Armenian Campaign Opens.
M. M. Aijian speaking in the in-
terest of the relief campaign for the
Near east, at the Lancaster Christ-
ian Church Sunday night, addressed
an andience composed of members
of the four churches and citizens
general as a mass meeting had been
called to 3tart the work.
He told the history of the perse-
cution of the people who adopted
the Christian religion during the
fourth century and maintained it
through the prosecution of four
different races.
He told of the various massacres,
of the deportation of his own broth-
er, with 25,000 men and women
from an Armenian city to Turkish
territory because they refused to
fight against Russia and the allies,
detailed experiences which the wo-
men and children of the subjected
country were forced to endure, of
the killing of his father and mother
with 30,000, others, ten years ago,
He said the climax of the prosecution
came when the Armenians refused
the bribes of the Turks and tempt-
ing offers made them if they would
enter the struggle against Russia on
the north and against the allies on
the west and south. Becuse our
men refused to take part with the
Turks, a policy* of deportation was
outlined and enforced by the Gov-
ernment It had as its ultimate
object the utter destruction of the
little nation. During the spring of
1916 a total of 1,600,000 people of
Armenia were deported from their
homes. Where they were taken we
do not know. But we do know
1300,000 of them perished on the
snowy fields through which they
were matte to march for days and
days. My brother who was a
wealthy merchant, was separated
from his wife and children and ta-
ken with a group of men from one
at the small towns of Armenia. I did
not know where he was, as I was
able to get no word from him. But
several days ago I received the first
letter I had been able to get for
It was written on a
tarn from a book,
mid is very short He is one of the
few Americans who survived out of
the 25,000 inhabitants of a city.
The remaining 300 are made up of
women and children.
But this was not the wotst. In
the market place of one of the Turk-
ish cities I saw 40300 orphan child-
ren of the man and women who
perished at the hands of the Turk
i slaves for a sum
25 or 30c. I have

hammedan beasts. I can not tell
of these thing unless you give me
the vocabulary *of some language
not yet created which will be pow-
erful enough to erfpress the horrors
and the misery and the suffering I
have witnessed. ’
The German Ambassador in Con-
stantinople refused to stop these
persecutions, although an order
from him would have settled the
matter absolutely, and he refused
to remove himself so the Armenian
Ambassador could exert his influ-
ence."
An offering of some $70 was
made that night and pledge cards
distributed. A meeting was called for
Monday afternoon to appoint com-
mittees and organize for the work.

UnHsnal Sights in the Skies.
“Hie present planet Venus is now
in view in the western sky setting
one hour and twenty minutes after
the sun sets and febout five degrees
north of sunset point As the sun
comes north, Venus will come
north a little faster than the
sun does, Venus-is also coming east
much faster than the sun is, so on
the 25th Venus will pass two de-
grees north or the planet Jupiter.
Jupiter is now nearly overhead at
nine o’clock these evening, and will
continue to go east and get brighter
all the dine until it meets and pass-
es aMbost in line of the of the plan-
et Saturn, apparently touching Sat-
urn on the north; yet Saturn will be
850.000300 miles beyond Venus.
Venus will at that time be crescent
shape. This will occur on July 2,
1919. Venus and Jupitor will ap-
proach each other until May 25 and
separate from each other thereafter.

Chronicle.
