Marden Tells of Condi- tions at Marcelon Beforc the War in Contrast With Chaos of Today. number of years at Marceion, Turkey, and who, at the outbreak of the Eu- ropean war, travelel over 13,000 miles along the battlefronts to reach home, spoke at the morning service at the South Congregational church Sesterday. Before the war,” Dr.' Mardén said, the city of' Memeelon had two. uni- versities for men and women respec- tively and also an institute for the deaf and dumb. A High school with 450 pupils who also = part of Marce- Jon’s educational system. Shortly af- ter. the war broke out trouble be- tween the Turks and Armenians be- came evident and martial law was es- tablished. All means of communica- tion was stopped and the Armenian familles were®slain or deported. All this, the speaker said, despite the urgent appeals and hard labor on the part of Dr. Morganthau, American ambassador. The government proved to be treacherous for it would send out statements repudiating these acts of lawlessness and at the same time send out secret orders encouraging them. On May 10, 1916, Dr. Marden said he operated as usual at his hospital and then went about the city to visit private patients, but was informed that “with other Americans he about to be deported. Graphically did Dr. Marden depict the terrible state of chaos existing in Turkey and urged that the people of America be generous in their contributions to as- sist in reclaiming this country.

Light, former attorney- general of the State of Connecticut, spoke to a 1epresentative gathering of thé patriotic orders of the city vesterday afternoon at the South Congregational church on “Lincoln and Americanism.” = Mr. Light said he considers Abraham Lincoln the greatést man that the world has seen’ sinceé the time of Christ. Mr. Light said that Abraham Lin- coln, the mart§r, was a much greater factor in the history of America than was Abraham ‘Lincoln the president. If you can find the right side of a man’s nature you can tell what his future will be, he claimed. No na- |tion or man can make permanent progress who does not place emphasis {on the spiritual side of life. In both | the lives of Washington and Lincoln | emphasis was placed on the spiritual | side of life, said the speaker. The | United States might suffer the same ! fate that Rome suffered but the | names “of Washington and Lincoln { would never be forgottén. In comparing the two men, Mr. Light said that they were both born in the same month but Washington was the father of the country while Lincoln was its saviour. Washington could not have performed the work that Lincoln did and neither could Lincoln have performed the work of Washington. ~ Washington was a wealthy man and the early part of life lived under a monarchy while Lincoln was nearer to the people and was born in the back woods. Lincoln was a firm believer in the Declaration of Independence while Washington was more interested in the Constitution, Mr. Light said. The political ideas of both men were de- rived from their study of the respec- tive documents. Both men for the work that they accomplished. “Lincoln,” said the speaker, “was a typical democrat while Washington was an aristocrat.’ Lincoln had more feeling for the needs of the country than did Washington but neverthe- less one was as great in his way as the other. “Lincoln differed from the average iman in ‘that the average midn never + acquires much he reaches With Lin- he was and gradually de- jveloping. He had less than a vear's ! schooling but he was not an ignora- mous; he was a learned man. Lin- coln was a man that absorbed know- ledge and was the most gifted man in governmental history. Lincoln was honest, affectionate and & perfect.Christian and there was no place in his life where he let his prejudices get the best of his better judgment stated Mr. Light. He was horn among men who had many vices but he never contracted any of them. ‘While not a member of any church .he was’‘a perfect Christian. | “In these times when the patriotism 'of Americans must come to the front it is well to think of Lincoln and re- member how he acted. Roosevelt said that he met many big problems during’ his sdministration but before he did these things he thought what would Lincoln have done?” “There are some who would have peace at any cost but not so Abraham Lincoln—he wanted ~peace with honor. The men of today should up- ! hold the honor of the country as there is nothing else in the world that will take its place. It is far bet- ter to die for a good cause than to be humiliated.” Mr. Light said that he wished that every man could emulate Abraham Lincoln and then there would be no need to fear for the future. “If Lin- coln made his day herolc why can't we make today the same? The people if they imbibe the spirit of Lincoln,” he concluded. after coln it was different for The proposed dear Involving the | purchase of the Ryder property in | | Plainville by W. W.

W. A, It is queer said Mr. Martin the Lax-a-Tone expert at the Economy New Engdland Drug Co., how so.many people trouble run on day after day, “they say I have terrible gas pains and shortness of breath,” go take a pinch of soda and have the same old story the next day. I often wonder if these people are not really conscious of the fact that as the some day they are going to awake is not going to relieve and they will find themselves in the throes of a chronic case of indigestion that will malke life a torture. Why not stop i that gas and bloat right now for good instead of relieving it with soda or some other temporary remedy. a bottle of Herbal Lax-a-Tone and one short week’s trial will convince anyone no matter how bad a case you have. Mr. Dunn, who lives at 29 Myrtle street, say: { had it badly, and all the pains let the tortures of stomach | ays drag on that to the fact.that the pinch of soda | Try | | for those unable to see him during the day. \ DUNN. “When you say that I had stomach trouble you are surely saying what is true, for I/ surely did have it ard and aches that go with it.
