liven City In Syria.
Hama, in Syria, says writer in the
Wide World Magazine. is famed for
its huge water wheels, locally known
as naura. There are four of them.
and they are driven by the river Or
ontes. which flows through the town.
Each of the wheels bears distin-
guished name. and the visitor to the
city Is made aware of their presence
long before he sees them by the creak-
ing and grooming noise which grNsts
bis ear. At first it suggests pipe or
gan and later brass band practicing.
The wheels are built of dark ma
hogany. which gives them at dis
lance the appearance OF iron. The lar
gest of them boasts of diameter Of
seventy five feet and is declared to be
the biggest water wheel in existence
The naura are erected on what Is
known as the undershot principle
that is 10 say. they are driven by the
water striking them at their base.
They serve not only to supply the town
with water. but also irrigate the ad-
jacent gardens.
The wheels never stop. summer or
winter. and day and night their creak-
ing and grooming are heard. In the
summer months small boys may al
ways be seen bathing in the river In
the neighborhood of the wheels, and
for a small coin they will get in be-
tween the spokes of the wheels and al
low themselves to be carried around
many times or hang on the outside of
the wheel and drop back into the wa
ter when halfway up.
