The beggars and dogs OF CONSTANT
nople are perhaps the most omnipre-
sent componcnts Of this curious and
mixed city. The beggars, loathsome,
deformed, sightless army, line the
streets and send up day and night their
winnings for help.
The foreigner has invaded Turkey to
some extent and above many OF the
shops Of Constantinople are Italian,
French, English and Greek names. The
Turks themselves are very different
traders and cling TO their old-time
methods of sitting cross-leg on tiny
square OF mating in trout of their mere
holes or shops.
The magnificently built porters who
bear off travellers baggage to the ho-
tel in Constantinople. the instant the
customs officers have been appeased
are said to be able to carry four times
the load that a man can lift TO his shout
ders, thus demanding that some one
or more than one-must assist them "a
assume their burdens.
The dogs are, TO the foreigner, the
worst pest in Turkey. The streets Of
Constantinople are given up to the
NANCY. manned. famished droves which
insist upon occupying the best parts q
the pavement and snarl at the feet Of
the passers-by. There is rule thai
no one shall kill these miserable crea
lures, but on the other hand, no one
ever pets or cares for them.

THREE NEW YORK CHURCHES

The CALL this week presents It's readers
with some more pictures of the leading
places of worship in New York City.
The First Presb byterian Church Is the
oldest local society OF that denomination,
and is one of the handsomest and most
graceful edifces in the whole country.
The society was formed as early as l717,
and the early worship was held in the
City Hall The famous Wall-street church
was opened in .1719, and George White
field preached there in 1749.
The magnificent editice here presented
to our readers was erected in 1845 and is
located on Fifth avenue. between Eleventh
and Twelfth streets. The style in which
it is designed is rich Gothic. 1t is grace
fuI and stately Of proportion. The inte-
rior is very dignified and beautifully Or
namented. The first pastor who preached
to his flock in the old edifice was James
Anderson, man beloved of his congre-
CATION and known 10 Presb byterians for his
charity and the remarkable fervor he put
into his sermons. He was a Scotchman
and was installed in 1717. The present
minister of this new building is DR..
Howard Duffield and his congregation is
one of the largest and most influential in
the city of New York.
The Presbyterian church is to New York
what Congregationalism is to New Eng
land, and four years ago there were
no less than 10000 members enrolled
under its banners. The Presbyterian
churches in that city are divided into
three classes the Presbyterians proper,
the Reformed Presbyterians and the
United Presbyterians. The first is un-
doubtedly the strongest, as the others
have only few churches.
This church, situated on Four th avenue
near West Thirty-fourth street, is the
leading place of Unitarian worship in
New York. William Ellery Charming
preached a few sermons in that city in
1919, and the result was The founding OF q
society incorporated as the First Con-
EDUCATIONAL Church of New York" The
church was dedicated in 1920 and Edward
Everett conducted the services. Henry
