The most aofficiaT' place in the.oc-
cidentaI-oriental city of Smyrna is the
building of the Y. w. c. A, according |
to Miss Jean Christie, associate head |
of the organization there, who has Just |
arrived in New York for summers
leave.
Representatives of nations which |
would actually refuse to meet each
other anywhere else congregate at our |
Monday afternoon teas" Miss CHRISTIE |
said, land apparently with complete
amiability. They are the most cosmo-
politan gatherings imaginable. Ameri-
can business men, Greek officials, an
Armenian bishop, Turkish officials,
the rector of the English church-they
all come. Fancy the Armenian bishop
and the Turkish official drinking tea
together! The United States consul
was so impressed with the assemblage
when the building was opened back in
February. 1920. that he reported to
Washington on the wonder of it. And
it never has lost that same impressive
place in the minds of all Smyrna and
its floating population, as well"
Miss Christie told of one American
who tried to go to the offices OF the
Standard Oil company and couldn't get
the taxi driver to take him anywhere
except to the Y. w. Three times he
was brought to the door, the third
time scattering fluent profanity about
him. I'VE always wear our war uni
forms when a passport or red tape of
some kind would otherwise be re-
CURED" she said. 1T gives us entree
