Ready for the Winter. A group of Montenegrin children, who have just received garments from the American Red Cross to protect them against the rigors of the Balkan winter.

So interested are some of them in what the bundles contain that even the novelty of having their photograph taken could not overcome their curiosity and excitement over the American gift
