Cloth From Bark of Tree,

The famous "tapa" cloth of Poly nesia is made from the inner bark of the paper mulberry. When of the fin est quality 1t is bleached- to snowy whiteness and fine as muslin. In trop- ical Africa the inner bark of a legu- minous tree is utilized in the same way. Indeed, 1t is surprising to learn how widely tree barks are employed as material for clothing the world over. And in the West Indies grows the "lace-bark tree" which yields a deli cate tissue so like lace that many arti- cles of feminine adornment are made from it.
