'lt will be necessary for surgeons in charge of the case of Clifford Hampton, a Benton county farmer, who was kicked in the face by a colt at his farm near Fowler aJew days ago, to build ulp a new nose for the injured man. Hampton's nose was terribly crushed by the blow, even to the bony foundation being pulverized. He is a patient at St. Elizabeth’s hospital in Lafayette, and the plan is to remove a small section of a rib and use the bone to construct a new framework for his nose. v The accident happened when Hampton tried to dislodge a colt from a hole in a straw stack.

THE TWICE-A-WEEK DEMOCRAT
DAUGHTER OF AGUINALDO IN U. S. CAPITAL
She Meets Many Wives of American Statesmen and Makes a Hit. When General Emilio Agulnaldo was leading the Filipino army against the American forces twenty years ago he probably little dreamed that some day u daughter of his would visit the city of Washington and would tie given a great reception at the famous Congressional'Club I And that the wives of 120 members of the American Congress and two wives of members of the President’s cabinet would call upon her to pay respects! But all this actually happened when Miss Carmon Aguinaldo, his nineteen-year-old daughter, visited Washington recently. And those wives of the American statesmen expressed themselves as, both charmed and surprised at the refined, tactful, college educated young miss who greeted them. “Miss Aguinaldo was simply delightful," was the expression of one congressman’s wife. “She was very modest, yet she acted so natural and thor-

Poster Tells Dramatic Story c f ’ am K J®} « V ™ Ilir J • « 1 ■ | j ri is OsOII■Ii I * I n i i . Ji I ■ This picture, painted especially for the Near East Relief by M. Leone Bracker, vividly portrays what words fall to express—the horrible suffering of the women and children of Armenia and adjacent countries. Peace has blessed Europe and America for more than a year but tn Western Asia conditions more frightful than any war time experiences of the martyred populations of Belgium and France still exist. Thousands of women and children escaped massacre by the Turkish soldiers only to face the terrible agonies of death by starvation. At the present time it Is estimated that 1,250,000 adults and fully 250,000 orphaned children are completely destitute and 16 imminent danger of death by starvation and exposure. ’ \ .' The Near East Relief, 1 Madison Avenue, New York, is at present the only organization giving aid to these suffering people and lack of funds stlU prevents the reaching of more than a small part of the stricken people.
Ington Miss Aguinaldo was given a real ovation by a Filipino-American audience when she recited “My Last Farewell,” poem of Dr. Jose Rizal, the Filipino martyr. Miss Aguinaldo is a student at the University of Illinois, Urbana, IIL While in Washington she was the guest of Mrs. Jaime C. deVeyra, wife of one of the resident commissioners from the Philippines. The Capitol building and the Congressional library appealed particularly to the young Fillpina, while the beautiful sights from the Washington monument thrilled her with delight When asked how she liked America, she smiled and answered : •‘lt is a wonderful country. I didn’t like winter at first, but since I have learned how to skate I am having fine times. All the Americans whom I have met have been very good to me. My friends In Urbana and my classmates in the university are Just lovely, but I cannot help feeling homesick at times because I am missing my father. My coming here was indeed a great sacrifice for him, for we are very close. lie is so good to me.” Miss Aguinaldo Is Intensely patriotic. She does not conceal her resentment when she hears or reads of a misrepresentation of the Filipinos, "it is unfortunate," she once exclaimed in a voice full of sadness, “that my country and my people are hardly known, much less understood, by the people of Amerlca." Politics Is* tabooed In any conversation with this Filipino maid. She evades the topic by replying that she is too young to express opinions on things political. “All I can say," she declares, “is that I share with my father in the desire for Independence for my native land. There is no question about our being able to govern ourselves." • Filipinos declare Miss Aguinaldo has a “genuine Filipina temperament”— that is, she does not believe in the occidental custom of “dates” between young men and women. She does not see anything wrong in It, she says, but it is such a violent departure from the custom in the Philippines that she cannot adopt it. “You might laugh at me,” she said, “but I cannot go out with one single escort unchaperoned. I simply can’t I wiM go back to my country with the soul of a Filipina." A newspaper in one of the large American cities that Miss Aguinaldo visited expressed the opinion that she would no doubt be greatly impressed by the sight of street cars and some'M the fine residences she would see, but the truth is the young lady was raised in Manila, where she has seen an upUpdate street car system all her life.
No Different.

WAR NURSE FROM ARMENIA ASKS AMERICA’S AID
Soldier Husband and Battlefield Baby Touring Country With _ Her for Near East Relief. A mother, father and daughter, the latter born in a tattered Red Cross tent In the Icy Caucasus while guns roared all around and Turkish shells, Ignoring the mercy emblem, burst near It, are touring America In behalf of their native Armenia. They are General Mezrop Nevton Azgapetian, his
LADY ANNE AZGAPETIAN.
wife. Lady Anne, and Ireneh Esther Araxie Azgapetian, whose baby eyes opened upon scenes of horror and later through them saw much of the sufferings of the people of Armenia. The family are making their tour under auspices of the Near East Relief, the big organization which has saved hundreds of thousands of the people tn that part of the world from death by hunger arid cold and Is soon to open a nation wide campaign for funds to complete the work of saving the survivors, more than a half million of whom must perish unless aid comes to them soon. America is their only hope. General Azgapetian served gallantly tn the Russian armies In the Caucasus against the Turks. His wife, who accompanied him to the front, did noble work for the wounded and sick, and It was while in this service that her baby was born In a hospital tent during a battle. An army blanket swung from two poles in one corner of the tent was the baby's crib during the rest of that terrible winter campaign. With the collapse of the Russian armies after the Bolshevist revolution the Azgapetians returned to Armenia for a brief spell and did their best to alleviate the suffering they found on every hand. But with a Turkish price on his head the father finally made his way with his family through Russia to Finland and then to this country. What they tell of conditions and needs in Armenia is first hand evidence. In the Caucasus, Armenia, Syria, Turkey and Persia are more than 250,000 orphans, helpless little victims of war, massacre and deportation, and for the great majority the only bar between them and absolute starvation Is a bowl of hot bean soup every day. This soup is supplied by the Near East Relief now making an appeal to the American people for sufficient funds to increase this dole and to provide these suffering little ones with clothing and give them an education that will help them to become self supporting. It Is estimated that more than 1,500,000 in Western Asia will die of starvation unless American aid is continued.
