content: Film is intertitled as follows: Felled and stripped; To the yards for stacking and seasoning; Young saplings will be used as walking sticks and swagger-canes; For fishing rods; The finished article is a masterpiece of flexibility and durability; The bamboo is also transformed into a flute called "shakuhachi"; Baskets are among the commonest articles made from bamboo; Some of the most artistic are used for the esthetic art of flower-arrangement; what a romantic setting we have here with these charming paper lanterns whose skeletons are entirely bamboo; Japanese fans are consistently made from bamboo; Now for the Japanese paper umbrellas and dainty parasols.
