This Turkish house on the banks of the Vardar river at Gostivar in Western Serbia now houses a round dozen Americans, who are doing relief work in the Balkans under the A.R.C. It is typical of insolated residences in this country, its ground floor being solid masonry enabling the owner to resist attack from marauders at all times. The entrance can only be gained through the garden which is walled in. The windows are grilled because it was originally built by a rich Turk who had a harem, the members of which spent all their time drinking coffee and gazing at the snow-clad mountain peaks in the background. What happened to the Turk or his harem is not known to the present occupants, who are content with the comforts of the place and too busy with relief work to be interested in the former resident's family affairs
