About 16 years ago Professor and
.Mrs. Barry came to Washington and
for many years be was head of the
modern language department at
Washington Slate College. Pullman.
In 1910 he retired from Washington
State College because of Impaired
health and moved to a ranch on
Coeur d' Alene lake, which he devel
oped Into a model fruit farm. At
the end of three years of farming he
had regained his health and came to
I Spokane, where he became a private;
j teacher and translator, doing much
i of the translation for the Old Nation
i
] al bank.
in the spring of 191 Professor
Harry was asked to fill a vacancy in
the modern language department at
j Whltworth. It was expected his work
| there would be brief, but his connec
tion with the college continued until
his death. On three occasions he
was asked to take Charge of the
| school because of changes in the
| presidency and he became acting
president the last time last May when
President A* G. Beatle resigned.
Speaking of the work of Professor
Harry at Whltworth, Professor J. H.
Beach of the faculty said yesterday:
"When the affairs of the college
began to be In bad shape it was nat
ural for every one to turn to Pro
fessor Barry. He always formed the
loud that held the jarring elements
together. Every one instinctively
i trusted him. It is no discredit to
others to say that no one else could
have rendered the service in critical
times that Mr. Harry gave.
"Professor Barry's personality was
a constant delight to his friends, lie
was intensely human, with the keen
est appreciation of a humorous situa
tion. Modest and unassuming almost
to the point of self-effacement, he
. was nevertheless a virile and rugged
character. His loss will be felt not
because he was all ideal teacher, but
! because he was in the truest sense a
'friend to man.' "
Professot Parry Is survived by his
widow, Clara 1... and daughter, Mar
garet, the latter a junior at Whlt
worth College.

CLEVELAND H. DODGE
New York Business Man De
scribes Vast Armenian Work
of Near East Relief.
Cleveland EL Dodge, New York bank
er and business man, director of the
National City Hank, and treasurer of
The Russell Sage Foundation and of
the Near East Relief, declares that
"a nation has been saved by American
philanthropy, and the generosity of the
American people through the Near
East Relief, In Its work for the Ar
menians.
"The lowest official estimate Indi
cates that one million persons are liv
ing today who would not be alive had
It not been for this relief." Mr. Dodge
continued, "I have an autograph letter
from Dr. 11. Ohandjnnlnn, president of
the Armenian Republic, In which he
writes: 'America literally saved us
f-oin starvation.'
"Wholly aside from adults who have
been saved from starvation, we today

have In orphanages and elsewhere un
der our care 110,000 homeless, father
less or motherless children who are
absolutely dependent upon us. This Is
exclusive of 63 hospitals with 6.552
beds, 128 clinics, rescue homes for
girls and unnumbered thousands of
refugees who are being helped through
our Industrial relief and in other ways.
"The Near East Relief has during
the >ast four or five years commission
ed and sent to the Near Bast more
than 1,000 American relief workers, of
whom 500 are still In the tiold, all of
them working at great financial sacri
fice—the standard of salary being $50
per month and maintenanceand
many of them facing great personal
danger and hardship In the perform
ance of their life-saving service. A
score of them have died from typhus
or other diseases more or less related
to their faithfulness In the perform
ance of relief service.
"Nor Is that all. We have raised
and disbursed during war times and
In a war-torn area. In large measure

--000,000 in cash, and, Including flour,
Red Cross and other supplies admin
istered by our agents, a total of cash
and supplies ln excess of $50,000,000.
The official reports show that on June
30, 1920, we had in orphanages 54,000
children, and that we are partially
supporting outside of the orphanages
50,039 children, making a total of 110,
--000 boys and girls now under the care
of the Near East Belief."
Mr. Dodge considers the work of the
Near East Relief one of the most
stupendous undertakings of disinter
ested philanthropy the world has ever
seen.
"It. countries whose population to
tals more than 30,000,000 souls, Ameri
can idealism exemplified by the work
of the Near East Belief constitutes
today a torch of enlightenment and . n
influence for peace throughout the
whole Near East," he maintains. "Our
American ideal of liberty, industry and
helpfulness has brought us as a people
happiness, prosperity and fulfillment.
Out of the fullness of this heritage
we are furnishing a faithful and un
daunted Christ!, d people the brotherly
aid which will enable them to reach
the same fulfillment that God has
given us.

American may well be proud."

Industrial Land, Oil
! and Gas Co.
——
Offers you an investment opportunity that is worthy of your moat
careful consideration. It combines safety with a reasonable cer
tainty of large returns. All red-blooded Americans are interested
in making money; and are more interested in making money by
oil development than any other natioality.
We assert it to be a fact that no field of endeavor affords the
American investor such spectacular possibilities as oil.
Up to this time three distinctly different forms of investment in
oil are offered— Leases. Royalties and Stocks.
It has remained for this company to invent another and vastly
more safe form of investment. Th is a form that is both safe
and sane from every conservative angle. Our redeemable Treasury
Certificates are this new form of investment securities. The pur
chaser of this certificate is protected for one year. The certificate
la redeemable in land on or before one year from its date. No de
velopment company has ever offered such an opportunity and se
cured it against loss by offering to give up a warranty deed to oil
land In event that the investor should prefer it. At the end of a
year's time the option is offered to secure our non-assessable stock
or the land. There will be so many winners in Montana that it
will be hard for an investor to go wrong. But pick out the one that
will win big—after all, it's the big money that you want, that is
why you invest in oil. Investigate the offerings, holdings and pro
gram of our company.
We own 5.320 acres in the Porcupine Dome, 1,120 in the Baker
Field of Montana and 13 acres in Texas and hold leases on some
valuable oil land in Montana, Washington and Oklahoma and this
company has for its directors two good oil men and the others are
first class business men of your home State and I would like to have
you call at our office and learn more of us as I have some of the
latest maps and photos of the fields and wells and would like to
show what this company has to offer you.
