Relief and Mission Field Hero
Wan!s to Rebuild Wreck
After Moslem Raids.
In the hope of restoring his old mis
sion buildings and resuming bis form
er work, from which be was forced to
fie? over the bodies of his murdered
friends at the height of the Moham
i dans' orgy of massacre, pillage aud
burning. Dr. E. 1. Allen, professor of
Biblical history at Whitman College,
Walla Walla, may endeavor to return
to the Near East during the coming
summer. For the lust four years or
sj he bas been aiding as a speaker in
the constructive program of the Near
East Relief.
I>r. Alii 11, one of the foremost Amer
Tc.i:i authorities ard speakers on the
Near East situation, and us such,
much t-ought after and widely known
throughout the Northwest, was, with
his wife, for 13 years a foremost
figure in the Presbyterian missionary
field of Persia.
During the last several months of
his stay In that country, he was al
mostly daily face to face with death,
once being rescued after the Turks
had built a gallows upon which to
hang him.
As the pioneer representative of
Near i'a<t Relief in that district, he
clung to his task of sheltering and
protecting Christians fleeing before
the hordes of Islam; reviving the
starving and dying, saving the wound
ed from fields of battle and massacre,
and rescuing Christian women and
girls from the lustful clutches of the
Moslem^, until finally deported with
Sfl.000 others. Less than half these
people survived the forced marches
through hundreds of miles of desert
heat, practically without food and
with little water.
His old mission buildings >ere syg;
tenia tic-ally looteJl and wre(Ke<r, ana
he and Mrs. Allen, now residing with
liim at Walla Walla, lost nearly all
their possessions and prized personal
effects along with tiiom. All forces
and factions in the Near East, the
Turks incuuded, are now protecting
supplies and workers of Near East

FOR HUNGRY KIDDIES
Many an ode has been written to
the "little brown hen," but according
to Miss Z. Fay Fowler, of Boise, Idaho,
director of Near East Relief, It re
mains for the kiddies of Armenia to
sing a new praise to South Idaho's
"Biddy," so patriotic in war and pro
ductive in peace, for South Idaho's
"Biddy" is playing an up-to-the-minute
role as "Lady Bountiful" to Armenia's
orphans In their crisis of peril and
need.
In the N'ampn section and other dis
tricts. contribution boxes In the form
of empty egg cases have been placed
in some schools. To "Biddy" lias
been assigned the job of filling these
with her eggs. These offerings are
brought to the schools by the pupils
and when a case has been filled it it
turned over to Near East Relief.
Five dollars will pay for the care
of one. of the Bible land's needy or
phans for an entire month in an or
phanage of Near Enst R°"ef.
The more laws pussed the more be
hnving the people have to do, and the
greater the cost of making them be
have. anil of punishing those who mis
behave, the higher tuxes are It seems.
It is cheaper to be good voluntarily
than to have the law to make you
I'OOll.
