faced the problems of a country nearly
one-fourth of whose people are massacred,
whose reserves are mostly used up, and
where means of communication practi-
cally do not exist. Its work has contin-
ued through hottest warfare between Tar-
tars and Armenians.
“The re-establishment of the Armeni-
ans in their own country,” said Dr. Heald,
“is one of the finest opportunities to work
out good ideas of government.” The Ar-
menians are probably one of the highest
orders of the human race, intelligent,
with a live spirit, and an intense desire
for education.
Relief for Armenia must come from vol-
unteer subscriptions from the wealth of
America. Armenia cannot borrow money
as a nation, but she works for her gifts.
Huge industrial plants have been estab-
lished where Armenians manufacture
cloth to dress their orphans. During the
gravest times of fighting with the Tar-
tars, calico was used as exchange for
sorely-needed wheat. With loaded camel
the Tartars brought the grain, guarded by
Armenian horsemen, armed to the teeth.
Now that fighting is over, reconstruc-
tion work can go on more quickly, the
Armenians left from the massacres can
flock back to their country, and industry
and government be established.
Dr. Heald expects to return to the Cau-
casus within a month. His work there is
practically the same as that to be taken
up in Persia by Dr. Post, a member of
the Service Corps.
SCIENCE CLUB ABOLISHED
The Science Club has been definitely
given up, following a vote taken at a
meeting last week. According to M.
France '19, former president, the scope of
the organiaztion was felt to be too gen-
eral to arouse interest, as compared with
the specialized clubs, such as the Philoso-
phy and Doctors’ Clubs.
The Science Club was founded in 1905.
