Brussels lace, which surpasses in beauty even the famous Irish point, is coming on the market again. The Flemish lace industry lapsed during the war as it was carried or mainly in the present devastated regions along the Yser valley and to the north and east of Ypres.
 Approximately 5O,O0O women earn ed living in this way. They were instructed by nuns in some 160 schools of lace making, which are To- cated in convents.
