AMERICAN KITCHEN GARDEN
IN ANCIENT MONASTERY

8 According to Archbishop Khoren
of Erivan, Armenia, who has come
to the United States on special mis-
sion to President Wilson, the Amer
lean Near East Relief has leased
land from the ancient Armenian con-
vent at Etchmija DIN, Armenia, upon
which Armenian orphans between
the ages of and Is are being
taught market gardening, under the
tutelage of American Near East Re
lief workers. The Armenian legate
was sent to the United States by the
Kath olikos, George V, the head of
the Armenian church, to thank Presi-
dent Wilson and the Near East Relief
for the aid which has been extended
to the Armenians by American Phil
anthropy. He asserts that the Ar
menian people would undoubtedly
long since have persisted had it not
been for the aid extended them from
the United States, through theS Near
East, Relief.

W INSPIRING S
By E. S. G.

The advent of George M. Conan as
an individual producer since his disso-
luton of partnership with Ham H.
Harris has been eagerly awaited on
Broadway. Recently at the George
NJ. Cohan theatre-hereafter to be de-
voted to his productions-he faced
the world with Genius and the
Crowd but while he was playing a
lone hand as a manager, two authors,
John II. Mcintyre and Francis Hill,
were required to set the play in mo-
ton.
1t even was reported that Mr.. Co
han had himself welded a trusty right
in perfecting the play of these two
Philadelphia newspaper men. which
would make the title doubly signifi-
cant. But in the staging, the business
and all the details the Cohan hand
was played alone.
The play deals with a talented
young man on the threshold of brill
liant career. who is handicapped by
having such an overpowering infiu-
ence over femininity - though this
form of m esmerism isn't always con-
strued as a handicap by the self-con-
stituted martyr. When George Rena-
vet played this role in Chicago his
name told the world in flaming letters
