the Marshall Plan many new buildings are being erected The buildings are all low and the city is id out with squares which are som what like our parks They have benches and seats and are bordered with sidewalk cafes which are numerous throughout all the city The sidewalks are so congecd with people that many walk on the roads which slows uptraffic This is further hampered by the fact that law was passed prohibiting the blowing of horns on cars How ever as the mode of life is of an easygoing leisurely type with no mad rush at any time it usually does not cause undue concern Shopping districts are rather dif ferent in that one type of business groups together in one block an other type in the next and so on That is all shoe shops are together dress goods are together etc No dresses are sold ready made conse quently the dressmaking business thrives Wages are low but ac cording to our standards food is not expensive so the Greeks man age reasonably well Poverty is evident in all the smaller places mostly due to the effects of war Scarcity of Water The scarcity of water in Athens affects all phases of living as Athenians are allowed water only three days week and must fillall available vessels for the other days In some of the newer dis tricts there is no water at all and the people must buy it from wa ter carrier who goes by daily The warm climate means that everything closes for several hours during the day from one until 430 or five oclock for nap The stores open again until around eight oclock when everyone goes for stroll Dinner is served at 10 pm or later The drama theatres and musical concerts are very popular and are attended before dinner Miss Spanis was introduced by the club president Mrs Rodgersand thanked by Mrs Phillips Business Meeting Business
