Boar Hunt Dancers in Albania. One of the ancient folk measures in Albania is boar hunt dance which looks very much like the game of ring-around-a-rosy. Sturdy Albanian tribesmen, girded with heavy cartridge belts and decorated with long keen knives, romp and play in this primitive step like a bunch of children. These dancers were guarding an American Red Cross relief convoy into the Albanian mountains and put on the boar hunt dance as an exhibition for the American workers directing the expedition

City Life in the Balkans. In Monastir the river, fed by the snows capping the mountains in the background runs through the center of the city. On Saturday, the national wash day, the women wade into the center of the shallow stream and beat the clothes against the rocks until they are clean. Meanwhile the merchants sit cross legged in their open stores or on the edge of the embankment softly calling their wares to the passersby. The American Red Cross warehouse is at the end of this street and the group of American workers on the bridge stopped to be photographed while on their way to work

The Only Railroad in Albania. This is the Tirana Durazzo Express which like the Toonerville Trolley "meets all Boats". It is a narrow guage military line built by the Austrians during their occupation of the country. When they evacuated they destroyed all locomotives and the road was considered useless. Upon the arrival of the American Red Cross with relief supplies for the country, the American workers suggested real horsepower for the line, and this is the result. Many tons of Red Cross supplies have been carried over this line and it affords some relief to weary travellers in the country
