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
