With improved building conditions coming a demand for American tools. In all the orphanige centers in Pales. tine, Syria, Greece and Russlan Ar- menia ‘the’ elementary prineiples of carpentry are taught. Practical training is given by having the boys make the necessary repa nd alter- ations to the orphanag aildings, which range from ware abandoned castles and arm. he latter are used to I nd girls fn Alexandropol, the metropolis of Russian Armenia. I It 15 in this area that the ravages of famine were most keenly felt a few i years ago. Here the juvenile masons |and carpenters have built a model village as a means of improving the housing conditions, While this so- | called mgdel village would not be rec. ognized as such in America, where porcelain bathtubs, tiled kitchens and cleetric labor-saving devices are in- {eluded when the word “modern” is applied to a home, the new dwellings tered in bufldings which they them- selves helped to construct with the aid of refugee labor. The erection of ! six dormitories, a hakery large enough to bake 10,000 loaves of bread a day, a public bathhouse, schools and work- shops afforded ample opportunity to train boys in all phases of buflding, from quarrying the stone found on the fsland fo the installation of con- crete, plumbing and the wiring of the buildings for electric lights. Incl- dentally hot and cold running water and showers in the dormitories were innovations. There is something rather dramatic in the fact that these modern_equipped buildings were con- structed by hgmeless boys who had made the pilgrimage to Greece from Turkey at the time of the expulsion of the Christians. Most of the boys who were instrumental in the devel- oping of Syra have now graduated from American care and are being employed in bullding refugee homes in Macedonia. Building Boom On. In the Near East a bullding boom is on, and, thanks to American philan- thropy in tralning the orphan child- hood, there is no dearth of skilled artisans, Altogether, the Near Bast Rellef, the organization chartered by Con- D. C, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 3, pared close to 100,000 boys and girls 1o take their places in the industrial and domestic life of the communities where they are expected to live. All must be ready to earn their own liv- ing by the time they are 15 or 16 vears old. Now and then some gen- erous-hearted tourist, impressed by the qualities for leadership shown by an orphan, makes it possible for him to continue his education in one of the American universities in Beirut or Constantinople.
