In W ide W orld Frank Hedges But­le r describes a vapor bath in the land o f the Lapps. H e says:

The bathhouse Is a small woodeu structure generally situated some way from the dwelling house. It ts divided into two compartments, one to undress in. while the other contains the oven which produces the steam. The oven Is arched with large stones or pebbles, and heated by a fire placed beneath.Undressing in the first room, one en­ters the heated compartment. A fte r u short rest on a wooden form or bench, which contains a place for the head, the attendants come in and bathe you.Cold water is thrown over the stones and the hissing vapor soon sends up a cloud o f steam. The higher you sit from the floor the greater the heat. A s more water Is thrown over the red-hot stones the vapor becomes so intense that one can hardly breathe. W e w ere soon gasping for breath and covered with a profuse perspiration which Is­sued from every pore of the skin.Hanging up In the room were tender branches or tw igs In a green state and retaining their leaves. D ipping these in water, the attendant began lashing and whipping me across the legs, shoulders, loins and back, till my body seemed quite red with the switching.The bastinadoing over, I w as then washed with a soft flannel covered with soap, a fter which a jug of the coldest w ater w as thrown over my head and body.

Aside from their achievements in other theatres of the war. Italy’s sol­diers have fought through fifteen fu­rious offensives on the Igonzn and the Plave, inflicting terrible losses on the Coe iii each. These cattipa’gus were

carried on in mountainous regions and under rigorous weather conditions that taxed fo the utmost the genius Of the military engineers and the endurance of the troops.

Over 2.500 miles o f roads have been constructed on the mountains o f Italy and o f A lbania, and 1.000 miles of aerial cable railroads (T e le fe r id ie ) have been built to carry food, ammu­nition and guns over deep ravines.

Economic Difficulties.The magnitude o f I Ills military effort

van be fully appreciated only when one !al**s !»••» considers!ion tlie economic s'm et tin* o f ihe nation and the nature and number o f Its population One must remember that out o f H6.0UU.Ot)0 iiihabtiants in Italy af the beginning id the wai only 17.000.000 were male.

It is estimated that on an average only 100 adults remained In each town or vil­lage to provide in eflch case for some 5120 children below the age o f fifteen.

F u n In nuore, the traditions of Ital­ian family life render the work o f their women an economic factor o f less im­portance than in some other countries, though It has been utilized to the ut­most and is becoming more available as old trudlrinns give way to w a r’s ne­cessity.

Italy got no help from colonial con­tingents. On ihe contrary, the scarcity of native irocps in Italy’s colonies compelled the got eminent to reinforce them wfto troops from the m other country Nor tuts help come to Italy through the eo-opcrutioii o f workmen of neutral or allied countries. Italy, on the other band, sent a large con l in gen i of skilled workmen to France, thus allowing her to release valued elements for w ar Furthermore, near­ly 500.000 ol our male adults residing in America gave to tb s great nation direct contribution to her econoii’iir and inilittH i efforts
