The picture was taken upon the arrival of the first American Relief Administration transport at Sterleetamak, capital of the Bashkir Republic. The sled train is laden with food, drawn many miles from the nearest railroad station, to be distributed among the famished children through the ARA feeding stations established there. Cables tell of the joyful reception which this relief party met upon arrival at Sterleetamak. The hungry inhabitants were in desperate straits, as they are pretty much throughout the Volga Valley section, and this American food was a God-send. Children flocked about the sled-loads of supplies and assisted in unloading and hardest hit among those which felt the heavy hand of starvation, following the great drought. The ARA lost no time in getting food to many of the remote places in this republic, sending out relief parties from Sterleetamak, which is the principal supply station in the Bashkir Republic. The condition of the natives there continues to be serious. In many districts there is no food whatever. Substitutes, when they can be found, are used. These have been prone to induce illness in most cases. Chronic dysentery and malnutrition have weakened the children to a pitiable extent. Deaths through starvation have been common. Many, in an effort to flee the stricken section, have died by the roadside while conducting a futile search for food. Those who remained, principally because they could not find ways and means to leave, had to await the arrival of food provided through conducted by the ARA with despatches. The delivery of many food packages, sent through the Hoover Food Remittance system by relatives and friends in America has helped the situation somewhat. Many additional adults, however, are in need of food. These remittances can be obtained by anyone in America upon application to the office of the ARA. 42 Broadway, New York. In turn, for each $10, 117 pounds of substantial food, including flour, rice, condensed milk, cooking fats, sugar and tea are sent to the stipulated person, institution or group of individuals. Many of the younger inhabitants of the famine zone are without sufficient clothing to protect them against the biting blasts of the Russian winter. Inasmuch as no provision is made in the ARA program for this sort of relief, funds for this work must be secured through public contribution. mak capital of the Bashkir Republic.

Orr, 75, of Pasadena, who was found dead in the West Side grammar school building at Fullerton yesterday morning, met his death by asphyxiation, accidental, was returned this afternoon by the coroner's jury following the inquest held at McAulay's funeral parlors.

REVIVAL AT GRAND CLOSES TOMORROW Closing services for the revival campaign, which has been in progress for the past three weeks at the Grand theatre by the Harding Evangelistic party, will be held tomorrow. There will be services at 2:30 o'clock in the afternoon and one at 7:30 in the evening. At the evening service Evangelist Harding will preach on the subject, "Some One's Last Call." Announcement of the story of the life and conversion of Evangelist Harding attracted a large crowd to the service last night. In the hour and fifteen minutes that it took the evangelist to tell his story, he pointed out all the failures and disappointments that came before his conversion and many of the successes that followed. The story follows in part: "I was born a weakling, and was 2 years old before I could hold my head up and 4 years old before I could walk. I was born in an environment of great poverty. My people were extremely poor, and in our house, our parlor, living room, library, sunparlor, kitchen, bed rooms, and dining room were all one big room. We had only 40 acres of ground, and this was so rocky and hilly we could plow only 10 acres of it. There were rocks on my father's farm as large as this theatre building. "Martin county, in Southern Indiana, is the poorest country in the world. The only things that were raised in abundance were children. It appears to me that the poorest countries have the greatest number of children and the richest have the fewest. "I was brought up in poverty and ignorance, without a Sunday school. The few church people there did not believe in a Sunday school. My mother used to talk about the jumping off place, and I used to think that the horizon at the tops of the hills that These remittances can be obtained by anyone in America upon application to the office of the ARA, 42 Broadway, New York.

Parts of the Bible, however, are translated in 725 languages. CHURCH VENTILATION One evening the good dominie of a certain church was eloquently addressing his congregation on the beauty of sticking to the straight and narrow path when he suddenly paused, glanced around the room, and beckoned to the sexton. "Jones," said he, as the sexton approached the pulpit, "open a couple of windows on each side of the church, please." "Beg your pardon, Sir," returned the sexton with a look of surprise. "Did I understand you to say open the windows?" "Yes," was the cold, hard rejoinder of the dominie. "It is not healthy to sleep in a warm room." United States Expenditures, 1920 1.

Anderson and W. B. Allen, of the local realty company, visited the grape lands yesterday and were so favorably impressed with them that it was agreed to sign up immediately for the agency. W. J. Elliott, of the firm, who is well acquainted with the grape land, as he already owns some, said today: "The Fontana lands, thoroughly proven, are a genuine bargain at $450 an acre, with easy terms and sold under an arrangement by which they are taken care of for three years until they come into bearing. The land was piped years ago when labor and materials were much cheaper than at present, having been purchased at a very low price immediately after the San Francisco fire. This makes it possible to offer them at the low price. There certainly is no reason for going to San Joaquin valley or to Imperial valley when proven grape lands can be purchased for the same or less money at Fontana."
