BREAD is MISTAKEN
FOR CAKE By ORPHANS
Diet of Admiral McCully's Wards
Quite a Change From That
of Russian Home.

Are the six little orphan wards OF
Rear Admiral Newton A. McCully, who
were eating soggy black bread and
getting mighty few staples at this
time last year in orphanages Of Sc
bastopol and the vicinity. dazed by
the splendor of Washington, it's beau
tiful buildings and the general air
of comparative prosperity in this
country today?
At least, this is the resume of their
sentiments obtained through the eff
| forts of Miss Dorothea Gernova, ex-
| pert Russian linguist, at the Chill
dren's Hospital last night. as the
| the home of Rear Admiral McCully.
at 1921 / street, where they will spend
part of the winter, under the care Of
| their nurse, Mile. Eugene.
| The interviewer strobe out to the
| hospital with imaginings of a group
| of little children with non-pronoune-
| able names, goggle-eyed at the Won
ders of the city. He expected to find
| them speeches. with the glamour of
| their new life. And what he found,
| with the aid of the translator, after
| playing with the children for about
| an hour. getting acquainted. was this:
| There are hard times in Crimea and
! southern Russia. No doubt about it.
The bread eaten by the children here
is mistaken for cake. Their meals
are banquets. Everybody is very
| kind to them, but it's very seldom any
one comes up to them and pats any
| of the group on the head, asking with
a conglomeration of gutturals and
| labials. and now and then a vowel or
two thrown in for appearance sake,
how they like things here. That's the
| biggest trouble. Nobody here, scarce
| ly, talks Russian.
The eyes of the children are visit
full and far-away looking at times.
One or two Of them may stop during
the play and wander away from the
group, with sort of distant light in
| the eye. And the chances run a thou
sand to one that he or she would pre-
| fer the ragged apron and brawny
arms of a Russian mother or the rough
| boots and thick whiskers of a father
| at home to the ultra-refined surround
ings of an American home.
