Biblical history records Armenia as the land where Noah's ark finally rested on Mount Ararat and the ancient name' for Armenia and tradition names Noah's grandson, Haig, as the founder of the race. The country was subject to the Assyrians and Medes, freed itself to be recon- quered in 325 B.

C. by Alexander the Great. Later the country fell into the hands of the Turks and from them and the Kurds, the Armenians have suffered unbelievably. A story of this suffering is contained in Franz Werfel's newest book, "The Forty Days of Musa Dagh," which records what happened to a group of Armenians who fled to the protection of the mountain, Musa Dagh, to escape the latest persecution of the Turks during the World war. WHILE THE CAT'S AWAY THE MICE WILL PLAY.

In 1915, the Ottoman rulers, claiming-that the Armenians were giving aid to the Russian arniy and that they must be removed from the scene of war, gathered all the population which could be found, men, women and children, and drove them into the Arabian desert. Turkish brutality, starvation and exhaustion ended the lives of most of the exact figure will never be known. Finally Germany and Austria were able to bring pressure on the Turkish government to end the massacre. "The Forty Days of Musa Women Conservationists MRS. HENRY C.

A PARISIAN CAUGHT IN THE MASSACRE. Interwoven into the account of the tribulations of the Armenians, is the story of Gabriel Bagradian, the Armenian, who had spent much of his life in married a French woman and whose son was more European than Armenian. Bagradian and his family had come to his native village near Aleppo on the request of his dying brother to care for the family's estate. He found himself caught in an inescapable net, the first indication of which was the confiscation of passports. He began to think of waya in which he might save Ms wife, Juliette, and his son, Stephen.

THE HOBBIES OF A Gabriei finally saw how'hopeless it was to attempt to smuggle Juliette and Stephen out of the country. He began making maps of the surrounding territory, particularly of the mountain Musa Dagb. He discovered that there were arms hidden in the village. He made lists of the people of the village and available supplies. All of these things 'were looked upon as the fancies of a gentleman of leisure, but the practicability of his leisure occupation was disclosed when spies reported that the people of his village were driven forth.

He had planned a haven for them on Musa Dagh and while some of them accepted it, many of them preferred to be exiled by the Turks. The life on Musa battles in which the Armenians defeated the Turks (unbelievable to the Ottoman gradual rise of chaos from the wisely planned order of Gabriel's camp occupies much of the book. One of its most interesting phases is the transformation of Gabriel from a Parisian gentleman into an Armenian." THE CASE OF THE STARVING ARMENIANS.

It presents their case in masterful writing. "The Forty Days of Musa Dagh" is a moving account of a whole people, crystallized in the story of Gabriel Bagradian. Gabriel's fight was against the fatalism which seems to tinge the thinking of persecuted minorities as well as against the Turks. For relaxation from something like "The Forty Days," try a good murder story such as "Sinister Inr." by J. Jefferson Farjeon.

It is somewhat different from the usual run of mysteries and tells the advau- tures of three English people, Julia Maitland, an author, Robert and Bill, rivals for her affections, who set out from Dartmouth in a small boat, much against the advice of all concerned. COMEDY BRIGHTENS AS PLOT THICKENS. Eventually the three are washed up on the shores of Brittany. They find an inn-keeper who doesn't want to lodge them for the night, but they are able to persuade him to take them in. A series of exciting adventures begins and the conclusion exposes the mystery to lie not what you thought, at all.

There are many comic situations, most of them arising from Bill's 'viability to speak French and his attempts to make himself understood. Ordinary, still funny. Home Builders 6:30 o'clock, First Methodist church. Daughters of 7:45 o'clock, courthouse. SATURDAY Kill Kare Mr.
