SUNDAY SCHOOLS AND CHRISTMAS CHEER

It is a beauts ul plan that the Sunday schools of all denominations are to be allowed to share their Christmas cheer with the little boys and girls in Armenia and Syria. Their homes were comfortable and happy, their friends many and prosperous, and they were as free from thought of evi las we until the cruel war changed this. Now, hundreds of thousands are without fathers and mothers. Many are absolutely without shelter. They must be cared for quickly and all of us can help. Each Sunday school will collect money for these children dicing the happy Chrismas season. It is hoped that our community will do all for this cause that can be done. The money may go through the regular demnourinational channels or it may be sent to me and I will fort ward it to the Relief Committee. Mrs. Sidney J. Ash.
