte charity of the world and mainly upon the charity of the United States because the European nations have thei hands full t otake care of their ow. sufferers. Unless they receive heb from us and receive it quickly the; are doomed to freeze, starve, die, and the noble remnants of this nace that for four centuries or more have per haps been the greatest martyrs to lib erty and Christianity, whose chief of fense has been their industry and whose unpardonable crime to the un speakable Turk has been their pro fession and practice of Christianity, will be uttedly destroyed. The Armenians ask only sufficient food to keep them until they can gather the next harvest, when they will again be self-supporting. They had 200,000 soldiers in the Russian army, 10,000 in the Ameri can army and 12,000 in the British army, fighting on the side of the al lies. While the men were fighting their women and children were driv en to the deserts to starve. They now need our aid to preserve their lives. Dr. Joyner asks the people of North Carolina to give $200,000 to swell the national fund to aid m saving this valiant people, and he is certain the response will be a ready one. There is more Catarrh in this section qf the country than all other diseases put together, and for years it was sup posed to be incurable. Doctors pre scribed local remedies, and by constant ly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Catarrh is a local disease, greatly Influenced by con stitutional conditions and therefore re quires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is a consti tutional remedy, is taken internally and acts thru the Blood on the Mucous Surfaces of the System. One Hundred Dollars reward is offered for any case that Hall's Catarrh Cure fails to cure Send for circulars and testimonials. F. J. CHENEY & CO., Toledo, Ohio. Sold by Druggists. 75c. Hall's Family Pills for constipation- To The Boy Who Stayed At Home The following poem was written by an American soldier in the hospital recovering from wounds received in action on the Western Front.

You say he could not stand the Army, The life is too rough for him, Do ycu think he is any better, Than seme other mother's Tom o Jim? You raised him like a girl, He don't smoke or chew, is you. brag, If all the boys were like him, What would become of our flag? You say, "Let the rough-necks do the fighting," They are used to the beans and the stew, We are glad we are classed with the rough-necks, Who have fought for the Red, White and Blue. You say, "His girl could not stand it, To have sent him off with the rest, Don't you think she would have been glad to have him enlist, When she felt the Germans' hot breath on her breast? Think of the poor women of Belgium, Of the cruelty they had to bare, Woud you have such a thing to hap pen, To your innocent daughter, so fair? Thank God, the stars in "Old Glory" Are not blurred with that kind of stain, Because there are two million rough necks, What have red blood in their veins. We go to drill in bad weather, And we come in with a grin on our face, While your darling, he sits in the parlor, And lets another boy fight in his place,. Maybe we do smoke and gamble, And we fight as our forefathers did, So, go warm the milk for his bottle, Thank God, we did not need your Kid. Ugh! Calomel Sickens; Saiivates!

The Southern states, though having, pro portionately, a larger agricultural nopuiation, are considerably in the lead of the New England and the eastern states in the percentage of increased per capita savings since 1914, was announced by the War Loan Organization here today. In the thirteen southern states the average per capita savings of 1918 showed $26,73, per capita war sav ings being $6.14.. But since 1914, he total per capita savings in the South increased approximately 45 per cent. The increase in New Eng and was $20.3 per cent; in the eas tern states, 10.7 per cent, and in the middle western states, 39.3 per cent. vVest Virginia leads the southern states with a per capita savings of 68.92, and with a war savings per capita of $10.25. Its increase since 1914 has been 32.3 per cent. Three other southern states are in cluded in the Fifth Federal Reserve District, their records being: Vir ginia Total per capita savings $44.89; increase since 1914, 41.1 per cent; per capita war savings, $5.18. North Carolina Total per capita savings, $24.24; increase, 40.9 per cent; per capita war savings $6.61. South Carolina Total per capita, $33.49; increase since 1914, 57.7 per cent; per capita war savings, $3.78. Increased savings in the South are considered of unusual significance. The per capita increase in the south ern states in the last four yeais shows a percentage more than four times as great as that in the eastern states and more than double that in thrifty New England, though in the New England and eastern states, due to war industries, the total volume of savings was necessarily greif"!st. Taken as a whole the war sayings of America and the general per capita savings are greater, proportionate , than in any other country. Market Quotations Corrected Weekly Yelton Milling Co.
