Summary edit

Description
English: Title: The Draying Business in Bosnia. The pack mules have plenty of competition among the Turkish women when it comes to carrying heavy loads. The Mohammedan woman on the left is carrying more than the burro. Upon this group the American Red Cross was dependent for much of its firewood to keep its soup kettles boiling in Sarajevo, where it fed 5,000 undernourished mothers and children a day. This particular group gives a typical idea of the customs that prevail among Turkish women and men. The women always carry the heaviest burdens while the male member of the family staggers along under a small package weighing a few ounces
